Transcript
00:00My husband, Norman Henry, was a good man, generally speaking, but he was also a man
00:14riddled with insecurities. You heard of Thomas Edison? What are you due for supper?
00:19Anyone here know a chap by the name of Mark Twain? Self-doubts. I see how she looks at you.
00:24My wife. And fear. Fear that the world was constantly laughing at his every move.
00:39This fear was not unfounded.
00:44You see, when he was just a boy, the world did just that.
00:48You're off-key. He's off-key. We've practiced this part over a hundred times,
01:00but some students are simply more gifted than others. And that's okay, Norman. Oh, darling,
01:08we're not done. Let's try it again.
01:18I'll admit my husband has a flair for the dramatic.
01:41Whether he was actually laughed at that day or not is quite beside the point.
01:46I'm really sorry about that. I'm really sorry about that.
02:02He would spend his life yearning for approval from a father who would offer him nothing in return.

07:55He's about to die.
07:56A creditor.
07:57He's a lawyer.
07:59Says so on his bag.
08:00My occupation and identity are none of your concern.
08:07I am looking for my client's wife.
08:09Evelyn Nesbitt Thor.
08:16Who?
08:18Huh?
08:19What?
08:20If you could show me the way to the main house,
08:23where the real people are.
08:26Okay, so, uh, Mrs. Nesbitt Thor.
08:43Oh, Mrs. Nesbitt.
08:46Huh.
08:47For the purposes of these legal proceedings,
08:50it is preferable for you to identify
08:52as your husband's property.
08:59Uh, well, okay.
09:02You are the lawyer.
09:04I am.
09:04So, let us begin.
09:09I'm so sorry.
09:11Right now?
09:11Yes, this very instant.
09:13We're due back in the city by 4 p.m.
09:14for you to be sworn in.
09:16Oh, how exciting.
09:18I will be speaking to you as though I were the prosecution,
09:21but rest assured, I am a friendly.
09:24It's merely an act for you to be prepared.
09:28I'm so sorry.
09:30What's your name?
09:31Delphine Delmas.
09:42Right.
09:43Well, um, you see,
09:46I have acquired an audience for my dress rehearsal,
09:50and, um, they're all waiting for us.
09:54Waiting for us?
09:57Mm-hmm.
10:01Uh-hmm.
10:07Uh-hmm.
10:09Uh-hmm.
10:12Uh-hmm.
10:14Uh-hmm.
10:15Uh-hmm.
10:16Hello, and welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the first and only dress rehearsal for...
10:43...the crime of the century.
10:55Isn't that good? We worked on that jingle together.
10:59Oh, God, sorry. This is, uh, this is my lawyer, Mr., uh, Mrs. Delphus Finimus.
11:04Uh, it's, um, Delphan Delmas.
11:06Right.
11:07Prickly fellow.
11:08Take a bow!
11:09I'm not your... I'm not her... her lawyer.
11:11Um, ma'am, ma'am, might I have a word?
11:14Okay.
11:16Um, wouldn't you prefer to do this in, uh, in, in private?
11:23Are you sure you don't want to do this in private?
11:29Mr. Delphus, am I not to testify in front of the entire world tomorrow?
11:32It's Delmas, uh, yes.
11:33I think the name is Demas.
11:35Demas?
11:36Yeah, Demas. Demas.
11:37Uh, okay. It's Delphan Delmas, uh, for those of you who aren't sure.
11:42Uh, ma'am, I do implore you to trust your husband's counsel on this.
11:46I believe that we should find a private suite and rehearse, uh, confidentially.
11:53Oh, Mr. Delphus.
11:56Come, now. I trust these people completely.
11:59My friends.
12:03I make, uh, the merde.
12:05Very well.
12:06Very well.
12:35Uh, Mrs. Thaw.
12:50Nesbitt.
12:51Nesbitt Thaw.
12:52Could we switch them, perhaps? Thaw and Nesbitt.
12:56Wouldn't you like that?
12:58I knew you'd understand.
13:01Uh, I'll start from the beginning, I suppose.
13:03Yes, of course.
13:06Um, where were you in Autumn of 1901?
13:11New York City, Manhattan.
13:15Uh, and were you romantically involved with anyone at that time?
13:19Yes, I was.
13:24Whom?
13:25Oh, um, Stanford White.
13:33Uh, I was like, I'm not sure how I could have this conversation.
13:35Oh, no.
13:36No.
13:37No.
13:38No.
13:39No.
13:40No.
13:41No.
13:43No.
13:44No.
13:45No.
13:46No.
13:47No.
13:49No.
13:50No.
13:51No.
13:52No.
13:53No.
13:54No.
13:55No.
13:56No.
13:57No.
13:58No.
13:59No.
14:00No.
14:01Yes, of course.
14:03Um, Stannie and I loved each other very much for a time.
14:05He was like a father to me.
14:06Mrs. Thaw, isn't it true that you performed sexual favors
14:09for Mr. White in exchange for cash and gifts and travel?
14:19Is this not a little crass for public consumption?
14:25The real prosecution will try to frame you
14:28as a common whore.
14:38A whore?
14:44Why?
14:46I mean, why would they try to paint such an ugly picture
14:49about a lady like me?
14:53Mrs. Thaw.
14:54Nesbitt.
14:56Mrs. Nesbitt Thaw.
14:58Did Mr. Stanford White have a studio apartment he kept in Midtown
15:02with a velvet swing hanging from a cross beam?
15:08Yes.
15:09And is it true that you would swing naked from the velvet swing?
15:17Sweet.
15:24It was all in jest.
15:26In autumn of 1901, did Mr. Stanford White not drub you,
15:31with your mother in the room,
15:32and penetrate you through multiple orifices?
15:33Yes.
15:34No.
15:35No.
15:36No.
15:37No.
15:38No.
15:39No.
15:40No.
15:41No.
15:42No.
15:43No.
15:44No.
15:45No.
15:46No.
15:47No.
15:48No.
15:49No.
15:50No.
16:03No.
16:04No.
16:05No.
16:06No.
16:07she was asleep my mother that was not my question
16:14yes yes he did this over and over again day after day month after month
16:17and in exchange he paid for your trips your schooling your apartment your particulars
16:22the very definition of a common whore
16:25oh well there are many words with multiple definitions you'll find for example the word
16:40i love you that is something that means a whole lot more to us women and when mr white tired of
16:45you did you not turn your attention to mr harry thaw's fortunes in an act of selfish desperation
16:52i don't seem to know is it not true mrs thaw that you crafted a surgical campaign
17:01to target mr harry thaw to fleece him for cash and gifts and trips
17:10to fleece him like a sheep
17:13don't be smart a smart young lady doesn't play well with the jury
17:24well what definition are you using to define the word smart
17:29you see it's all objective isn't it traveled to paris at no expense of your own
17:32your mother traveled to paris at no expense of her own
17:41so i must ask what was the currency
17:51kindness
17:54i believe the currency was was companionship and loyalty and friendship
18:02and the trip was a gift from harry
18:10our gifts are no longer acceptable practice from a husband to his wife
18:21yeah is that good
18:23and come to think of it i do believe i know where you're going with this mr ephraim
18:32and it is downright shameful
18:36because my body is and has never been currency
18:41not for gifts or trips or any other thing
18:51it is delmas
18:56you call it companionship and loyalty
19:01i call it sex acts and role play risqué role play for that matter which you performed
19:07in exchange for a home and a life of status so
19:11disguise it as you will mrs thaw but the truth remains
19:17that you reek of putrid desperation
19:22you are as every woman who trolls the lower east side of manhattan between the hours of 10 pm and 2 am
19:29i can smell the rancid stench from here we all can
19:42did you knowingly withhold the fact that you were indeed not a virgin when you met mr harry thaw
19:46did you knowingly withhold this information because you knew that you might be able to swindle him more efficiently
19:53did you in fact steal money from mr harry thaw under the false pretense that you were selling
19:58him your virginity and when he realized that you had been lying to him he had a mental break
20:02which caused him to fatally injure mr stanford white
20:06so in fact was it not you mrs thaw who is to blame for the untimely demise of mr stanford white
20:15it is your fault because you are a dirty whore
20:33how dare you
20:37how dare you
20:41me wasn't it me
20:46because i didn't want to sleep with harry
20:50i didn't want to sleep with him okay i didn't want to sleep with him he was a beast and he hurt me and
20:58he whipped me and i didn't want to sleep with him now and i don't and i never will and he knew that
21:06because a woman doesn't always need to be explicit
21:10she doesn't
21:14okay why the fuck does being a woman always have to be so explicit
21:20do you think i wanted paris well you certainly wanted something i didn't want paris you never asked me
21:29what i wanted i wanted clothes and a bed that i might call my own
21:35and i wanted to stop supporting my whole family but i didn't want paris
21:47and you can all sit here and judge me but i am not a whore i am not a whore
21:53i am not a whore i am a girl i'm just a girl i'm i'm i'm i'm i'm evie mama i'm evelyn

22:56i believe the shame felt in this room
23:03is enough for us all
23:16man's life hangs in balance a murderer

24:06Back to work, a lot of you.
24:34Up, back, out, everybody out, go, go, go, go, out, out.
25:04Norman would hold her for hours that day.
25:13Intent on being the parent that neither of them had.
25:17No.
25:24No.
25:26Evelyn had told us that it was common practice for her mother to take long walks, unannounced.
25:52I'm so sorry.
25:56I'm so sorry, my daughter girl.
26:00She told us to send word when her mother arrived back at the estate, and they'd have Harry's driver pick her up.
26:13But Mrs. Nesbitt never returned to the house.
26:17I'm so sorry.
26:23Nor would she see her daughter.
26:26Not ever again.
26:35I do believe after the mock trial, the atmosphere in her home had changed ever so slightly.
26:42A lingering air of forgiveness and gratitude, albeit brief, would blow through with the wind.
26:48I do appreciate your kindness with me these past few days, Mr. Henry.
27:01And you too, Mrs. Henry.
27:15The time has come, Mrs. Nesbitt talk.
27:18Chin up.
27:27Gets better.
27:31Mr. Henry.
27:33You've got nothing to worry about.
27:35I'm the girl on the swing.
27:42I believe you're much more than that.
27:46Yes.
27:48So do I.
27:49All right.
28:07Look, I shall only say this once, so listen with your hearts.
28:10The next time you see me, it shall be my name in lights.
28:19And when you do, I urge you to remind yourselves as of why.
28:23It is because I will have broken free.
28:27At all costs.
28:35Evelyn Nesbitt would soon see her name in lights.
28:48She would, in fact, fulfill her promise to her mother.
28:52She'd become the most famous in the entire world.
28:57I will be a great big stage actress.
28:59You will have.
29:00And everyone will love me, mother.
29:02They will not love me.
29:03But what she truly desired was unconditional love.
29:07And it was this that would elude her until her dying day.
29:13Evelyn had gifted us a valuable lesson that day.
29:17That our destiny resides solely in our will to break free.
29:22After that speech, really?
29:31Okay.
29:33So, are you looking to ask me something?
29:43Well, it's just that it's Christmas Eve.
29:52Yeah, well, um, I don't celebrate.
29:57Sadly, my family perished.
30:00Oh.
30:02You said you had a sister?
30:07She's an artist.
30:08I don't, I don't, I don't, I don't celebrate either.
30:18But for other reasons.
30:23Ah, yes.
30:24Yes, right.
30:28So, um, are you looking to ask me something?
30:33Well, um, we could not celebrate together.
30:48Okay.
30:52Norman, are you awake?
30:54Well, um, I don't know.
31:21All right.
31:47I'm okay.
31:49Yeah.
31:51Go back to sleep, Norman.
31:53What's wrong?
31:55Nothing.
31:56We're going to be okay.
31:58We're going to be okay.
32:07But unfortunately, this could not have been further from the truth.
32:18Is there two?
32:19Putain de merde.
32:30We bring you news from the courthouse, lower Manhattan district, in the Thaw trial, where
32:44his wife, Evelyn Nesbitt Thaw, has just taken the stand dressed as a schoolgirl.
32:48Exuding a sense of calmness, you normally only find in the male persuasion.
32:52But nonetheless, this reporter could not help but take note of a certain quality one might
32:57find in a silent picture actor.
32:59After Evelyn had left, I had this feeling that our situation might improve.
33:12Looking back now, I suppose I was a bit lovestruck again.
33:19We had entered a dream-like state, one of companionship, and happiness, and trust.
33:28All of my experiences, had they led me here?
33:41To this moment, to this moment, to a moment of grace and love, where my husband might be willing
33:49to accept the impossible?
33:50He did not finish the fucking evening!
33:51He did not invent the lightbulb!
33:52I did not invent the lightbulb!
33:53I suppose you know who did.
33:55This secret I had held so deeply within.
34:00I had even convinced myself it was not true.
34:04But for the first time, I had felt like maybe he could hear my truth and set me free.
34:25But while I would grapple with the right moment to confide my secrets to Norman,
34:53Edgar and Lilith were grappling with a truth of their own, that they might never return
35:04to Paris.
35:05It's not easy to return to the inevitable.
35:08What are you talking about?
35:10Not just you, it's not you.
35:12It's a reason for her to look away with my actions.
35:15You're obsessed?
35:16That's what the way she looks like.
35:17The way she looks like.
35:19The way she looks like.
35:20Now.
35:23Oh, you're obsesed.
35:25Of course.
35:26That's what I am.
35:28I am artist.
35:30She doesn't love you.
35:31He doesn't love you.
35:32He has to be on the board.
35:33This mounting desperation paired with Edgar's obsession
36:03had begun to weigh heavily on me.
36:07How much longer could I protect my husband...
36:10I don't get it.
36:11...from the inevitable?
36:12Well, you don't read very often.
36:15No, I just don't get the hyperbole.
36:19It's not hyperbolic. Do you even know what that means, Newman?
36:24No. Just sounded good for the moment.
36:33Excuse me.
36:37Pardon.
36:38Yeah. Hello.
36:41Adepreza.
36:46Yes.
36:47Will he be here today?
36:48Of course.
36:49Um, I'm not sure.
36:51He said he'd fit it in as he could.
36:54Well, I've been waiting very, very patiently for days.
36:58Very, very patiently.
36:59I would like to go home.
37:00I've been waiting very patiently.
37:02Well, you are still, uh, occupied on a project, are you not?
37:07My wife told me about your portfolio, your work.
37:12Sounds quite exhaustive.
37:15Uh, happy to hear you're intrigued with our ballerina.
37:18Lilith?
37:19Lilith, yes. Lilith.
37:21No, I have decided against it,
37:22which is why I am here inquiring about the appreza.
37:28I just said I will no longer be painting your ballerina.
37:34Um, and why very well not?
37:37What happened to your, uh, passions and desires and, and, and, um, passions?
37:44It seems that passion and desires are very, um, fleeting in this house.
37:54Uh, um, they change on a whim.
38:01Like hobbies, eh?
38:03I beg your pardon.
38:05My wife is nothing of a hobbyist.
38:07No, no, no, quite the contrary.
38:09I know, Mr. Henry.
38:10I, I know your wife very well.
38:15Um, that's a very inappropriate statement, don't you think, artist?
38:21Sooner or later, we will all come to terms with this, uh, masque charade.
38:29We, we will all come to terms with this, with this masque charade.
38:37Masque charade.
38:38He was not wrong.
38:46We would soon all come to terms with the house of cards my husband had built.
38:51But at this moment, I was concerned that for Edgar Degas,
38:56the statement was far more nefarious.
38:59Norman?
39:14Norman, are you awake?
39:24I hear a sound from your vicinity.
39:26Are you awake?
39:27Are you sleeping?
39:31Oh my God, you've been killed.
39:47Come out, you fucking coward!
39:48Is that you?
39:56Marion, if you're trying to kill me, there are simpler ways.
40:01He was right.
40:02There were easier ways to see him in a box six feet under.
40:06But nothing would come easy for Norman Henry, not even his death.
40:11What I can divulge is that the sword was sharp, and the cut was quick and clean.
40:19Now you have me getting ahead of myself.
40:22This chapter was about love.
40:27Let us simply leave it at that.
40:29We'll see you next time.
40:30We'll see you next time.
40:59We'll see you next time.
41:16Bye-bye.
