04:49After all, one form is much like another, do you not think?
05:05It is not yet right. See how the cuffs are an inch too short?
05:08Very well, sir.
05:11There is plenty of time to adjust it to your liking.
05:14The wedding is not for another month.
05:16There's still much to do.
05:17Will Miss Edwina be coming to live with us?
05:18Indeed. After the wedding, she shall be the lady of the house and responsible for you all.
05:22May the Lord help her.
05:23Which reminds me, our carriages must still be polished to a shine,
05:26and the horses' manes braided, and we should bring out the finest silver.
05:29We might be hosting everything at the palace, but we must still be ready to entertain here.
05:32What of us, brother? Should we also be polished and braided for the big day?
05:36We will all be on display. Perhaps you might even scrub your hands for the occasion.
05:40I've been occupied at the academy.
05:42What about Miss Edwina's sister?
05:43What about her?
05:45Will she come to live with us too?
05:46Oh, I do hope so.
05:47It would be a boon to have another intelligent woman in the house.
05:50Another?
05:51Hmm, you're over-counting.
05:53Eloise, I shall need your help today.
05:55There is the dinner to plan with Lady Danbury to welcome the charmers into the family,
05:59and then the engagement ball next week.
06:01I am sorry, Mama, but I am attending a lecture this afternoon.
06:05Flower Ranger.
06:07Penelope's Mama is forcing her to go, and you've wanted me to find more Ladylike pursuits.
06:12For how long have you cared about Flower Ranger?
06:15I'm an open-minded woman. I care about many things.
06:21I do wonder about the trim. Is it too much?
06:24Oh, nothing is too much now that the Queen is hosting.
06:27Let me show you the French too, Lord.
06:36Did I tell you we will be married by the Archbishop himself?
06:41Several times.
06:44We must find you a dress too.
06:46Oh, I have plenty of dresses.
06:47This one must be special.
06:49After all, this wedding is as much your triumph as mine.
06:53Whatever you said to the Viscount at Aubrey Hall, Dee Dee,
06:56it clearly swayed him to declare himself.
06:58I cannot claim credit.
07:00I shall bestow it all the same.
07:03It'll be so exciting living in London.
07:05The Viscount said there might even be snow this winter.
07:08Won't that be exciting?
07:10You must enjoy it without me, Bon.
07:11Recall, I am to set sail soon after you wed.
07:14But you will return to visit, of course.
07:16And when the Viscount and I are blessed with children,
07:19you shall be their favourite aunt.
07:21Think of us all together as a family.
07:27Would you not know why Miss Edwina's betrothal is so special?
07:29She's quite overshadowed my happy news.
07:32In fact, we may well be glad of.
07:34Put those silks down.
07:35Cotton will do for your truce, sir.
07:39Has my maid yet delivered that dress?
07:41I need altering Madame Delacroix.
07:42Naturally, Miss Penelope.
07:46I received your latest.
07:48It's been a busy week, is it, no?
07:50Indeed.
07:52The tone are quite ravenous for news of the upcoming nuptials.
07:55Perhaps Lady Whistledown will report that I have been entrusted
07:59with our diamonds wedding ensemble.
08:01Tell me, are my musings not offering you sufficient business?
08:04Indeed.
08:05But why should there be limits to a woman's ambitions?
08:08I would think you four people would understand.
08:11There's always more to be achieved.
08:20Thank you, Clara. That will be all.
08:26Thank you, Clara. That will be all.
08:27Thank you, Clara. That will be all.
08:37Lord Bridgerton?
08:38Miss Sharma.
08:39Lord Bridgerton and his guests are waiting.
08:42I see that. Thank you.
08:44This is the jeweller.
08:45We're here to have Miss Edwina's betrothal ring altered to fit.
08:48My apologies.
08:50But my sister and my mother have not yet returned home.
08:52Of course. Then we shall trouble you no further.
08:55Is that cake?
08:56It is indeed.
08:58Lemon?
08:58Pardon?
08:59I fancy a good lemon.
09:06Might I offer you some refreshment, mister?
09:09Brooks, only if you insist. I'd be churlish to refuse.
09:13Tea, three spoons of sugar and perhaps some sandwiches too, thank you.
09:46It is fine weather we're having Miss Sharma, is it not?
09:50You wish to speak to me of the weather.
09:52Is there another topic of conversation that would be more appropriate?
09:56There is nothing appropriate about what you are doing proceeding with this engagement.
10:00On the contrary, I believe it is the most proper outcome for all.
10:02Oh, and what of everything that passed between us at Aubrey Hall?
10:07Nothing passed between us.
10:10I am a gentleman.
10:12Is that so?
10:14Need I remind you, sir, if anyone other than your sister discovered us in the library that night,
10:19then we, too, would be obliged to wait.
10:22Nothing happened in that library.
10:24Though would the two of us being obliged to marry be the outcome you deserve?
10:27Of course not.
10:28Then let us both be glad we have avoided such an unthinkable fate.
10:34I say, Miss Sharma, do you and your sister happen to share gloves?
10:41I...
10:41Yes, on occasion.
10:43I knew it.
10:44I can take the measure of a hand at 20 paces.
10:47We may use your finger to size the ring.
10:50Oh, I beg your pardon.
10:51That shan't be necessary.
10:52Nonsense.
11:01Go.
11:19It is a beautiful piece.
11:28It is the ring my father gave to my mother before they were wed.
11:40Lord Bridgerton?
11:41They came to alter the ring.
11:43Mr. Brooks insisted.
11:47Just a moment.
11:50It appears to be stuck.
11:51Well, Edwina is here now.
11:53Yes.
11:54Kate, are you...
11:56Yes.
11:57Almost.
11:58Yes.
11:59Almost.
12:02Just another.
12:05There.
12:07All yours.
12:09Here you all are.
12:13I have news.
12:15Our grandparents.
12:17Indeed, it seems they read the engagement announcement and wished to make your acquaintance and that of your future husband,
12:23of course.
12:24I should be delighted to meet them.
12:26They are already in town.
12:27They arrived last night.
12:32Is something wrong?
12:33Not at all.
12:35I shall invite them to the engagement dinner tomorrow.
12:38I'm sure it will be a most joyous reunion after all these years.
12:44Yes, Lady Mary?
12:46Indeed.
12:48I shall look forward to it.
12:50Are you ready to promenade?
12:51I am, my lord.
12:54I suddenly feel a headache coming on.
12:56Oh.
12:57Lady Danbury, would you be so kind as to chaperone my daughter?
13:00Of course.
13:01Miss Sharma and I would be glad of the fresh air.
13:04Oh, I should really stay with Mama.
13:07You will escort me.
13:22Daddy!
13:25Whoa!
13:29I wish you every happiness.
13:32How could you invite the Sheffields to dinner?
13:35When you know full well the pain my mother has suffered after their rejection of her.
13:39Indeed, which is why I shall not answer their impoliteness with my own.
13:44And besides, is this not the reconciliation you wished for?
13:47Edwina returned to the bosom of the Sheffield family to reclaim the fortune you so desperately need?
13:53Yes, but not until after the wedding.
13:55Edwina is still in the dark about the conditions of their favour.
13:57And if the Bridgetons were to learn of it, they might feel...
14:00As if you contrived a match for your own concealed ends and might call off the wedding?
14:07I have to wonder if you might not secretly rejoice with a Viscount to break the engagement.
14:13Why would you ever say such a thing?
14:17They are betrothed.
14:20The Viscount made a charming proposal.
14:23Your sister gave her giddy acceptance.
14:25And in the eyes of society, and might I add the Queen of England herself, they are as good as
14:30wed.
14:31Only a very great scandal would prevent this marriage from proceeding now.
14:36The kind of scandal that would send alarms through the entire town and be a stain from which the penniless
14:44Sharma family would never recover.
14:45Only a fool would jeopardize the marriage now.
14:48No.
14:50So I ask you...
14:52Miss Sharma...
14:54Are you that fool?
15:04No...
15:09I did not think so.
15:12I did not think so...
15:12Lady Dame!
15:14Mr. Dorset!
15:16What a pleasure to see you here today.
15:19Miss Sharma, perhaps you would be so kind as to accompany me on a turn around the lake.
15:23I'm rather tired.
15:24She would be delighted.
15:29You're also a little angry of me over that business at the races.
15:31I wish to apologize and throw myself at your mercy.
15:37Very well, my lord. A turn would be most pleasant.
15:49What a handsome couple they make.
15:53Pardon me?
15:55Mr. Dorset and my sister.
15:57I noticed that he was quite smidgen with her the last time they met.
16:01Perhaps he will convince her to stay in England after all.
16:04She barely knows the gentleman.
16:07Nor did I you, at first.
16:09But love moves swiftly, does it not?
16:11Miss Edwina, you must tell me your favorite colors,
16:14so I may plan to incorporate them in the ornamentation for your engagement walk.
16:19You're too kind.
16:21Why did I not take this to you back?
16:23No, please.
16:34Is that not so, Anthony?
16:36Absolutely.
16:48Your sister seems happy.
16:51That is one way of putting it.
16:53New Lord Featherington seems an interesting fellow.
16:56A man of commerce.
16:57Is he not?
16:58Yes.
16:59He has ruby mines in America.
17:00They are flourishing, I hear.
17:02Well, perhaps I should introduce myself.
17:04After all, everyone else is finding some purpose to their lives.
17:08Anthony is to be married.
17:10Benedict has his artistic pursuits and, well, here I am, feeding the ducks.
17:18Well, I'm sure the ducks are most grateful.
17:21And you have a good deal of time and plentiful opportunities to make your mark.
17:24As Eloise would no doubt remind me.
17:26Where is your sister?
17:27Not seeing her out today.
17:29She mentioned something about flour arranging.
17:32With you, today, in fact.
17:34Indeed.
17:35I am meeting her later.
17:42This is the place.
17:44Doesn't look like a place or shopping to me.
17:47I'm collecting a unique gift for my brother's wedding.
17:51Miss?
17:52Miss?
17:56Miss, come on.
18:00This is our right to be treated not merely as chatterh measures.
18:03By the talk of rights, I must draw on Locke's treatise.
18:07You and your treatise.
18:08If you would have ever worked in Iron States Labour,
18:10you know how little such grand trupe serves a working man.
18:14Now, if I may be permitted to continue,
18:16I should like to propose to this Assembly the radical idea
18:20that it is not best for women to rely for their education
18:25on what boosted them by chance from their husbands and brothers.
18:31Is it not thrilling?
18:33You.
18:34Me.
18:35I told you I don't know anything about your whistled-down gossip.
18:38It's not her I see today.
18:40The exchange of ideas with like-minded men and women
18:43on subjects beyond the trivial concerns of polite society,
18:46ideas that you yourself invited me to consider.
18:49So you're an admirer of my work?
18:51We'll not go so far.
18:52It is serviceable.
18:54I suppose.
18:54And yet you have come far.
18:58You're a long way from Mayfair for writings that are merely serviceable.
19:03Luckily for me there is a thrilling invention called a carriage
19:06that may convey a lady from one place to another.
19:09It is a marvel to be sure.
19:12What's your name?
19:15Eloise Bridgerton.
19:16Pleased to meet you, Miss Eloise.
19:18I'm Theo Sharp.
19:19I know.
19:21You know.
19:24As I know, there are several errors in your arguments that I must bring to your attention.
19:28Have you a pencil?
19:30No, you may borrow mine.
19:46It's hard to find even a moment of peace.
19:48One of the things I enjoyed most when I visited India, many think it's a bustling, noisy place,
19:54but I found the country most tranquil in nature.
19:58There's a river just outside the home where I grew up.
20:01On hot days I would sneak away to soak my feet.
20:04The turtles and I became quite good friends.
20:06It sounds idyllic.
20:07It is.
20:09Which is why I'm counting the days until I may return home.
20:12I had assumed you would remain in England now that your sister is to be an adventure indeed.
20:18Do you have plans for your arrival?
20:20I shall teach?
20:22Become a governess, as you call it here?
20:30It will be most fulfilling, enjoying an independent life, running in my own household.
20:35And perhaps playing host to old friends.
20:38I have long thought to return to India myself, since there is much to be learned from their medical practice.
20:47If your travels do lead you there, then I would be most happy to show you the places I know.
20:55I should be working at the club, Alice.
20:58Not taking a stroll.
21:01This is work.
21:02We need more gentlemen members, and here they are.
21:05Mr. Mondridge, word of your prowess across the Atlantic.
21:09You got the better of McKellen in just two rounds, is that not so?
21:13That was a long time ago.
21:15I've been known to plant a few faces in the ring myself.
21:19But not up to your abilities, I'm sure.
21:23You must pay a visit to Will's club and talk more.
21:26You will find it enlivening.
21:28And as a warm welcome for all.
21:30That may be the most tempting invitation I've had in some time.
21:34Lord Featherington, a word.
21:37Excuse me.
21:38Need I remind you that the answer to our family's predicament will not be found disporting yourself in places of
21:43public resort?
21:44Nor will it be solved by running up yet more bills at the Mediste.
21:48I just saw the latest accounts.
21:49You are supposed to be finding a way out of this mess, not drowning us even deeper in debt.
21:54Keep your voice down.
21:55Are you trying to ruin us all?
21:57Not when you're already making such fine work of it yourself.
22:12I see you are smiling, Vivi.
22:14See the amusements London has to offer?
22:17There's what to do in India.
22:19My sister spares no opportunity to find reasons for me to stay.
22:23I may well join her in her endeavours.
22:25That knot will never hold.
22:26It is perfectly adequate.
22:28Then I must question your nautical skills daughter.
22:30Allow me.
22:37Pardon me.
22:44Miss Sharma.
22:44Lord Bridgerton.
23:07Oh my.
23:08Are you hurt?
23:10Not at all.
23:11The water is a rather welcoming refreshment.
23:14Is it not, Bridgerton?
23:16Woo!
23:19Refreshing indeed.
23:24Come now.
23:24It is not proper to stare.
23:51Elizabeth, what are you doing here?
23:53I thought we were to walk, as we usually do.
23:55My apologies.
23:56I'd quite forgotten.
23:57Oh, well.
23:59You bit quite the sea in the lake yesterday.
24:01My brother's in property swimming, as I heard all about it.
24:03Where were you?
24:05Alas, I was forced to occupy my day with tedious wedding errands, which Mama has listed me for yet again.
24:12I am sorry, Ben, but I cannot stall with you today.
24:15Well, she'll see you tomorrow, then?
24:16Of course.
24:26Pardon me, Miss.
24:32Miss Eloise seems to have misplaced her reticule.
24:34Well, when she was out yesterday, I'll be happy to retrieve it.
24:36Where exactly did she visit?
24:38You'll not find it again, Miss.
24:40I warned her.
24:41The streets of Bloomsbury aren't fit for a lady.
24:57What are you doing?
24:58Oh, Lord Featherington.
25:00Mr. Brooks here is just taking a look at some jewellery for me.
25:04It is a fine piece, is it not?
25:07Indeed.
25:08This is not a good time.
25:09He should return us another date.
25:11Nonsense.
25:12He's here now, and it is no trouble, is it?
25:28I was only planning to have the jewels cleaned, but tell me, what might a necklace such as that fetch?
25:34If it is of great value, I shall have to take more care.
25:38Well, I would require my proper tools for a definitive valuation, but I would say you should take very great
25:45care indeed.
25:47It is rare to see stones this fine.
25:50Now, is that not something?
25:54Thank you for your expert services, Mr. Brooks.
25:58I shall be in communication with you, should I require anything further.
26:01No cake, then?
26:02Another time.
26:07Need I remind you, though, stones was counterfeit as a two-pound note.
26:10Quality counterfeits.
26:12If they're good enough to fool that nibbling owl of a man, then we may well make it through the
26:16season yet.
26:18I do hope you know what you're playing at.
26:25Well, there is no need to dismiss any staff after all, Mrs. Varley.
26:28Hmm.
26:29Let us pray he's got a whole trunk of him, ma'am.
26:31One bauble does not a fortune make.
26:59I declare, that's rather good.
27:01I am skilled at more than simply standing naked, Mr.
27:07Bridgerton.
27:07I do not doubt it.
27:09Then perhaps inform the Academy.
27:11Although two of the founding members are women, we are still not yet allowed to enter the classroom.
27:16At least not while we're clothed.
27:19So, you work as a model as a way of learning from the lectures.
27:25And jeez.
27:26Care to take a turn?
27:27It is harder than it looks.
27:34Like so?
27:57Oh, my God.
28:05How long must I stay like this?
28:07That depends.
28:09What I really need is a study of the male form.
28:13The naked form.
28:17What say you?
28:40It is a lovely spot, is it not?
28:43It reminds me of the courtyard, the palace where we used to live.
28:48So calming.
28:53Calming, yes.
29:03Nobody would blame you if you were to take sick mama and send apologies for missing the dinner tonight.
29:09Lady Danbury has made it quite clear that it is necessary for all of us to attend.
29:19When was the last time you saw them?
29:23The night your dear father asked for my hand in marriage, I believe.
29:27Lord Sheffield made it clear in no uncertain terms that he did not support the match.
29:32So I had a choice to make.
29:34Between my family and my heart.
29:38And did you ever regret that choice?
29:45From the very first moment, your father and I were drawn together.
29:50It is a very powerful thing to meet someone and feel that you know them.
29:54In a way unlike any other.
30:02Still a rather high price to pay for love, I would think.
30:06Do not fret.
30:08Even my parents' presence cannot mar the happiness that is the occasion.
30:11I had always hoped that you and Edwina would be spared the choice between affluence and love and now you
30:17shall.
30:18Edwina is to wed her heart's desire.
30:21And you have always wanted nothing more than your freedom.
30:29Of course, Mama.
30:31We shall all be perfectly happy.
30:45Lord and Lady Sheffield's return is certainly a surprise.
30:50But it shall be pleasant to see the family reconciled.
30:54Will it not?
30:55I will be finished in a moment, Mother.
30:56We shall not be late.
31:05It is not that.
31:07I have been watching you all week.
31:10I told myself I would support your choice.
31:12But I must admit I am finding it quite difficult to continue to stay silent.
31:16You have been anything but silent.
31:18This is your petrosal, Anthony.
31:21Your marriage.
31:23To the woman that shall replace me as head of this household, might I add.
31:26You question Miss Edwina's suitability for the role.
31:28I question the example you are setting your siblings.
31:31Marrying a woman for whom you clearly hold no great tenderness or love.
31:39Why will you not accept that the love match between you and Father was the exception, not the rule?
31:44Because I wish for you two to know the joy of an exceptional marriage.
31:49You should be excited to wed Miss Edwina.
31:52But for all I have seen, you act as if you are approaching the gallows instead.
31:56If this is not what you want.
31:59You must say something now, Anthony, before...
32:01What I want is beside the point.
32:05I could never dishonor Miss Edwina by begging off now.
32:09You are right.
32:10A gentleman cannot take back his word.
32:14But a woman may.
32:16It happens all the time with young ladies.
32:18Swept up in the dizziness of receiving a proposal before the reality of marriage becomes clear.
32:23If Miss Edwina were to call off the engagement, no one would find fault with her.
32:28And you would not be dishonoring her in the slightest, releasing her from the obligation before any vows were exchanged.
32:38She does not wish to end the engagement.
32:41But does she know your true feelings on the matter?
32:45My feelings are of no concern.
32:47What matters is my responsibility, which has always been to wed.
32:55If you have doubts, do not simply set them aside.
33:01This is the most important choice you will ever make.
33:04And it would break my heart to see you spend the rest of your life in regret.
33:13I dare say it would break your father's heart, too.
33:31You seem distracted, Didi.
33:33Oh, it's, uh, just a headache from, uh, from all the excitement these days.
33:43Is that all that ales you?
33:44I have seen how ill at ease you are with the Viscount.
33:47I was hoping we had put all that behind us now that Antony is to be my husband.
33:52He has asked you to call him by his given name.
33:55No, not yet.
33:57But it sounds fine, does it not?
34:00Do you think the Sheffields will like this dress?
34:03My stomach is in a knot.
34:04I'm so excited to meet them.
34:06Before you do.
34:09There is something I must tell you about your grandparents and how they have, in fact, influenced our trip.
34:15Our guests have arrived.
34:24You may spare me the instruction, Lady Danbury.
34:27I know I am to be on my best behavior.
34:30You think me an unfeeling harridan.
34:33But perhaps it would surprise you to learn that I am hosting this dinner for your sake.
34:40Your sister's betrothal may be the end of certain hopes you harbored regarding the Viscount.
34:46But access to the Sheffield fortune would certainly be a fine reward, would it not?
34:52A life of independence is no mere consolation.
35:00Indeed, many would think it the better prize.
35:03After passion cools and fate intervenes, who else is a woman left with but herself?
35:16Come along.
35:18Our guests are waiting.
35:32Ah, Lord and Lady Sheffield, it is being too long.
35:36May I present Miss Sharma and Miss Edwino Sharma.
35:39Oh, my dear, look at you.
35:43Isn't she quite as lovely as the report said?
35:46You are too kind.
35:48I am most happy to make your acquaintance.
35:51We have been waiting so many years to meet you.
35:54I wish to know everything about you.
35:57Do you enjoy dancing?
35:58Music?
35:59You must accompany us to the opera.
36:01We have a fine box which has been gathering dust.
36:05Indeed, it has been too long since we have seen you both in town, Lord and Lady Sheffield.
36:08Yes, indeed it has.
36:12Mother?
36:13Father?
36:16I do enjoy the opera.
36:17My sister Kate is the one who introduced me to it.
36:23Shall we go through to dinner?
36:25Yes, come with me, child.
36:36And, of course, you must be our guests at the Sheffield Manor.
36:39It is nothing compared to the estates at Aubrey Hall, to be sure, but I think it a most pretty
36:44part of Hertfordshire.
36:45Do you shoot?
36:46We have a fine stock of birds and you're always welcome.
36:50Thank you for the invitation.
36:51I do enjoy shooting.
36:53As does Kate.
36:54The two of them almost beg to stag on our trip to the country.
36:58How unusual do they teach young ladies to shoot in India?
37:03Only the fortunate ones.
37:08Lord and Lady Sheffield, how long do you plan to remain in town?
37:13We should stay for the wedding.
37:14Imagine, imagine, the Queen herself overseeing my granddaughter's options.
37:20Her Majesty is kind to be so forgiving, after everything that has happened.
37:24No, no, we're all family.
37:27Oh, yes, of course we are.
37:29Even after our daughter so callously rejected the match we had found for her.
37:33And all, no less.
37:35With 12,000 acres, any other young lady would have fallen to her knees in gratitude that her parents were
37:43showing such care.
37:43Ah, this sauce is delicious, Lady Danbury.
37:45You must have your cook give mine the recipe.
37:47It is the gooseberry, I believe.
37:49Lady Sheffield, you've got quite the sweet tooth, I do recall.
37:53And all for what?
37:54A mere clerk, was he?
37:56And with a child from previous marriage with God knows who.
37:59My mother has a name.
38:01Lady Sheffield.
38:01We could not shaw our faces in society for years.
38:07Not that she should care.
38:08She simply sailed away from all of us with that man, robbing us of our grandchild.
38:13Grandchildren.
38:16I have two daughters with whom you have had every opportunity to form a connection.
38:21But the choice to shun us was yours alone.
38:23I beg your...
38:24And do not think I took it lightly, being cast out by the only family I had ever known.
38:29I was heartbroken indeed.
38:31But in time I came to see that in your cruelty, you did us all a great service.
38:35I hardly think this a proper dinner conversation.
38:37I quite agree.
38:38Please, correct yourself.
38:39When you cast me out, what you did was set me free.
38:42Free to raise my daughters far from your constant judgment and craven demands that they should chase wealth and titles
38:50above all else.
38:52Well, you are a fine one to talk.
38:54You speak of scorning riches and yet you have come crawling back to snatch at our fortunes.
38:59Lady D'Ambri is right.
39:00Believe me, I want nothing from you.
39:02Oh, you may not, but your daughter certainly does.
39:07Mama?
39:07The trust fund we have set up for her, the condition of which clearly states that she must marry a
39:13man of good English breeding to inherit.
39:17You did not think we would allow another generation to pollute the Sheffield name, did you?
39:23Didi, what are they talking about?
39:25What have you done, Anthony?
39:27Did you know about this?
39:28I shall explain everything.
39:30I see this one has inherited your penchant for avoiding the truth, or maybe that's something she inherited from her
39:35father.
39:35That is enough.
39:38I can only think that you have been exiled from good society because of your deficient manners rather than for
39:42any other sin.
39:43Since the moment you arrived, you have failed to show the proper respect for the Sharma family, and I will
39:47not stand for it.
39:48I will not stand for it.
39:51Lady Mary has done admirably in raising her daughters.
39:54They are intelligent, kind, loyal women, and a credit to both their parents.
40:01And since you clearly do not wish to jeopardize your social standing by associating with such company,
40:07Stand for Lord and Lady Sheffield's carriage.
40:09They can wait outside.
40:10And do not trouble yourself waiting for an invitation for the wedding, for you shall not receive one.
40:15This is beyond the pale.
40:19And if you think you shall inherit a single sovereign now, you are sorely mistaken.
40:42Lord Bridgerton, Lady Bridgerton, I must apologize.
40:45You should also take our leave.
40:46Yes.
40:47Thank you for the evening, Lady Danbury.
40:50It was quite enlightening.
40:52My lord.
40:53Good evening.
40:56You lied to me.
40:57Please, Bon.
41:10Lord Bridgerton.
41:13Lord Bridgerton, I beg a word.
41:16We must be going.
41:17Please.
41:21Mother, I shall meet you at the house.
41:33You must know, Redwina is innocent in all of this.
41:35She had no idea.
41:36Coming to England, finding her match.
41:38I only wished for the best for her.
41:39You cannot be angry at her.
41:41No, I'm not.
41:41It is clear she was as much in the dark as I was about your schemes.
41:45I take it there is to be no dowry now that the Sheffields have withdrawn their support.
41:48You, you care about a dowry.
41:50It is because of what you just did that the Sheffields withdrew it.
41:54It's regrettable to be sure.
41:56But clearly both Miss Edwina and I have been misled.
41:58And it is best to call off this doomed engagement before it is the cause of any more strife.
42:03Of course, I would never besmirch her reputation.
42:05My mother and Lady Danbury will make a plan.
42:07There should be no plan.
42:09I do not understand.
42:10Why are you suggesting this?
42:13All along, you have been set on marrying my sister, despite my every objection, might I add.
42:18And now you intend to cast her aside.
42:20Why?
42:21And do not talk to me of dowry, sir.
42:24For we both know you have no need of it.
42:26So tell me, what has she done?
42:28She has done nothing.
42:29It is you.
42:30You have made this match impossible.
42:32But I am leaving for India.
42:33And it is not far enough.
42:36Do you think that there is a corner of this earth that you could travel to far away enough to
42:42free me from this torment?
42:44I am a gentleman.
42:46My father raised me to act with honor, but that honor is hanging by a thread that grows more precarious
42:51with every moment I spend in your presence.
42:55You are the bane of my existence.
43:03And the object of all my desires.
43:07Night and day, I dream of you.
43:11And what I know.
43:15Do you even know all the ways a lady can be seduced?
43:20The things I could teach you.
43:25I did not ask for this.
43:29To be plagued by these feelings.
43:33Hiding from my sister.
43:37Being driven to distraction every time you entered the room.
43:41And you agree?
43:43It is insupportable.
43:46Impossible.
44:02If I were your sister, it will bind me and you together for eternity.
44:06And I will spend every day of my marriage haunting you, dreaming of you, dreading the day when my last
44:16thread of honor finally snows it.
44:19Is that the future that you want for us?
44:21For your sister?
44:29I must go.
44:54Oh, I must be sitting around like statues.
44:56I wish to be at a ball, showing off my new fiancée.
45:01Bali?
45:04Are you certain we have not received any invitations you may have overlooked for the evening?
45:09No, ma'am.
45:10There's been nothing.
45:11Perhaps the circumstances of Prudence's engagement has us on the outs yet again.
45:15So this is my fault?
45:16I did not say that.
45:17It is not as if you arranged to meet Cousin Jack and that orange redid you.
45:21We should merely be happy we still have a cook and a lady's mate each.
45:23Yes, ma'am?
45:35Not a single invitation since arriving back from the country.
45:38I shall alert the postal clerk.
45:40This is no joke.
45:42We are meant to be a distinguished family.
45:45But for years I have suffered the indignities of the tonne's disdain for one reason or another.
45:50Oh, they certainly liked us well enough when they thought you a plum catch.
45:53But now that you're spoken for, oh, we're outcasts again.
45:56All the more reason to end the sham of an engagement.
45:58It is not an option.
46:05Lord Cowper.
46:06What business did he have with you?
46:08He wishes to invest in the mines.
46:10Several of them do.
46:11Bored gentlemen with too much time and money on their hands.
46:13Take it.
46:14The mines are worthless.
46:15There are no rubies to be found.
46:17And how are they to know the difference?
46:18Are they to board a ship to the Americas?
46:23Are you serious?
46:24The future of this family hangs in the balance, my lord.
46:28I have never been more serious in my life.
46:31Get them to invest.
46:32Take every pound that they offer.
46:34Our fortunes will be restored.
46:37Prudence shall indeed have a fine wedding.
46:39And I shall never have to suffer the disdain of the tonne again.
46:58Edwina?
47:00Edwina?
47:01Edwina?
47:05Edwina?
47:07Edwina?
47:14Ever since the Viscount has been courting me, I have sensed you were not being entirely
47:18truthful.
47:19But now I know I was right.
47:29This business with the Sheffields and their fortune, you did not trust me enough to tell
47:34me what was really going on.
47:36I am truly sorry, Bon, for keeping both you and Mama in the dark.
47:40After Appa died, I took it upon myself to manage our affairs.
47:44I wrote to the Sheffields and after learning of their stipulations, I saw an answer to all
47:51our troubles.
47:52I thought I was doing the right thing by keeping you free from this burden, but you must know,
47:58it has weighed on me every day.
48:02I am not a little girl anymore, Kate.
48:07I am a grown woman now, ready to be a wife.
48:10Yes.
48:13Yes, I know.
48:21If Lord Bridgerton does not wish to end our engagement, then the Sheffield fortune would
48:28not matter, would it?
48:30Once I am married to the Viscount, there will be ample funds to provide for all of us.
48:34He is as generous as he is wealthy.
48:36I am sure the Viscount will provide for you and Mama too.
48:44He might, but Edwina, this should not be your burden.
48:50What burden would it be to marry the person I love?
48:55You love him.
48:57Watching how nobly he defended us at dinner tonight, how could I not?
49:04I want nothing more than to be his wife, his Viscountess.
49:12But he will have to forgive us.
49:15Do you think he will?
49:18That I do not know.
49:38I shall not be long.
49:47Do you not tell me you have travelled at this ungodly hour to offer more corrections
49:50of my writing?
49:51It was the only time I could leave without being seen, and on the contrary, I have come
49:55to ask for your discernment.
49:57Is that so?
49:58Do not look so pleased.
50:00It is a rare occurrence that I doubt shall be repeated.
50:04I have questions about the writings in this pamphlet.
50:07What?
50:07Well, the ideas can tax a fragile mind.
50:10Perhaps your means of communicating them leaves much to be desired.
50:14Perhaps you have not seen enough of the world to make sense of them yet.
50:17Ah.
50:21Ah.
50:21Ah.
50:22Ah.
50:22Ah.
50:33Ah.
50:33Ah.

51:28Ah.
51:32Ah.
51:35Ah.
51:37Ah.
51:46Ah.
51:46How could I?
51:49Have you decided what you will do?
51:56Long have I wrestled with it, but I see no other option.
52:01I will talk with Miss Edwina today
52:05and see my way to ending things.
52:07It is the only way to ensure that the two of us can be rid of this impossible situation.
52:11Once the engagement is over, our paths need never cross again.
52:18It will be as if we had never met.
52:23You cannot. You cannot do that.
52:25You cannot break my sister's heart.
52:28She is all things good and true, a kinder soul you will never find.
52:32She has loved me as well as any sister could,
52:34and I could not live with myself if I robbed her of her happiness and the future she deserves.
52:39I do not understand. You have been against this union from the start.
52:43I was wrong!
52:44I will not be the cause of you losing your honour any more than I can stand to see Edwina
52:49in pain.
52:50You once saw her as your perfect match, you will find your way to believing it again.
52:55Please.
52:56Please, Lord Bridgerton.
52:59Antony.
53:00You must keep your word.
53:01You must marry my sister.
53:03You must marry her as soon as you can.
53:04Because this feeling that plagues us so, it will pass.
53:07It will become tenable.
53:09It will become bearable.
53:10And soon enough it will be as if we never felt it at all.
53:13Mere passion.
53:13It must because it has to.
53:29Very well.
53:36I shall see that the wedding shall take place as soon as possible.
53:39I shall see that the wedding shall take place as soon as possible.
54:07Oh, my God.
54:57Oh, my God.
55:00Oh, my God.
55:30Oh, my God.
56:00Oh, my God.
56:35Oh, my God.
57:05Oh, my God.
57:35Oh, my God.
58:00Oh, my God.
