Short filmTranscript
00:01Dear Persephone, we've been home for two days now and I am nearly dead with boredom.
00:06Athena spends all her time practicing country dances.
00:09I do not think she will find a husband dancing like she does.
00:13No gentleman would want to marry someone who dances like a cow.
00:17I am running around like a heathen and terrorizing the neighborhood.
00:21It's lovely. I wish you were here so we could be heathens together.
00:26When can I come explore your towers? You did promise.
00:30I will have my birthday in London, Daphne says. I will invite you.
00:34If the Duke wants to come he can too, even if he never did talk to me once while I
00:39was at his castle.
00:41Please write to me. Be sure to put the guinea under the seal.
00:45Your sister Artemis.
00:51You seem in good spirits this afternoon.
00:54I've been reading a letter from my youngest sister, Mr. Windover.
00:58We are practically brother and sister. We needn't be on such formal towns.
01:04Do you miss your family, Harry? Being here as long as you have been?
01:09I consider Adam my brother. Being here is being with family.
01:16How is it that the two of you are so close? He is so hostile towards you.
01:23Adam is hostile towards everyone. It is just the way he is.
01:28Does he never show any tenderness of feeling?
01:34Not in the two decades I've known him.
01:37And you forged a friendship with someone who was already adversarial?
01:43Adam saved my skin.
01:46I was something of a runt.
01:48And the other boys at Harrow found their grounds for torturing me.
01:53Adam could have stopped that.
01:55They took orders from him.
01:56They were afraid of him.
01:58They still are.
02:01Everyone is.
02:04But he would have only been seven or eight years old.
02:07Seven.
02:08He was a force to be reckoned with.
02:11By the time he was a shell, he ran Harrow.
02:15Shell?
02:15The youngest, yeah.
02:17Some of the boys now grown gentlemen, of course.
02:19Still whimper when they see him.
02:21To be so utterly terrifying when he was only a child.
02:26It wasn't that, exactly.
02:29He was...
02:31Still is remarkably intelligent.
02:34And he is authoritative.
02:36Kind of man few people question.
02:39Even at seven he was very much that way.
02:42And he is utterly unafraid.
02:46There is nothing that frightens him.
02:49Nothing that intimidates him.
02:58Why won't he ever look at me?
03:02What do you mean?
03:05Never mind.
03:10He never looked at you.
03:14Huh.
03:16That is out of character for him.
03:19Adam usually faces problems directly.
03:21I'm a problem, then?
03:23A poor choice of words on my part.
03:27A great deal has changed lately.
03:29Adam does tend to get more...
03:32I don't know.
03:36Quickly.
03:37When he has a lot in his mind.
03:39So you're saying I shouldn't give up yet.
03:42If I had given up on Adam for being grumpy, we wouldn't be friends.
03:47How long did it take for him to stop being prickly with you?
03:51He still is.
03:54Adam would never admit it.
03:56But he knows I refuse to be bullied.
03:59And I think he respects that.
04:01He keeps trying, but I think he hopes it'll never work.
04:05So he doesn't like people who are intimidated by him?
04:09He doesn't respect them.
04:11That is a little different.
04:13It is a great deal different to Adam.
04:15Adam likes his mother.
04:17But he doesn't respect her.
04:19Mother Harriet, I've called her that since I was a boy,
04:23has made something of a hobby out of pitying Adam.
04:27And he doesn't like that?
04:28Frustrates him.
04:32Frustrates him.
04:36If Adam does not like people to be afraid of him,
04:39why does he go to such lengths to make certain they are?
04:44I have my theories.
04:47But Adam's motivations are not a topic I am willing to discuss.
04:51I am attempting to find my place here and claim a degree of equanimity with my new husband.
05:00I need help if I am to have any hope of understanding Adam.
05:05Most people do not even try.
05:07But he is worth sorting out Persephone.
05:10I promise you.
05:13He is.
05:20He really never looks at you.
05:26Something about you has ruffled him.
05:28Nothing ruffles at him.
05:56Nothing ruffles at him.
06:04Just so your grace, he is a bit skittish this morning, it being so cold and all.
06:08Haven't you a horse that isn't skittish about cold?
06:10What?
06:11Atlas behaves in the cold.
06:13Who named the horse Atlas?
06:15His grace did.
06:17And his grace does not think it a ridiculous name?
06:20It being Greek and mythological.
06:23He named his own monk Zeus.
06:25That would be one of them heathen gods and all.
06:28Such names are not ridiculous for horses.
06:33Then I had best such the forest for a sorceress to transform me into a horse.
06:37Lest I spend the rest of my life doomed to a constant state of ridiculousness.
06:42You would make an atrocious horse Persephone.
06:44On that we can agree.
06:53What brings you out the silly?
06:56I was hoping to attempt to ride again.
06:58How long have you been out of the saddle?
07:00Ten years.
07:04Ten years?
07:05And you were going to attempt to ride alibi?
07:07I know you, Grace.
07:08The Duchess was just asking if you were ailing or upset.
07:12I was thinking Atlas would be good for a Grace.
07:16It's a good choice.
07:20Are you really going to try riding again?
07:22To be perfectly honest, I'm not certain one could accurately call my previous experience riding.
07:28Our neighbours, the Uptons, allowed me to ride a pony of theirs on occasion as a child.
07:32If memory serves, it was aged and did little more than shift its weight.
07:37Stay, stay.
07:40She's calm and steady, Grace.
07:42She'll not hurt you.
07:44May I feed her a carrot?
07:46The Uptons pony was swanned of carrots.
07:48Well, perhaps the poor thing waddles so much because he was overfed.
08:01I've seen Atlas Pot Company see to it that Joan has her brought up to the castle.
08:06Don't you want to even see her try?
08:07I've seen enough people quit in my lifetime without witnessing the same thing again.
08:11I think she'll surprise you.
08:22Hey, I guess I'll know they're wrong.
08:24Abner?
08:25Yeah.
08:25Probably Honest moments.
08:27Oh...
08:45jokes
08:4601
08:4701
08:4801
08:5001
08:5001
08:5001
09:09You've had quite a few writing lessons now.
09:11Are you feeling more confident in some?
09:13Quite a bit more.
09:15Tomorrow I intend to attempt to jump the castle wall.
09:18Atlas doesn't know yet.
09:22Just my luck, I'll miss that.
09:24Miss it?
09:25I am for Hoyk in the morning.
09:28You're certain you couldn't leave tonight?
09:32Do you go to Scotland often?
09:34I have an aunt and uncle in Hoyk.
09:36They're always asking me to come for a visit.
09:38And I'm always asking you to leave.
09:40How is it that their requests are adhered to and mine are ignored?
09:44Because I know you do not actually want me to go.
09:54I've never been to Scotland.
09:55You live a stone's throw from it now?
09:57Perhaps you and Adam could gad about Hadrian's Wall sometime.
10:00I do not gad about.
10:02I have not ever been to Shropshire, though I hear it is beautiful.
10:07I admit to being very biased on the matter, but I think it is the most beautiful area of England.
10:13All my family does.
10:15Athena waxes poetic about it quite often.
10:17Evander's letters regularly mention Missing Shropshire.
10:22Have you heard from either of your young Navy brothers recently?
10:26The last letter I had from Evander indicated the triumphant the ship they are serving on was not far from
10:31Spain.
10:34A great deal of activity in that part of the world just now.
10:41I worry over the boys almost constantly.
10:45And I worry about my sisters and my father.
10:49About quite a few people, truth be told.
10:55Well, rest assured, Persephone, you needn't worry about me while I am away.
11:00My aunt and uncle will fuss over me more than sufficiently, leaving you ample energy for gadding about with Adam.
11:07I do not gad about.
11:22My uncle and uncle would fuss over me.
12:12good afternoon adam i will not intrude on your solitude fellow this has arrived and i wish to
12:18explain please sit i'm fine i'm not asking for your comfort but for my own i have no desire to
12:28strain
12:28my neck looking up as you loom over me now will you open the parcel you said you wanted to
12:43explain
12:43after you
13:01you cannot ride without a proper riding habit i ordered it because you need one and i did not
13:07think you knew how to obtain it you ordered this for me so now that it is the color you
13:13would have
13:13chosen but on blue seemed a good option you'll need it when you ride regardless of its color
13:21you must have great faith in my abilities to learn to ride thus far i'm proving a very poor pupil
13:29quite a bit better yesterday you watched me
13:34with harry gone i have a lot of time on my hands your boots will take longer to arrive
13:38well you've ordered boots for me as well oh yeah that was only appropriate for riding
13:42i haven't been wearing slippers yes i just want to be
13:49i don't know what to say adam it's not necessary for you to say anything i only wish to explain
13:58thank you adam this is probably the most beautiful thing i've ever owned and it'll be warm you chose
14:06good color i do like blue oh i um i nearly forgot this has arrived for you as well
14:18I shall leave you to your letter.
14:36Mr. Stephanie?
14:40There has been a battle at sea.
14:44I think I keep Trafalgar.
14:47I try to sustain heavy losses.
14:52Your brothers?
14:56Linus' feet is unknown.
15:05Evander is dead.
15:26No!
15:29No!
15:31No!
15:35No!
15:36No!
15:40She's in pain.
15:43And I can't do a blasted thing about her.
15:47Having the first idea where to stop.
15:52When Mother was distressed, she just left Faustin.
15:59Sefony hasn't left yet.
16:02So what do I do?
16:05I don't want her to be miserable.
16:08I need it.
16:13Dukes don't need people.
16:19Mother has always preferred being away from me.
16:24Sefony will as well.
16:30If you don't want her to be a puppy, please.
16:35You're okay.
16:37Oh, you're okay.
16:48Um...
16:49Oh, no.
16:50Oh, no.
16:51Oh, no.
16:52Oh, no.
16:53Oh, no.
16:54Oh, no.
16:54Oh, no.
16:55Oh, no.
16:55Oh, no.
17:20Adam, I think I hear wolves.
17:50I'm trying to be brave, Adam.
18:19I'm trying to be brave.
18:55I'm trying to be brave.
19:11I need my family.
19:13I'm trying to be brave.
19:42I'm trying to be brave.
20:06I'm trying to be brave.
20:09And wake up with a headache.
20:12That was awful.
20:21I'm trying to be brave.
20:39I'm trying to be brave.
21:09I'm trying to be brave.
21:39I'm afraid I overslept.
21:42And how was your head?
21:43My head.
21:45You said last night that your head hurts after you've been crying.
21:50Does ache a little?
21:53There is an apothecary in Sifton.
21:55He's quite competent.
21:57I could send one of the grooms for some powders.
22:01Don't need any powders just now, but thank you.
22:09John has indicated that Atlas can be saddled whenever you would like to have your riding
22:14lesson today.
22:16I'm not sure I'm up for a ride.
22:20Are you certain you do not wish for some powders?
22:23I could have some here before the weather changes.
22:27Rest is what I need most.
22:29But again, thank you for offering.
22:32Yes.
22:56Urgent message for your grace.
23:07Tell the stables to prepare my swiftest travelling coach and send someone to Sifton for Mr. Johns.
23:11Yes, your grace.
23:11Are you leaving, Adam?
23:12Almost on the instant.
23:13Tell Mrs. Smithson to prepare Mr. Windover's usual room.
23:15Is something the matter with Harry?
23:17He's taken exceedingly ill as an in-between here and Owick.
23:19What are you intending to do?
23:20Go retrieve him, of course.
23:22If the stables will ever send my carriage, that is.
23:25It looks like it might snow.
23:27That's precisely why I wish to make an immediate start.
23:29But is it safe?
23:30If the weather worsens, you might become stuck on the road.
23:32I can reach the inn before then.
23:34How will I know you're safe?
23:35If I do not return tonight, you can assume that I am waiting out the weather at whatever
23:39flea-infested hostelry Harry's decided to take ill in.
23:42I will assume no such thing.
23:44Simply not returning will tell me nothing.
23:46You could just as easily be half frozen on the side of some road, or devoured by wolves,
23:50or ill yourself.
23:51You've driven these roads for years.
23:52I've never once broken down.
23:55You must promise me you will be careful.
23:57If you do not, I will worry.
24:03Why would you worry about me?
24:06Why wouldn't I?
24:10No one worries about me, Persephone.
24:15Someone does now.
24:19Don't.
24:21Afraid I can't help it.
24:22Like crying?
24:28Worrying will probably give you a headache as well.
24:31Then spare me the headache and promise me you will be cautious.
24:44I will be cautious.
24:47I will be cautious.
24:48Do you think?
24:49Just caso on you.
24:51See you.
24:52I will be cautious.
24:53What is present?
24:53Well, I can't weather.
24:59Going down on the drain.
25:06And I am, too.
25:08I am on this blanket.
25:12I am.
25:12Point points.
25:13I do peux.
25:13organk?
25:17Let's go.
25:40Where is the owner of this establishment?
25:54What can I do for you, Governor?
25:56There is a gentleman staying at this inn, Mr. Wendover.
25:58Where is he?
26:05How much is no one worth to you?
26:08Do you like your waive begging me pardon?
26:10I beg no one's pardon. Where is he?
26:13Settle the golf's bill, then I'll tell you.
26:18His bill will be settled in the usual manner upon departure.
26:23I'll be adding to the bill then. Inconvenience, you see.
26:27If you're in mind to toss a few extra pounds, you might save yourself some blood in the end.
26:32A few extra pounds.
26:34What do you feel you are currently owed?
26:36Can't say really. It goes higher all the time, doesn't it?
26:40I got a few shillings been added since we've been talking.
26:48Where is the gentleman who's staying here?
26:50I'll call your accountant.
26:52You, Wendover.
26:53I ain't got a shilling.
26:57A half-crown?
26:59Where is the gentleman who's staying here?
27:02First door on your right, Governor.
27:03Step to Wendover.
27:31If you're dead, don't expect me to eulogize you.
27:35even to tell me to shut up one last time
27:40what instructions did the physician leave
27:45I haven't seen one
27:47was one not sinful
27:48I made repeated requests your grace
27:50but I was prevented at every turn
27:52why did you not allow a physician to be summoned
27:56this gentleman is clearly ill
27:59I run in a Cherokee guff
28:01ain't nothing to pay a doctor with
28:03his man said an ear is poorer than he is
28:06so you left him to grow more ill
28:08perhaps to the point of endangering his life
28:11people die all the time don't they
28:14how many have died in this inn
28:16waiting for help that was never going to come
28:19sick and dying don't fight back
28:22it's easier to settle their bill
28:24by picking their pockets no doubt
28:26Adam
28:30can we go back to the castle
28:32in the looks of you
28:33you'd do better to go directly to a cemetery
28:36might be a good idea
28:38let's get Mr. Windover to the carriage
28:40of course
28:45how much do you imagine you are owed by Mr. Windover?
28:48considering everything I'd settle up for five pounds
28:50five pounds
28:52nothing you have provided or could provide is worth a tenth of that
28:56I reckon you can afford it
28:57and do you demand such exorbitant sums from people who can't afford it?
29:01someone will always walk away
29:03war-rack-guff
29:04I'm just making sense that it ain't never me
29:08you're five pounds
29:12here's hoping we can do business again in the future
29:16we will
29:33you've taken Evander
29:37please do not take my husband as well
29:57take him to his chambers
30:01is Mr. Jones here?
30:02yes, your grace
30:14told you I'd be careful
30:16I suppose I should have believed you
30:21yes
30:23you should have
30:25you look cold
30:27and I'm freezing
30:29you should change into something warm and dry
30:31Mr. Jones will see to Harry
30:35you are to be my voice of reason
30:37your hand is cold
30:44so I'm
30:47my apologies
30:49if you'll excuse me
30:50I've been told I ought to change out of this cold white cloth
30:55I'm glad you've returned, Adam
31:17does Mr. Jones feel that Mr. Windover will recover?
31:22he does
31:23now that Mr. Windover is here
31:26he had begun making a turn for the worse to that inn
31:29I
31:30I shudder to think of the outcome
31:31if his grace hadn't rescued him
31:33while his grace may have carried out the rescue
31:37your letter is the reason we knew it was necessary
31:40we are all indebted to you for that
31:43Mr. Windover is
31:45a good man
31:47yes
31:49he is
31:55Adam
31:58Mr. Jones believes
31:59Harry will recover
32:02I suspect
32:03Harry is too stubborn not to
32:09what is he in need of?
32:10the apothecary
32:11is providing powders in a tisane
32:14aside from that
32:15he says
32:16Mr. Windover needs rest
32:17then we will allow you to see to his comfort
32:24I
32:25hadn't had a chance to check on Harry myself
32:31bringing Harry here
32:34was the best thing you could have done
32:38allowing him to sleep
32:39will be the next best thing
32:45I suppose I should listen
32:47when offered such sage advice
32:50I agree
33:05you've been out in the cold all day
33:07you've been out in the cold all day Adam
33:09you should get some rest as well
33:11you might very well end up as ill as Harry
33:32I will have the kitchen send you up a tray
33:34I will have the best thing you could have done
33:36I will have the best thing you could have done
33:37I will have the best thing you could have done
33:39I will have the best thing you could have done
33:40I will have the best thing you could have done
33:49I will have the best thing you could have done
33:50I will have the best thing you could have done
33:52I will have the best thing you could have done
33:54I will have the best thing you could have done
33:55I will have the best thing you could have done
33:57I will have the best thing you could have done
33:58I will have the best thing you could have done
34:09Adam.
34:20Adam, you've married a coward.
34:34Adam.
34:38Adam.
34:42Adam.
34:43Adam.
34:45Adam.
34:46Adam.
34:47Adam.
35:00At least she doesn't snore.
35:13Stephanie!
35:18Stephanie!
35:34Adam!
35:45What?
35:59I'm behaving like a ridiculous black wit, panicking over a dream.
36:04Adam?
36:05What?
36:11Harry seems a little better this morning.
36:17I am glad he is improving.
36:21So am I.
36:25Are you planning on riding this morning?
36:28I am.
36:29I would rather you didn't.
36:30But I...
36:31I would rather you didn't.
36:36I won't if you really don't want me to.
36:38Good.
36:39I think it would be best if you do not.
36:43What the blazes is wrong with me.
36:47Yeah.
37:14Whenever she comes in, she'll be able to get her.
37:14You want to know who's coming in 2016 or you will live.
37:29I get that a lot.
37:33We've been worried about you.
37:38It's all been a ploy to get attention.
37:45Why were you so displeased when you were looking in the mirror?
37:49It was nothing.
37:53That wasn't nothing.
38:00Do you think I'm ridiculous?
38:05Ah, you large buckets.
38:09Adam's been talking again, hasn't he?
38:13He looked me over, studying me very closely.
38:17Then he said, ridiculous.
38:19He once described St. James's palace as ridiculous.
38:24It's his favourite word.
38:27He is so confusing.
38:32All part of his charm, Persephone.
38:41How did he come to have such extensive scars?
38:51Adam was born with a stub.
38:53Where his right ear was meant to be.
38:56A succession of surgeons came to the castle over the first few years of his life.
39:01Attempting to find it.
39:03The scars, then, weren't the result of an accident.
39:08We were attempting to fix him.
39:11But, in the end, he still has no ear.
39:16His hearing is still a little novel on outside.
39:20And he's been left scarred.
39:23In more ways than one.
39:27You need to rest.
39:28I'm fine.
39:29And I won't keep you from it.
39:32If there is anything at all that he needs, do not hesitate to ask.
39:35Thank you, Chris.
39:39Thank you, Chris.
