Transcript
00:02Harry was as impertinent as ever when I saw him an hour or so ago.
00:06I think that is an indication that he is recovering.
00:12I received a letter from my sister today.
00:15Which one?
00:17Artemis.
00:18Youngest?
00:20Yes.
00:24She dislikes a governess, not for any legitimate reason.
00:29She feels weighed down by the continued state of mourning around the house.
00:33And she has asked, again, to be able to come here to visit.
00:43I suggested spring or summer.
00:50Of course nothing has actually been planned.
00:55We will have to go to London in the spring.
00:58After enduring society in the season, we get to return here, where it's quiet.
01:07Yes.
01:10It is decidedly quiet.
01:30How are you feeling?
01:32Hmm.
01:34Much improved.
01:36Being away from the boar and dagger has contributed greatly to my welfare.
01:40And you'll be pleased to know it will not be a source of misery any longer.
01:44It is to be shuttered.
01:45Immediately.
01:50Shuttered?
01:50Hmm.
01:52A closer look at Smith's history and practice has made closing the place absolutely necessary.
01:56Any man who would withhold food, warmth, medical aid, and the ability to send for help when a person is
02:01in distress, and has done so, time and again, ought not be running an inn.
02:07Hmm.
02:10First you rush to my rescue.
02:14Then you vanquish the villain who tortured me.
02:18Watch yourself, Adam.
02:23People will begin to think you care.
02:25Shut up, Harry.
02:26Ha!
02:29Ha!
02:36Barton!
02:39What is that infernal noise?
02:43I believe that would be described as lively conversation, Harry's.
02:46And who is responsible for such lively conversation?
02:50Hmm.
02:51Mrs. Pointer.
02:53No doubt the vicar is here as well.
02:54No doubt.
02:56Are you feeling quite yourself today, Barton?
02:59I hear you.
02:59I feel better than I have in years, Your Grace.
03:02It sounds as though Faustin is infested with birds.
03:09A full tea!
03:11I believe Cook was exceptionally excited at the prospect of preparing a tea tree once more.
03:17It's been a while here, Grace.
03:20How is it, Barton, that the vicar and his wife came to be in my drawing room?
03:24I do not recall altering the requirement that all guests be informed that I am not at home.
03:30The vicar was quite specific about seeing her, Grace.
03:34When I presented the Duchess with Mr. Pointer's card, I thought she'd actually run down the stairs.
03:40She was so pleased to have call us.
03:43How long have the Pointer's been here?
03:45Only a few minutes, Your Grace.
03:47Well, a few minutes is more than most get.
03:55Of course.
03:56Would you like a cup of tea, Adam?
03:58No.
03:59It is a pleasure to see you again, Your Grace.
04:01I doubt that.
04:02What precisely is the reason for your visit here?
04:05Social call, of course.
04:07When in the fifteen years that you have served as vicar, has Faustin Castle ever received visitors?
04:11Not once, Your Grace.
04:13What has led you to believe that that has changed?
04:17Wishful thinking?
04:18There will be no callers at Faustin Castle.
04:21Not today.
04:22Not in the future.
04:24Faustin Castle is not receiving, Your Grace, or you are not receiving.
04:30It is the same.
04:32Forgive me.
04:32It is not.
04:34Thank you for your hospitality, Your Grace.
04:39Do you come again?
04:44I will see you on Sunday.
04:47Do not lose hope.
04:48Happiness can be found even in dark times.
04:51Persephone doesn't get to be happy.
04:53That is the ending of the myth according to my youngest sister.
04:56Ah, but it is the ending of the tale according to you that matters most.
05:00You might as well stay and finish your tea.
05:06Cook will be offended if the tray is sent back untouched.
05:10Do sit, dear.
05:11Do try the lemon cake.
05:16Pardon?
05:20Are you sure you wouldn't care for some tea?
05:26I didn't know I was supposed to turn them away.
05:30They might as well finish their tea.
05:33I thought no one wanted to meet me.
05:35I doubt anyone in the neighborhood even made the attempt.
05:39So I could visit the neighbors?
05:41No.
05:43No.
05:45They may attempt to return the favor.
05:48But I...
05:48I will not have Fauston Castle overrun with people.
05:54Of course not.
05:57Thank you for allowing the pointers to remain.
05:59I have been enjoying their visit.
06:05You, of course, will owe Mrs. Pointer a visit.
06:09I understand she entertains half the county on a regular basis.
06:13I could...
06:15meet the neighbors that way then.
06:17If you want to.
06:24If you want to.
06:50Who else was at the vicarage?
06:52Mrs. Milston and her daughter.
06:53Lady Hedisham.
06:55Miss Greenborough.
06:57What did you think of our residence, Minster?
06:59She was very quiet, so I was not able to form much of an opinion of her.
07:03Persephone.
07:07It's for me.
07:09You should read it.
07:13Your Grace, Lord, your Empress Lord of the Admiral.
07:15Do you relate to me your inquiries regarding two midshipmen aboard the HMS Triumphant?
07:22Evander Lancaster, as you have been informed, succumbed to entry, sustained to work on us.
07:26The most lost at that time has been buried in a cemetery untroupled or alongside his fallen shipmates.
07:33Go on, Persephone.
07:35There's no bad news.
07:39Midshipman Linus Lancaster.
07:43Sustained only minor wounds in that battle and remains aboard the Triumphant.
07:50He will as requested be granted shortly when we return that outboard.
07:58The other missive is from Linus.
08:02Linus.
08:02Linus has written to me.
08:07I don't know how you managed this, Adam.
08:10You needed answers.
08:12I simply ensured you received them.
08:15This is by far the kindest thing any person has ever done for me, Adam.
08:18Thank you so, so much.
08:37You did that very well.
08:49I just kissed Persephone.
08:52Hmm.
08:53I noticed.
08:56And, um...
09:00I think Persephone noticed as well.
09:03Which is a good thing, really.
09:05If she hadn't even realized we were kissing her, one would begin to wonder about your technique.
09:10Oh, sh-
09:10I know.
09:12Shut up, Harry.
09:25They're getting louder.
09:34Thank you for my letter, Adam.
09:39Linus sounds happy.
09:41He didn't mention Evander, which worries me a little.
09:45It was always his way to avoid topics that were upsetting.
09:51But he did promise to keep writing.
09:59You don't like it when I thank you for the things that you do.
10:06But I really am grateful.
10:11If only you could do something about the wolves.
10:23you could ever ask me.
10:50Was that after?
11:04what happened you were thrown from a horse are you hurt can you sit up i don't know
11:15let me help you
11:24does anything hurt you asked me that already a person can be killed being thrown from a horse
11:30until i'm certain you are not hurt i'm going to keep asking you questions
11:38what happened i can't explain it you chris it's almost like something spoke the horse
11:44we're fortunate she didn't come to serious harm yes you chris
11:52your abigail can have a hot bath prepared that should help with any stiffness

12:00you're too stiff to come down for dinner you'll disagree
12:05careful there you are
12:09that is very kind of you adam you're thrown from a horse persephone any decent gentleman
12:16would be concerned
12:22i can have the kitchen send up a tray if you would rather not come down for dinner

13:10yes but that is no guarantee
13:25i'm sorry
13:27i'm sorry
13:29i
13:31adam
13:32adam
13:54ridiculous
13:55it is too busted quiet in here
14:17Oh, the blazes is taken to.
14:21So you are awake.
14:22Adam.
14:23Are you stiff from your fall?
14:25Does it hurt to walk?
14:29They are loud tonight.
14:34How long do you plan to sit at that window and worry about wolves?
14:37Until they stop.
14:41You should have come in when they first started.
14:45Come in?
14:46And curled up on the bed, wrapped up in that blanket.
14:49You knew?
14:51I thought you were asleep.
14:55Asleep?
14:56Oh, I can't sleep.
14:58You've ruined the room for me.
14:59What do you mean I've ruined it?
15:01My bedchamber used to be quiet.
15:03And then you started coming in and making all those noises while you're sleeping.
15:07I make noises?
15:08And you move constantly.
15:10Loud noises?
15:11What?
15:12No.
15:13No, like a puppy.
15:17Little noises.
15:19And that doesn't bother you?
15:21I've grown used to it.
15:23I don't want to bother you.
15:27You won't?
15:31The wolves don't worry me as much in your bedchamber.
15:37Like Wiser and his?
15:40No.
15:42The way I forget it.
15:43If the pack ever actually makes it into the castle, they'll eat you first.
15:57Good night, Adam.
16:00Good night, Persephone.
16:11Adam?
16:13Yes?
16:16Why did you decide to get married?
16:23At the time, it seemed like a good idea.
16:30Does it now?
16:39Mrs. Adcock said you would.
16:42Said I would what?
16:44Regret marrying me.
16:56Mrs. Adcock said that most gentlemen who pay for a wife regret the purchase in the end.
17:04It was blatantly obvious she was referring to our marriage settlement.
17:09Mrs. Adcock had mentioned her sizable dowry at least a dozen times,
17:14so I happened to ask Lady Hedisham loudly enough for Mrs. Adcock to hear whether or not it seemed odd
17:23that some ladies found it necessary to offer money to prospective bridegroom in order to bring him up to scratch.
17:31No gentleman would accept a horse so ill-recommended that he had to be bribed to accept it.
17:39I thought Mrs. Adcock's tea would come flying out her ears.
17:43She looked so livid.
17:46Will you compare her to a horse?
17:49I doubt even I could produce such a cunning retort on Persephone.
17:53I have not pulled caps with anyone in years.
17:56I'm not ashamed to admit that I enjoyed it.
18:00I felt like a regular warrior.
18:04Perhaps before I next call at the vicarage, I should try on one of the suits of armor for size.
18:08I could check the armory for a jousting lance and simply unseat my adversary as she rides up to the
18:13vicarage.
18:14I would be the terror of the neighborhood.
18:19Well, if it comes to full combat, let me know.
18:22I'm rather handy with a crossbow.
18:24Maybe Harry could be our page if we could go conquer Adcock Manor.
18:27Well, Harry would make an abysmal page.
18:31You might be trusted with a battle axe, though.
18:36We would make a wonderfully fearsome team.
18:41You see, Adam, marriage to me might not be such a terrible thing for you after all.
18:45I'm not sure.
19:24Are you wishing a ride today, Your Grace?
19:27His alibi is still unhappy.
19:29You said he doesn't like the cold?
19:31No, it's not just the cold.
19:33He was treated badly before.
19:35Doesn't trust people.
19:38Because they treated him bad before, they'll treat him bad again.
19:41But no one here would ever hurt him.
19:43No, it doesn't matter.
19:45They'll not give you a chance to fight you till holy perdition, that one.
19:51Seems like a lost cause.
19:54Why keep trying?
19:55There's no lost causes, Your Grace.
19:58Every creature needs someone who can save them.
20:01If they'll only try.
20:03There's many hope when you're the sort who tries.
20:08This...
20:09Poor creature...
20:10Seems so angry.
20:13They're more afraid than furious.
20:16Been afraid for years.
20:19Why?
20:22What happened?
20:24Got torn apart and left behind.
20:28Decided to bite before anyone bit first.
20:31If nobody gets close...
20:35Nobody can hurt him.
20:51Welcome back.
20:52Good morning to you, Persephone.
20:54Good morning.
20:56Good morning.
20:57Good morning, Adam.
20:58Good morning.
20:59Are you wanting to ride?
21:00I was thinking about it.
21:01If you do, I fear we'll be forced to postpone our siege.
21:06You two are planning a siege.
21:12Why do I get the feeling my presence is not particularly appreciated just now?
21:16I would think, Harry, that you would feel that way often.
21:19If you go now, you'll have plenty of time to pack.
21:22But you'll miss me.
21:23I never miss anyone.
21:28Hmm.
21:49Your name is on the lips of every member of the tomb.
21:52Well, some are saying that Persephone has left you already.
21:56Thank you, Mother.
22:00Madam?
22:03May I talk with you for a moment?
22:09Mrs. Smithson skipped this room when she gave me my tour.
22:14I haven't ever been in here.
22:17No one ever comes into this room.
22:20I am overstepping myself.
22:21No.
22:22No.
22:36Who is this you're standing beside, Adam?
22:39My father.
22:41I thought he must be.
22:43You look very much like him.
22:46Do I?
22:47You have the same eyes.
22:50And there is something similar about your mouth and the shape of your face.
22:54And, of course, you both have dark hair.
22:57I suppose there is a resemblance.
23:02Your nose is your mother's.
23:03I noticed that when I first saw the two of you together.
23:11Are you like him in other ways?
23:13My father.
23:19I hope so.
23:27You wanted to speak to me about something.
23:32The Triumphant will make port the last week of November.
23:36Linus will be granted three weeks, surely.
23:38Isn't that wonderful?
23:39Yes.
23:40The Triumphant will be docking at Newcastle.
23:42I could be there and see him before he departs for Shropshire.
23:46Be there?
23:48In Newcastle?
23:49I wouldn't be gone more than a day or two.
23:51Of course, I would want to see him off as well, which would mean going back when the Triumphant sets
23:55out again.
23:55You cannot go.
24:21You cannot go.
24:31What if he came here?
24:33But you don't allow visitors.
24:34Well, it makes more sense than you journeying to Newcastle twice.
24:38Linus could come to Fauston before going to see your family.
24:41Do you mean it?
24:43I don't say anything.
24:44I don't mean.
24:46It wouldn't be too much of an imposition.
24:50I'd very much like to meet the boy myself.
24:53Really?
24:54Linus might make a great addition to our siege.
24:58Harry would probably faint dead away at the first battle cry.
25:06Thank you, Adam.
25:21Why do you never leave?
25:24Good afternoon to you, too.
25:28Answer the question.
25:30Is this a pointed interrogation?
25:33Or of an intellectual discussion?
25:34Intellectual discussion.
25:39Why do I never leave?
25:43Because I like Fauston.
25:44Why?
25:44Free food.
25:45I'm in earnest.
25:46I need you to be as well.
25:47The food is nothing to disregard.
25:48Cook is a miracle worker.
25:54Aside from that,
25:57Fauston is familiar.
25:58It's comfortable.
26:00So you feel the same way about the house in London.
26:03You spend a lot of time there as well.
26:04And you've come with me to Kent a few times.
26:07This is a pointed interrogation, isn't it?
26:11Look, if you were trying to tell me to make myself scarce,
26:13now that you're married, I completely understand.
26:14No, it's not that at all.
26:19Then what is it?
26:23I want to know why you've stayed around all these years.
26:29We're friends, Adam.
26:32Friends don't just jump ship.
26:34I think your answer about the food is more honest.
26:37Did it ever occur to you that I sincerely consider you a friend?
26:45My best friend, in fact.
26:49Because of Harrow?
26:52You may have started that way.
26:54You saved my skin.
26:57So I worshipped you for a while.
26:59A bit like an idol who could ward off evil spirits, I suppose.
27:05But then, then you landed me a face of something stupid I did, or said.
27:13I remember that quite well, but not what we were scuffling out.
27:16And we were sent down.
27:18My parents were away, so we came here.
27:23In those two weeks of our expulsion, I met.
27:28Adam Boyce.
27:29The Duke of Kilda, still scared the guts out of me.
27:35But Adam Boyce.
27:37It's just a boy.
27:38Like me.
27:42Why the sudden interest in our colorful childhood?
28:11It looks frigid out there, doesn't it?
28:15It does.
28:19Persephone looks cold, Adam.
28:22You should go and keep her warm.
28:25Keep her warm.
28:27The fact of my suggestion confuses you.
28:30Does not bode well.
28:33My friend.
28:36It didn't...
28:40It didn't confuse me.
28:57She is lonely in this empty castle.
29:03Just as Mother was.
29:11Persephone.
29:15I heard them, Adam.
29:16The walls, they're inside Falston.
29:18They are still outside the castle.
29:19They're so loud.
29:20They sound so much closer.
29:21They are not inside the castle walls, Persephone.
29:25Are you certain?
29:27Absolutely.
29:30I have tea sent up to my book room.
29:32Yes, your grace.
29:43I know I shouldn't be so afraid of them,
29:46but the howling sends chills through me.
29:51I will have my steward check on the pack
29:53so you can breathe more easily.
29:55I had always been told
29:56that there were no more wolves in England.
30:00Our pack is descended from the last of the wolves,
30:02that roamed the area
30:04and the wild dogs that called the forest home.
30:07Are they less vicious than true wolves, then?
30:13They are more wolf than anything else,
30:16but they always give the castle a wide berth.
30:30I think...
30:34I think we should hold a ball.
30:36A ball?
30:37Unless you don't want to.
30:38I assumed you wouldn't want to.
30:40It would mean a lot of people in the castle.
30:46Every bride should have a ball.
30:51We are still in mourning.
30:55I think a wedding ball
30:57would be permissible.
31:01Do you mean...
31:07You don't say things you don't mean.
31:11No.
31:15No, I don't.
31:19Yes, Adam.
31:21We should host a ball at Fauston.
31:27Adam suggested it.
31:29Adam!
31:31Is it the Adam I know?
31:33I am as surprised as you are.
31:36He's been doing a lot of uncharacteristic things lately.
31:39Barton says Cook is in tears.
31:41What did you do to her?
31:43I didn't do anything to her.
31:44She was informed about the upcoming ball.
31:46She's that upset about it.
31:47She's that pleased about it.
31:48She's been reduced to weeping at the kitchen work table.
31:51How has the rest of the staff reacted?
31:54Mrs. Smithson is rushing about
31:55as though the ball is this evening
31:56instead of three weeks from now.
31:58And Barton has simply begun grinning
32:00when he thinks I'm not looking.
32:01Three weeks from now?
32:02But Adam Linus is coming in three weeks' time.
32:05Please tell me you haven't changed your mind
32:07about his visit.
32:08Of course not, Persephone.
32:10He can be here for the ball.
32:14Why the sudden urge to entertain, Adam?
32:17First, you invite Persephone's brother.
32:20And the ball will bring every family of consequence
32:22in the northern half of England
32:23to Falston at the same time.
32:26That is precisely the sort of thing
32:28that makes you miserable.
32:29I don't want you to be miserable.
32:31I will not be miserable.
32:32You will simply make the rest of us miserable.
32:35Perhaps you should put an end to the entire thing
32:36and save us the suffering.
32:38Shut up, Harry.
32:42Harry is not nearly persuasive enough
32:44to convince me to cancel Linus' visit.
32:47There is no need to worry over that.
32:48But there is.
32:50You tell me to trust you,
32:52but I don't know that I can.
32:54There is so much I don't know about you, Adam,
32:56so much I don't understand,
32:58and that frightens me.
33:02I frighten you?
33:03That isn't what I said.
33:05It really isn't.
33:05Shut up, Harry!
33:09I am happy to see I am a unifying force.
33:11At the moment, Harry Windover,
33:13you are a frustrating force.
33:14Harry, now would be a perfect opportunity
33:16for a timely exit.
33:17Then taken.
33:24I have faults, Persephone,
33:27like any other man.
33:29But I am not a liar.
33:33I was raised by a man
33:34who valued honesty
33:36and loyalty
33:38and keeping one's word.
33:41Now, I have promised you
33:42that your brother will visit you here
33:43and that Fauston Castle will host a ball
33:46and no one,
33:47not Harry,
33:47not anyone else,
33:49will browbeat me
33:50into going back on that promise to you.
33:53on any promise to you.
33:57I want to believe that.
33:59And your happiness does matter.
34:02You should believe that, too.
34:06I'm beginning to.
34:28Good afternoon.
34:30You look a bit unwell,
34:32poor boy.
34:34I'm fine.
34:35I was just telling Persephone
34:38of all the wonderful balls
34:39we used to have here at the castle.
34:41Even the London papers
34:43were full of every detail
34:44of the evening.
34:45Who attended,
34:47the decorations,
34:49the menu.
34:51Fauston balls were
34:53positively legendary.
34:55I'm certain our ball
34:56will be far less elaborate.
34:57Well, that's why I've rushed back.
34:59It could be extraordinary.
35:02A few changes to the menu,
35:03perhaps a more dramatic
35:05decorating scheme.
35:07It is enough
35:07that there will be people here.
35:09That should be plenty
35:10to fill the London papers
35:11with pages
35:12of shocked commentary.
35:15The castle's always been
35:17more pleasant
35:18when it's been festive.
35:20Mrs. Smithson and I
35:21have discussed the menu
35:22and the preparations.
35:23I am quite satisfied
35:24with what we've chosen.
35:26Hmm.
35:27Satisfied
35:27and pleased
35:28are not the same thing.
35:31You'll be desperate
35:32to leave before long
35:33if something's not done
35:34to liven the place.
35:35We are holding a ball, Mother.
35:37There has always been
35:38enough festiveness
35:38for you to return to Fauston.
35:42It sounds to me
35:43like it's
35:43hardly a ball.
35:47I...
35:49I suppose
35:49the arrangements
35:50could be made
35:51a bit more
35:53extensive.
35:54Oh, I sound just like Fauston.
35:56I assure you both
35:57I am satisfied
35:59and pleased
36:00with our current arrangements.
36:01They suit my preferences.
36:03You really must
36:04let me help
36:05with future entertainments.
36:07We could hold
36:08ever so many,
36:09both here and in London.
36:10You'll have far too much
36:12fun to be unhappy.
36:16If you'll please
36:17excuse me.
36:26All of the balls
36:27you held for Mother
36:28weren't enough
36:28to keep her here
36:29so why the blasted blazes
36:30am I trying
36:31the same approach?
36:33Dukes don't need people,
36:34you said.
36:35We're better off
36:36without her.
36:39Persephone will leave too.
36:39In the end,
36:40everyone does.
36:47You will hurt your hand
36:48if you keep doing that.
36:52Go at your dinner,
36:53Persephone.
36:55I intend to.
36:59On the desk
37:00we'll be fine.
37:04I'm not hungry.
37:06Perhaps not,
37:07but I am.
37:16Mother...
37:17Is taking her meal
37:17with Harry.
37:19I am eating here.
37:21No one eats
37:22in this room.
37:23You would rather
37:24I starve?
37:25If you are truly
37:26on the verge
37:26of expiring,
37:27then by all means
37:30take some nourishment.
37:42Blast it.
37:44Does smell good,
37:44doesn't it?
37:45What a shame
37:45you aren't hungry.
37:46Is that a hint,
37:48Persephone?
37:49A hint?
37:51You are trying
37:52to convince me
37:52to join you.
37:54This is for me.
37:55If you want something,
37:56you will have to send
37:56to the kitchen
37:56for it yourself.
38:01You plan to eat
38:02an entire chicken?
38:03It is not
38:04an entire chicken.
38:05I'm not such
38:06a very large one
38:06at that.
38:07In fact,
38:07it is a very good thing.
38:09There is plenty
38:10to go with it,
38:11otherwise I would be
38:11in very real danger
38:12of wasting away.
38:23You didn't expect
38:24me to eat
38:25an entire chicken,
38:26did you?
38:38Thank you
38:39for the dinner
38:40of Persephone.
38:42Thank you
38:43for allowing
38:43the ball,
38:45for inviting
38:46Linus to visit.
38:49It is nice
38:49having something
38:50to look forward to.
39:06Would you like
39:07having more balls
39:08and entertainments?
39:12I would
39:12now and then,
39:15but I miss
39:16my family
39:17more than
39:17I miss
39:17company.
39:20they are
39:21so very far
39:21away,
39:22it sometimes
39:23feels as though
39:24I'll never
39:24see them again.
39:28They may
39:29very well go
39:29to London
39:30for the season.
39:31You could
39:32see them there.
39:33You could
39:33see a lot
39:34of people there.
39:36That should
39:37tide you over
39:37for a while.
39:40I would
39:41have to get
39:41my fill then,
39:41I suppose.
