TVTranscript
00:20In the weeks that followed the disastrous Meriton Assembly,
00:24I buried myself in my books, hoping to stave off the pangs of shame and humiliation.
00:31It was all part of my plan for a new Mary.
00:36I needed a clear mind, unclouded by strong emotion.
00:40I was working on gravitas.
00:45From now on, I would be a steady, informed, and rational woman.
00:51Books would be my guide.
00:52I would think more and feel less.
01:01What could possibly go wrong?
01:13Well...
01:24I hope you have ordered a good dinner for this evening.
01:28We shall have a guest.
01:29I knew it would be so.
01:32It's not Mr Bingley.
01:36It's my cousin.
01:37Mr Collins?
01:38The very same.
01:39The man next in the end tale.
01:41Who?
01:41The man who, once I am dead, will turn you out of the house as soon as he pleases.
01:46He proposes himself as a guest here at Longbourn?
01:49In point of composition, his letter does not seem entirely defective.
01:53Entirely defective?
01:55Mary, are you quite all right?
01:57I regret deeply the breach which has existed between us for so long.
02:01As a clergyman, I feel it my duty to promote the blessings of peace in all families within my influence.
02:09Blessings of peace in this house?
02:12He must be an oddity.
02:14I cannot make him out. Can he be a sensible man, sir?
02:18He is a very sensible man, thank you, Elizabeth.
02:21Very sensible indeed.
02:24Oh, can you not all see he is looking for a wife?
02:28Do you really think so?
02:30Lizzie?
02:31You must prepare yourself.
02:32But Mama!
02:33We shall find out just what kind of man he is this afternoon.
02:36I have great hopes of his being extremely foolish.
02:41He sounds insufferably boring.
02:43A clergyman.
02:44Ugh.
02:45Is it right to condemn him before we've even met him?
02:48Oh, please, Mary.
02:50I was agreeing with you.
02:51It's the way you say things.
02:59I am looking forward to meeting Mr. Collins this afternoon.
03:09What do you keep under your hat?
03:19We have.
03:20We do not sparkle as they do, you and I.
03:26Oh, I hope my honesty did not offend her.
03:28My goodness, no.
03:30No.
03:31Your sisters seem most agitated this morning.
03:34My father's cousin, Mr. Collins, is to visit Longbourn and they've all decided he's a terrible ball.
03:39Now?
03:40Mother believes he comes looking for a wife.
03:43A wife?
03:43Apparently.
03:45What is your cousin's profession?
03:46A clergyman.
03:48Oh.
03:49A modest income then, I imagine.
03:53Do you know what my advice would be to you?
03:56If my father's cousin was coming to stay and I knew he was looking for a wife, I would do
04:01everything within the bounds of propriety to attract him.
04:06Well, I have decided none of this is for me.
04:09I will live alone with knowledge and...
04:11Look, Mary cannot seriously believe the life of an old maid is to be preferred.
04:18I do not think my ma has me in mind.
04:20Jane and Lizzie won't settle solo.
04:22Anyway, Jane is nearly taken.
04:24So that leaves you.
04:28You speak nothing of love.
04:32What does love to do with anything?
04:34Of course.
04:34Of course, you're right.
04:35Of course.
04:36For an educated woman, raised to be genteel as we have been, the future holds no other prospect than marriage.
04:44Marriage or misery, Mary?
04:47Marriage or misery?
04:51I should know.
05:20Mr. Collins!
05:22I'm here!
05:22Meet at last.
05:31Ah, this...
05:36This is Jane, our eldest.
05:39Well, I had an idea.
05:44She is soon to be engaged, but the others are not.
05:50This is Elizabeth.
05:56A pleasure.
05:57Ah.
06:01And, uh, Mary.
06:02How do you do?
06:03This is Kitty.
06:04And our youngest, Lydia.
06:06Ah.
06:07Well, now, I don't know that I will be able to tell the difference between you two.
06:12Yeah.
06:14Hmm.
06:16Hmm.
06:18The good looks of my fair cousins far exceed even the most enthusiastic of reports.
06:23Of course.
06:27Oh, um...
06:28No, uh, I'm terribly sorry.
06:31I certainly didn't mean to cause any offence.
06:34Oh, you caused no offence, Mr. Collins?
06:37Of course you didn't.
06:40Allow me to show you the house.
06:42Hmm.
06:42Oh, splendid.
06:45Splendid.
06:45Uh, much smaller than one imagined, but with a few minor modifications will suffice my meek needs.
06:53In case you think so.
07:01I am not worthy of the crumbs which fall from thy table.
07:08Amen.
07:09And yet that gives unto me the bread of life.
07:13Evermore, give me that bread that I may eat thereof, and not die eternally.
07:24Yes, exactly.
07:25Amen.
07:27Mr. Bennet, what a magnificent dining table.
07:30Even with the, uh, heavy curtains and the lack of natural light in here, one can still see its quantity.
07:36How generous of you.
07:37Mm.
07:41Shall we?
07:42Mm.
07:50Mr. Collins?
07:57Mr. Bennet, I expect your daughters will be quickly and advantageously disposed of in marriage.
08:03Disposed?
08:04It is very good of you to say so.
08:05Mm.
08:06Oh.
08:06Oh, I am happy on every occasion to offer those delicate little compliments that are agreeable to ladies.
08:12Thank you, Mr. Collins.
08:14Mm.
08:15And may I commend your reading of grace?
08:18It has very much stayed with me.
08:20And, uh...
08:21It is most unfortunate that our girls have no proper portion to bring to their husbands.
08:25Please excuse me.
08:28You allude perhaps to the entail of this estate?
08:32It is a most vexing situation.
08:34If only there was some satisfactory way to amend it.
08:40Mm.
08:41Mm.
08:41Mm.
08:42Mm.
08:42I could say much on the subject.
08:44But I am cautious of appearing forward and, um, precipitate.
08:49Mm.
08:51I can assure the young ladies that I come prepared to admire them.
08:57Mm.
08:58Mm.
09:00Have you read Dr. Fordyce, sir?
09:05Mm.
09:05I certainly have.
09:06Cousin Elizabeth?
09:08What make you of the sermons?
09:11I'm sure I haven't had time to read them, sir.
09:13Mm.
09:13So busy have I been merely being a woman, I haven't had a moment to read up on how I
09:18should go about it.
09:21I think I'm the only one who's truly interested in Fordyce's sermons.
09:27More wine, Mr. Collins.
09:29Mm.
09:34I will that women adorn themselves with sobriety.
09:39Let your speech be always, be always with grace, seasoned with salt.
09:54This has been wonderful.
09:56Mm.
09:57But now you must let us entertain you, Mr. Collins.
10:01Lizzie, won't you play for us?
10:06Ah.
10:26Mm.
10:28Mm.
10:29Mm.
10:30Mm.
10:37Mm.
10:55Bravo, Lizzie.
10:56Yeah.
10:57Very good, Lizzie.
10:58If you were to practise properly, you really might master it.
11:01It seems a great shame to bring all the pleasure out of music.
11:03A few false notes seems a small price to pay in exchange.
11:07A great shame to waste as a gift, that is all.
11:09Hmm. Quite right.
11:12Why don't you show us how it is done, Mary?
11:23Oh, Lord.
11:46Why don't you give us a gift?
11:47Oh, Lord.
11:48Oh, Lord.
11:49Oh, Lord.
11:55Well, I'll tell you.
11:55Oh, Lord.
12:00Oh, Lord.
12:01Oh, Lord.
12:04Oh, Lord.
12:05Oh, Lord.
12:14My congratulations, cousin. You play with such exactness.
12:21I imagine you practice a great deal.
12:23I practice often, which is true.
12:26Yes, it is.
12:28It's only through hard work that anything of any value is to be achieved.
12:31Yes. Yes, I...
12:34Mr. Collins, perhaps Elizabeth could take you on a walk around the gardens.
12:49Mary.
12:50Mother.
12:53I do not want any confusion regarding Mr. Collins and future prospects.
13:00I'm not sure I understand.
13:02It is Lizzie in whom Mr. Collins has expressed an interest. Are we clear?
13:07Don't you worry, Mama, that Lizzie won't accept Mr. Collins.
13:12I have no particular feelings for him.
13:15But he and I have similar interests, and I am at least prepared to seek out the good in him.
13:21Mary, I cannot pass the man around the family like a sherry trifle.
13:28Your name has not come up.
13:39Cousins!
13:40Come on.
13:41Ready?
13:42Come on, hit it.
13:43I bring news.
13:44There used to be...
13:47There used to be a ball next week at Netherfield.
13:50Oh, I knew Mr. Bingley would find the perfect excuse to see Jane again.
13:55And my brother and his wife shall be visiting.
13:57They might even be here when the engagement is announced.
14:00We are some way off that.
14:03Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner shall be joining us.
14:06They're coming down from London.
14:07Up.
14:11They're coming up from London.
14:13That is what I said.
14:15Splendid.
14:16Splendid!
14:17A real family affair.
14:19I will need new ribbons.
14:21Perhaps, Miss Bennet, you would take the first dance with me?
14:27Oh, how wonderful.
14:29Maybe I should play a little something on the piano?
14:33Yes, you should indeed.
14:36What about you, Miss Elizabeth?
14:38Do you sing?
14:41There is nothing I admire more than a woman with a wide vocal range.
15:04Very good, Miss Mary.
15:05Your playing is coming along nicely.
15:08Thank you, Hill.
15:10Mr. Collins thinks I'm a very good player.
15:14I'm planning to play at the Assembly.
15:16At Netherfield?
15:17Yes.
15:18I was even thinking I might sing.
15:22Sing?
15:24Miss Mary?
15:25It will be a surprise to them all.
15:29Short and sweet.
15:30That would be my advice.
15:35And, er...
15:36Maybe don't sing.
15:44Hey, Hill?
15:45I want to play soon.
15:48Hey...
15:49...
15:49Holla!
15:51You're a ghost!
15:53Mmm!
15:54Mmm!
15:56Mmm!
15:56Mmm!
15:56Mmm!
15:56Mmm!
15:56Mmm!
15:56Mmm!
15:56Mmm!
15:57Mmmmm!
16:08Mmmmm!
16:12The earlier we arrive, the earlier we can leave.
16:17Oh!
16:22Oh!
16:23Oh!
16:43Lady Lucas, Charlotte, please meet my brother and his dear wife, Mr. and Mrs. Gardner.
16:51They're down from London.
16:53Up.
16:53What?
16:54Up from London.
16:55And this is my very distant cousin, Mr. Collins.
17:03Shall we do?
17:08Something of a challenge to find husbands for five daughters.
17:13This is a beautiful dining room.
17:15But if Jane were to get a proposal...
17:18Am I?
17:19Please.
17:23As I say, if Jane...
17:25Lizzie seems very keen to distance herself from your cousin.
17:28She's not at all happy about his interest.
17:33What is he like?
17:35Tolerable forearms, I noticed.
17:38Have you made your interest in him clear?
17:40I am trying, but...
17:44Your mother seems terribly keen for Lizzie to be matched with a man of a more distinct income.
17:49I cannot think why.
17:51He is the cousin.
17:53The one from the entail.
17:55It's Mr. Collins who stands to inherit Longbourn.
17:57The house, the estate, the income, all of it.
18:00So, my father cannot stand the man, while my mother wants Lizzie to marry him.
18:09Oh.
18:11Perhaps I will not play tonight.
18:14Oh, Mary, you must.
18:17I had prepared a little something, but...
18:22Now the time is here, I'm not sure I have the stomach for it.
18:24Nonsense.
18:25Mary.
18:26Mr. Collins is sure to be impressed.
18:28I think it is time you get yourself noticed.
18:33Aw.
18:49I beg you, do not make it long.
19:06Be gone, don't care, I pray thee be gone from me.
19:19Be gone, don't care, you and I shall never agree.
19:33Be gone, don't care, you and I shall never agree.
19:40Be gone, don't care, I will really be gone from me.
19:45Be gone, don't care, I will really be gone, don't care, you and I shall never agree.
20:03Be gone, don't care, you and I shall never agree.
20:09Be gone, don't care, you and I shall never agree.
20:24Be gone, don't care.
20:31I have another piece, Father, one that's more lively.
20:36Mary, you have delighted us on enough.
20:48Oh, Miss Bennet, that was truly unforgettable.
20:59It was a beautiful rendition of a difficult song.
21:04Everybody saw it.
21:07It's a kind song.
21:09Take a breath, take a breath.
21:11Nobody noticed but you.
21:31Mary, it was you that told Father to stop me playing, wasn't it?
21:35I didn't want you to over-exalt yourself.
21:37You insult me.
21:39Mary, we both know that is not true.
21:46Mary, I have had a terrible evening and yet you always appear to handle everything with
21:50such ease.
21:51What do you mean?
21:52You always care what you want without needing to try, whereas I try so hard and it's always
22:05for nothing.
22:06Mary, don't say that.
22:08There is much you have achieved.
22:17I'm sorry.
22:20I'm truly sorry.
22:38Mary!
22:40Mary!
22:41You must get dressed and come downstairs.
22:42There has been such an upset, you won't believe it.
22:44You can't imagine what's happened.
22:48Well, Mr. Collins has made Lizzie an offer and she has refused him.
22:54Can you imagine?
22:55Mama is furious and says Lizzie will have him.
22:58But Papa told Lizzie that her choice was a sad one because Mother will never see her again
23:02if she doesn't marry Collins and Papa will never see her again if she does.
23:07And now everyone is so utterly cross.
23:08Mr. Collins has stormed off, Lizzie won't say anything at all, Mama is beside herself and
23:12Papa has shut himself in the library.
23:14You must come.
23:15So what happens now?
23:16What of Mr. Collins?
23:19Papa thinks he would choose someone else.
23:21I don't know.
23:22Well, it's more likely to be me than you.
23:27No, I am resigned.
23:28Mr. Bennett, I shall take my lead.
23:30As you wish.
23:31Oh, Mr. Collins!
23:33I am resigned, madam.
23:34Mr. Collins, this is just a misunderstanding.
23:41Mr. Collins has withdrawn his pretensions to Lizzie's favour.
23:47I am very glad to hear it.
23:48I don't think I could have borne much more of his good opinion.
23:52He says he has resigned and will not renew his pursuit.
23:55Oh!
23:57Oh!
24:14Thank you, Hill.
24:23I have been thinking, Mary, since Lizzie was so selfish as to refuse Mr. Collins.
24:31I have turned my mind towards you.
24:38I think you understand me.
24:40Mama, less than a week ago you were adamant that I...
24:42Mary, please.
24:44He will not ask me now.
24:47I need to be sure that you will accept him when he offers.
24:51He will not choose me, Mama.
24:53Oh, Mary, he will.
24:56Who else will marry him?
25:02What are you reading?
25:06A theory of the earth. It's about rocks.
25:09Just types of...
25:11rocks.
25:15No, I...
25:18Ah!
25:26Hey.
25:27Yes, yes.
25:27Can I ask that a show?
25:29Yes, splendid new, sir.
25:30Yes, splendid.
25:32One had, obviously, hoped for a slightly more capacious dining room, however...
25:36Well done.
25:37I think it's quite sweet we found each other.
25:39Mr. Benich?
25:41Mr. Collins has made Miss Charlotte Lucas an offer of marriage.
25:47And she has accepted.
25:50We wish you joy.
25:52Yes.
25:52So much joy.
25:53I wish you joy.
25:54Thank you all.
25:56You do know he is a clergyman, sir?
25:58Yes, I am.
25:59You have to be really good man.
26:03They are...
26:05Mr. Benich?
26:06Yes.
26:06Although they are...
26:07Sarves.
26:08James.
26:10I don't know.
26:11I don't know.
26:12I don't know.
26:13Oh, my goodness.
26:15Oh, my goodness.
26:15What do you know?
26:16I do things that's called his family.
26:20Ha-ha.
26:21Yes.
26:22I just spoke to you.
26:29I've had any doubts as to whether I'd done the right thing.
26:32They vanished when I told my family of his offer.
26:35I am too old to be generous, I'm afraid.
26:40Charlotte!
26:43Come marvel at this oak.
26:50Good night, Jane. Good night, Lizzie.
26:52Good night, Lydia. Good night, Mama.
26:54Good night, Kitty.
26:55I told you no one would marry you if you wore spectacles.
27:16It wouldn't be for much longer, wait, that we Bennet sisters lived together.
27:26As each of my sisters left home,
27:30my future felt increasingly uncertain.
27:38I often thought back to the events in that period of my life
27:41and wondered if I could have done anything differently.
27:49But I was trapped.
27:53Unable to escape the loveless world of my parents.
28:05My options were limited.
28:12And I found my books offered me no instruction
28:15and little comfort.
28:19I searched desperately for answers.
28:23I clung on to hope.
28:34But in a moment, my life was upturned.
28:40Mr Bennet?
28:41Fetch the doctor!
28:43Yes, ma'am.
28:45They're bringing the carriage round. Go!
28:47Yes, ma'am. Right away.
28:54Father had found a way out,
28:56leaving Mother and I with nothing
29:00except each other.
29:03Kiva from the vet now.
29:13Honestly, you can change your life.
29:14Well, let me know you.
29:22Bye.
29:22Hello.
29:24Asta.
29:26See you soon.
29:27See you soon.
29:29Bye.
29:29You
