00:25John, please have Atlas saddled, I wish to ride to the vicarage.
00:29First ride outside the castle gates.
00:32I'm ready.
00:33Very good, you guys.
01:14Oh, where is this going to go?
01:24Oh, have you found her?
01:26Oh, Grace, we're riding to the vicarage, and Atlas bolted without warning.
01:32She's not that good a rider yet, and I'm afraid she might have become unseated.
01:36And what with that pack sound so close and angry?
01:38Missephanie!
01:39She's not answering.
01:43Missephanie!
02:04We need to find the pack!
02:06I'll stick with that myself, you Grace!
02:19Oh, steady, steady, steady, steady.
02:24I heard that too, you Grace.
02:26We're getting closer.
02:31Here we go.
02:31Uh-oh, zij.
02:38Okay.
02:39And now.
02:39I don't know.
03:14I don't know.
03:44I don't know.
03:45I don't know.
03:46Stay next to me.
03:46Stay next to me.
03:53John, interrupt me.
03:56Take Atlas back if you can.
03:58We'll be quick about it.
03:58The pack wants to spook for long.
04:02Seven, box around me.
04:04Hold fast.
04:04When we reach the road, we are going to run.
04:33I'm so dizzy.
04:34Can you walk?
04:35I think so.
04:43She was thrown from a horse out of the forest.
04:45There's a possibility she's broken her ankle.
04:47We should have a surgeon sent for.
04:48No.
04:48The wolves are prowling just outside the gate.
04:50It isn't safe for anyone to go in a row.
04:52They've never done that before.
04:53Persephale?
04:55Yes.
04:55Where is Martha?
04:56Drawing room.
04:57Okay.
04:57Send her up to Persephale's room.
05:11Are we safe now?
05:12Yes.
05:15I was afraid no one would find me.
05:21That's what happens.
05:22Mother, I need your help.
05:23There's blood on her.
05:24Riding her bed.
05:26Mother?
05:28Help her to a seat, Harry.
05:32Adam?
05:35Can you take my boot off?
05:37It's too tight.
05:47Adam, she needs a surgeon.
05:49I know.
05:51Bring me boiling water.
05:53And the strongest brandy Barton can find.
05:54Go.
05:56Help me, Harry.
06:00You'll have to cut it.
06:02Brother, could you find me some scissors?
06:04Look.
06:06No.
06:07No.
06:09No.
06:10No.
06:11No.
06:11No.
06:11No.
06:11No.
06:11No.
06:12No.
06:12No.
06:13No.
06:34I'm sorry.
06:35I'm trying to be gentle.
06:37I don't know.
07:07I don't know.
07:38I don't know.
07:48Adam?
07:50Yes, dear.
07:54Please stay with me.
08:02If you'll stay with me.
08:04I don't know.
08:13I don't know.
08:54I don't know.
08:58I don't know.
08:59I don't know.
09:02I don't know.
09:06Talk with your staff.
09:08See what you can find out.
09:10If it played any role in this attack, any, I do not want the same mistake to occur again.
09:15Yes, you could.
09:18John?
09:36Adam.
09:40May I speak with you?
09:42Please.
09:45Perhaps you should sit down.
09:47I'm so sorry, Adam.
09:50I know you wished me to help with Persephone.
09:53You must be so disappointed.
09:54Sit down, mother.
09:58Sometimes you're so like your father.
10:01Dear man.
10:04Are you unwell?
10:06I'm so mortified.
10:10You see, I've always been hopeless in a sick room.
10:14Even as a child, when anyone in the household would get so much as a cold, I would fret our
10:18dear nurse into a fit of nerves.
10:22And my mother always told me it would be different when I was a mother.
10:30You must be so ashamed of me.
10:34Being so utterly useless when you were depending on me.
10:37There was a great deal of blood earlier with Persephone.
10:40I do not blame you for not being up to the task.
10:45Well, I'm certain I only made the situation worse.
10:50I always did.
10:53The second surgeon actually sent me to the vicarage for two days.
10:58Banished.
10:59From my own home.
11:02From my poor boy.
11:03You banished?
11:04The second surgeon?
11:06I'm certain I made it worse.
11:08I was so nervous, so concerned through the first one.
11:13The first surgery.
11:13And I didn't get better.
11:16Worse, in fact.
11:19The next few surgeons insisted I be gone before they even arrived.
11:22You are referring to the surgeons who did this.
11:27And I was grateful to go.
11:31Happy to.
11:34What kind of an unnatural mother wishes to leave her child at such a time?
11:39But...
11:50Persephone is asking for you.
11:52She seems anxious.
12:15What is it, Persephone?
12:18I've been thinking back on my ride.
12:20I'm sure that can wait until you're more fully rested.
12:23What happened today...
12:26I don't believe was an accident.
12:30What has led you to that suspicion?
12:33John didn't help me mount.
12:37Usually the stable hand waits for him, but this time he didn't.
12:41And...
12:41The stable hand who helped me smelled like...
12:45Bacon?
12:46How did you know?
12:48Was it a faint aroma?
12:51No.
12:51At...
12:52At first I thought perhaps he'd been helping in the curing house or...
12:56Had slipped in a lard spill in the kitchen.
12:58The scent was so strong I could still smell it.
13:01While you were riding.
13:04Exactly.
13:06The groom who helps you mount.
13:08Does he assist you often?
13:10Occasionally.
13:11Do you know his name?
13:12Um...
13:14He wears a green handkerchief round his neck.
13:16None of the others do.
13:18John Henley will know who it is.
13:20You're going to talk to him?
13:22That groom, I mean?
13:24If he had any hand in this...
13:25I plan to do far more than just talk.
13:30What's the name of the groom who has a green handkerchief round his neck?
13:33Uh, Jimmy.
13:34He's a newer one.
13:35Quiet lake. Keeps to himself.
13:36Any idea where I might find this Jimmy?
13:38Last I saw of him, he was at the back of the stable.
13:41Where he helped to craze mount this morning.
13:43He said he reeked of bacon more than could have been accidental.
13:45What on purpose then?
13:46That's what I mean to find out.
13:47Oh, there he is.
13:49Jimmy!
13:51Smith!
13:52Do not let him get past the gate!
13:54Stop it!
13:55Now, you're going to get past the gate.
13:56No way!
13:56Do not let him get past the gate.
14:03Ah!
14:04Come on!
14:06Come on!
14:11What a hell?
14:13Let me go!
14:16Ah!
14:17Ah!
14:18Ah!
14:19Ah!
14:19Ah!
14:19Ah!
14:20There he is!
14:21This woman
14:21is Mr Smith!
14:22Who tried to kill my wife
14:26You took the only thing that mattered to me
14:29Just trying to repay the favor, Gav
14:31You'll answer this
14:33Oh, no
14:33I have a better idea
14:38Put him in the gibbet
14:41You can't do that
14:43You have to consult the law
14:45I am the Duke of Kilda
14:47I am the law
14:49I am the law
15:34Dukes aren't supposed to need people
15:36For suffering
15:37I am the law
16:28I like Fauston
16:30So do I, Linus
16:33Then why don't you look happy?
16:36Probably because I'm in pain
16:39I had no idea how long a few simple cuts could take to heal
16:42I understand they weren't simple at all
16:46Considering it might have fallen me
16:48I think of my injuries
16:49I think of my injuries as comparatively simple
16:53It is so good to have you here
16:58I am happy to see you again
17:02Don't...
17:02I already miss the sea
17:05I already miss the sea
17:07I've never missed home
17:15I believe he is home now
17:18And he is with me for the law
17:29Midshipman Lancaster
17:30If I had known that your intention in visiting here was to make your sister cry
17:34I would not have invited you
17:36You guessed why devious thoughts with alarming precision your grace
17:39Every young navy man wishes to bring their female relatives into varying states of hysteria
17:44on every possible occasion
17:46And apparently you are also intent on bringing Persephone down to her deathbed
17:51Alas, it is true
17:53Though I have momentarily forgotten how I intend to do this
17:57By keeping her out of doors
17:59And in the cold
18:00Instead of inside, warm and off her feet
18:03Oh yes, I remember now
18:04Well I suppose, since you have guessed my plot
18:07I shall have to abandon my ill-fated scheme
18:10It was inevitable
18:19Oh, thank you
18:28I will see you inside, Linus
18:34You seem pleased
18:36I've missed my brother
18:39He's not at all what I expected
18:42Your description was of an infant
18:44Imagine my shock when he walked out of a carriage
18:47No leading strings or nursemaids in sight
18:50Adam Boyce, are you teasing me?
18:53I never tease
18:54You also, apparently, never host balls
18:58Yet you are doing exactly that tomorrow
19:01Clearly I have begun a descent into senulity
19:05You are in the oddest mood this evening
19:10You have no idea
19:17I don't know if I can see you alive
19:23Do you know?
19:24I don't know if I can see you сейчас
19:35You are in the oddest mood
19:37I know how to advise you
19:38I don't know if I will
19:40And I don't have some honest
19:41I don't know if I can see you
19:41I don't know if my father could be
19:49Persephone seems to be wondering where you are.
19:51Has she asked after me?
19:55Just the look on her face.
19:57We could always tell growing up when she was worrying about one of us.
20:02She must have worried a lot.
20:04Persephone held with the family together after Muammar died.
20:09How old was she?
20:11Twelve.
20:13She very suddenly lost what was left of her childhood.
20:17You did as well.
20:19Her life these past eight years has been one unending sacrifice for the sake of the family.
20:26Including her marriage?
20:31Do you know why my papa named Persephone as he did?
20:35Obsession with all things Greek.
20:37Other than that.
20:39The story of Persephone is his favourite.
20:43Seems an odd favourite to me.
20:46Not when you look at it as he does.
20:48The part counts himself amongst the scholars of the classics who believe that Hades didn't
20:52trick Persephone at all.
20:54And that they both decided together that she'd eat the pomegranate seeds.
20:58Because it meant that nothing could prevent Persephone from returning to him.
21:04But why would she return?
21:06It was the reason for her return.
21:08That indeed the goddess of my father.
21:11The seeds?
21:12The seeds were symbolic.
21:14Symbolic of what?
21:27I know disappearing balls is one of your particular talents.
21:32But it does not reflect well on your wife.
21:35You really ought to go and sit beside her.
21:37What I really ought to do is hang you out your bedchamber windows by a bedsheet wrapped
21:40around your ankles.
21:43Welcome back old friend.
21:46You've been shockingly softly.
21:48Oh shut up.
21:49Harry!
21:51Harry!
22:17What do the pomegranate seeds symbolize?
22:20What?
22:22In the Persephone myth, Linus said the seeds are symbols.
22:26Has he been waxing philosophical?
22:29That is the one trait he inherited from Papa.
22:34What do they symbolize?
22:37According to Papa, the seeds are symbolic of love.
22:41Hades' love for Persephone, her love for him.
22:45How could she love someone who kept her prisoner?
22:49Papa always believed she came to know him beyond his fearsome demeanor and came to love him.
22:54Hades fell in love with Persephone as well. She was his match.
23:00But if they were so in love, then why did she leave at all?
23:05If she had eaten all the seeds, she would have stayed forever.
23:08Hades did not force her to remain because her family needed her.
23:12Hades never let anyone leave his realm.
23:16Hades loved Persephone.
23:24He let her go because he loved her.
23:28She returned because she loved him.
23:32Hades of Persephone.
23:33Hades of Persephone.
24:10thank you for the ball Adam
24:14it was wonderful
24:17you were happy
24:20you weren't disappointed
24:24what
24:27what more were you hoping for
24:32I've never danced at a ball
24:36very often imagine doing so
24:39I had no intention
24:40of asking you to do yet another unpleasant thing today
24:43and yet
24:44I would enjoy
24:48dancing with you
24:51you would endure it
24:52I'm certain
25:05I want to dance with you
25:09the musicians have all left
25:11we don't need them
25:19my leg is
25:22it's still too weak to hold me for long
25:26then allow me
25:27to hold you
25:42I want to dance with you
25:42I want to dance with you
25:43I want to dance with you
26:07Linus leaves for structure in the morning to visit your family.
26:13Yes, I know.
26:15You will be leaving with him.
26:17That was not the plan.
26:18It should have been.
26:20It should always have been.
26:23The two of you can depart immediately following breakfast in the morning.
26:28Will you be journeying with us?
26:33I belong at Fauston Castle.
26:41And where do I belong?
26:51Your family needs you.
26:54And what about you, Adam?
27:01Do you think so near me?
27:04Do you think so near me?
27:28I don't know.
27:41You'd best not keep the horses standing, Mother.
27:44It'll only take a moment, and it is more important than me making a timely departure.
27:51Your father and I had an arranged marriage.
27:56No accounting was made for the differences in our dispositions.
28:00I was raised in town, among society.
28:06London, the tonne, it's what I knew and needed.
28:11Your father was raised here, in quiet and solitude.
28:18We wanted very different things in life.
28:24We tried to compromise, to blend our preferences.
28:31But he begrudged the balls and gatherings held here, and came to rather despise my need for company.
28:39He wouldn't have...
28:40I will admit, I likewise began to view my relationship to Fulsternan, by extension him, through a lens of bitterness.
28:52I do not wish to hear this.
28:54Resentment grows quickly, Adam.
28:59Your father was a good man, despite his implacableness.
29:05I held out hope for so long, in my foolishly romantic heart, that he would come for me while I
29:13was away.
29:15He never did.
29:18Did you tell him that that was what you were hoping for?
29:22I was so young, only seventeen, when we married.
29:27In my naivete, I believed that if he truly cared, he would meet me part way.
29:38You are more willing to compromise than your father ever was.
29:43And Persephone is more suited to quiet and solitude than I ever will be.
29:50She is your match, Adam.
29:53Do not throw away this chance by making her guess at your feelings.
30:22She has a point, you know.
30:27Every other guest has left the castle, Harry.
30:30Why haven't you?
30:33I am here to be your conscience, to save you from yourself.
30:43She will come back.
30:47When Linus returns to his ship, Persephone will return to Foster.
30:52And I know you well enough to predict that you will act as though you couldn't care less whether she
30:56is here or not.
30:59Do you really want her to wonder about that?
31:02This is none of your concern, Harry.
31:10You miss her.
31:12And she deserves to know that.
31:16She is happy with her family.
31:18How long can't be part of her family?
31:21Who disrupts her?
31:21That isn't how it works.
31:24How it works.
31:28Persephone receives her reprieve and Hades stays in the underworld waiting to see if the seeds work.
31:36Obviously, you were sleeping during that lecture at Harrow.
31:42Hades did not sit back and wait for Persephone.
31:45When the time came, Hades slipped past the hellhounds and ventured into the realm of the living to reclaim his
31:52bride.
31:54I did not remember that.
31:56I did not remember that.
31:58Hades was no Pamsey Fribble, Adam.
32:02And I'd better pony, his Persephone,
32:05knew exactly how her husband felt about her.
32:10In the winter.
32:19Okay.
32:24Sure.
32:46Are you sure you're warm enough?
32:49I'm dressed as warmly as I am at home.
32:51It is far colder there.
32:53You speak very fondly of Fullstone Castle.
32:56I've come to love it, Athena.
32:59More than just the castle.
33:02I hope I'm not out of lying in saying that you seem to miss the castle.
33:11I do.
33:13Then why do you seem so sad whenever anyone mentions you going back?
33:16I do not merely think it is because you'll miss us.
33:20Probably because I'm not entirely certain what I will find when I return.
33:26You could always just stay here.
33:30My heart is there.
33:33I hope the castle knows how fortunate he is.
33:58Adam.
34:02How have you come to take me home?
34:05When you're ready.
34:08But I...
34:10I wanted to see Shropshire.
34:13To see where you grew up.
34:16You did?
34:19And...
34:20And get to know your family.
34:24And I...
34:27I...
34:29Hades always went off to Persephone.
34:31Did he?
34:34Yes.
34:35He did.
34:39He waited as long as he had to.
34:42And then he left his kingdom and he did not come back until he found her.
34:48I think Hades must have missed his wife.
34:52I think he knew to the very minute how long she'd been gone.
34:57But was Persephone as anxious to return as he was to have her with him again?
35:01Yes.
35:02She was.
35:17Why did Hades go after her?
35:22He must have loved her.
35:24Go on.
35:25He did.
35:26He did more than he could even express.
35:28He did more than he could ever offer.
35:34He did more than he could ever offer.
35:35But...
35:37But did Persephone love him in spite of his flaws?
35:42In spite of deserving so much better than he could ever offer?
35:46Oh, Adam.
35:48Am I too late?
35:50Is there nothing that I can...
35:51You said you belong at Fauston.
35:55Only at Fauston.
35:57I belong with you.
36:19I do love you, Adam.
36:22I do love you, Adam.
36:32And the Tom will not believe it, even if they heard you say that.
36:36We shall have to convince them.
36:39I may enjoy London yet.
36:42Does this mean I can come to your castle?
36:46Our castle is in need of a good exploration.
36:52Perhaps if you have no other plans for Christmas, you could undertake one then.
36:58Athena!
36:59Daphne!
37:01You realize she will bring the rest of the family, and Fauston will be overrun with people.
37:10Well, there is probably a chance I will be in a foul mood from time to time.
37:18You may once again have to save me from myself.
37:23You have done that, do you know?
37:26Safety.
37:27Safety.
37:31Oh, my Persephone.
37:34Do you know that I would have come for you, no matter how far you'd have gone?
37:42Hades always came for Persephone.
37:48And she always returned home.
37:54Always.
38:01Hades always came for you, no matter how far you'd have gone.
38:09Hades always came for you, no matter how far you'd have gone.
38:10Hades always came for you, no matter how far you'd have gone.
38:10Hades always came for you, no matter how far you'd have gone.
38:10Hades always came for you, no matter how far you'd have gone.
