00:00This gentleman is clearly ill.
00:03I run in a charity, Gough.
00:05Here's hoping we can do business again in the future.
00:08We will.
00:09Adam, why did you decide to get married?
00:12At the time, it seemed like a good idea.
00:15I just kissed Persephone.
00:17I noticed.
00:18She is lonely in this empty castle.
00:22I heard them, Adam! The walls, they're inside Falston!
00:24They are not inside the castle walls, Persephone.
00:27I want to know why you've stayed around all these years.
00:31We're friends, Adam.
00:32All of the balls you held for Mother weren't enough to keep her here,
00:36so by the blasted blazes am I trying the same approach?
00:39I have promised you that your brother will visit you here,
00:42and that Falston Castle will host a ball,
00:44and no one, not Harry, not anyone else,
00:47will browbeat me into going back on that promise to you.
00:51I want to believe that.
01:24I want to believe that.
01:26Johnny?
01:27Please have Atlas saddled. I wish to ride to the Vicarage.
01:30First ride outside the castle gate.
01:32I'm ready.
01:34Very good, Your Grace.
02:17Oh, it means it's getting cold.
02:23Zeus, steady Zeus.
02:27Oh, have you found her?
02:30Her?
02:31Her Grace, we were riding to the Vicarage and Atlas bolted without warning.
02:36She's not that good a rider yet and I'm afraid she might have become unseated.
02:40And what with that pack sound so close and angry?
02:42Persephone!
02:43She's not answering.
02:47Persephone!
02:48Yeah, yeah!
03:10We need to find the pack!
03:11Now, I'll stick with that myself, Your Grace!
03:25Oh, steady Zeus.
03:28Steady.
03:29Steady.
03:31I heard that too, Your Grace.
03:33We're getting closer.
03:38Let's go.
04:10I don't know.
04:52To me, Persephone!
04:55Adam!
04:56Stay next to me.
04:57Stay next to me.
05:05John, interrupt to me.
05:07Take Atlas back if you can.
05:09We'll be quick about it.
05:10The pack won't stay spooked for long.
05:13Is that me?
05:14Or drown me.
05:15Hold fast.
05:16When we reach the road, we are going to run.
05:39Everyone has to be armed.
05:41The pack's within yards of the castle.
05:42When John Henley is through that gate, they have to be closed immediately.
05:46Yes, you can.
05:47I'm so dizzy.
05:47Can you walk?
05:48I think so.
05:56She was thrown from a horse out in the forest.
05:58It's a possibility she's broken her ankle.
06:00Should I have a surgeon sent for?
06:02No.
06:02The wolves are prowling just outside the gate.
06:04It isn't safe for anyone to go in or out.
06:06They have never done that before.
06:08Persephone?
06:09Where is mother?
06:11Drawing room, I think.
06:12Send her up to Persephone's room.
06:26Are we safe now?
06:28Yes.
06:30I was afraid no one would find me.
06:36Ask for her.
06:37Mother, I need your help.
06:38There's blood on her riding habit.
06:42Mother?
06:44Help her to a seat, Harry.
06:48Adam?
06:50Just...
06:51Can you take my boot off?
06:54It's too tight.
06:56No.
06:58No.
06:58No.
06:59No.
07:02No.
07:02No.
07:04No.
07:05No.
07:08No.
07:09No.
07:09No.
07:10No.
07:12OK.
07:14No.
07:15No.
07:15No.
07:17Then head in your photo.
07:18You'll have to cut it.
07:19He goes back.
07:21I'm not lying.
07:48yes
07:53I'm sorry
07:54I'm trying to be gentle
08:29I'm trying to be gentle
09:00Adam
09:14yes dear
09:17please stay with me
09:26if you will stay with me
09:39Barton said you wanted to speak with me
09:43how is her grace
09:45sleeping
09:48I know it ain't seemingly me talking to you and here but
09:53well I think I know
09:56I have an idea why the pack attacked Atlas
09:59and I thought you might want to know sooner
10:01than later even if telling you means overstepping yourself a bit
10:04you aren't overstepping
10:06what have you discovered
10:08while we were cleaning Atlas wounds
10:11we couldn't help but notice that she smelled strongly of bacon
10:16of bacon?
10:17it might be why the wolves attacked Atlas
10:19but weren't so intent on getting a mate on my horse or at Ewan's house
10:24her grace might have picked up some of that smell
10:28that'd be why they were hunting her
10:33talk with your staff
10:35see what you can find out
10:37if it played any role
10:38in this attack
10:39any
10:40I do not want the same mistake to occur again
10:43yes you Chris
10:46John
10:51thank you
11:05Adam
11:08may I speak with you
11:09please
11:14perhaps you should sit down
11:15I'm so sorry
11:17Adam
11:19I know you wished me to help with Persephone
11:21you must be so disappointed
11:23sit down mother
11:28sometimes you're so like your father
11:31dear man
11:33are you unwell?
11:36I'm so mortified
11:40you see I've always been hopeless in a sick room
11:43even as a child
11:45when anyone in the household
11:46would get so much as a cold
11:47I would
11:48fret our dear nurse
11:49into a fit of nerves
11:52and my mother always told me
11:55it would be different
11:56when I was a mother
12:01you must be so ashamed of me
12:05being so utterly useless
12:07when you were depending on me
12:08there was a great deal of blood earlier with Persephone
12:11I do not blame you
12:13for not being up to the task
12:17well I'm certain I only made the situation worse
12:22I always did
12:25the second surgeon
12:26actually sent me to the vicarage
12:27for two days
12:30banished
12:31from my own home
12:34from my poor boy
12:35banished?
12:36the second surgeon
12:38I'm certain I made it worse
12:41I was so nervous
12:42so concerned
12:44through the first one
12:45the first surgery
12:46and I didn't get better
12:49worse in fact
12:52the next few surgeons
12:53insisted I be gone
12:54before they even arrived
12:55you are referring to the surgeons
12:57who did this
13:00and I was grateful to go
13:04happy to
13:08what kind of an unnatural mother
13:10wishes to leave her child
13:12at such a time
13:25Persephone is asking for you
13:27she seems anxious
13:51what is it Persephone?
13:54I've been thinking back on my ride
13:56surely that can wait
13:57until you're more fully rested
13:59what happened today
14:02I don't believe
14:03was an accident
14:07what has led you
14:08to that suspicion?
14:10John didn't help me mount
14:14usually the stable hand
14:16waits for him
14:16but this time
14:17he didn't
14:18and
14:19the stable hand
14:20who helped me
14:21smelled like
14:22bacon?
14:24how did you know?
14:26was it a faint aroma?
14:28no
14:29at
14:30at first I thought
14:31perhaps he'd been
14:32helping in the
14:33curing house
14:34or
14:35had slipped in a lard spiel
14:36in the kitchen
14:37the scent was so strong
14:38I could still smell it
14:39while you were riding
14:43exactly
14:45the groom who helps you mount
14:47does he assist you often?
14:49occasionally
14:49do you know his name?
14:52he wears a green handkerchief
14:54round his neck
14:55none of the others do
14:58John Henley will know
14:58who it is
15:00you're going to talk to him
15:02that groom I mean?
15:03if he had any hand in this
15:05I plan to do far more
15:06than just talk
15:10what's the name of the groom
15:11who has a green handkerchief
15:12round his neck?
15:13Jimmy
15:13he's a newer one
15:14quiet lake
15:15keeps to himself
15:16any idea where I might
15:17find this Jimmy?
15:18last I saw out of him
15:20he was at the back
15:20of the stable
15:21where he helped
15:22to craze mount this morning
15:23and she said he reeked
15:24of bacon
15:24more than could have
15:25been accidental
15:25what on purpose then?
15:26that's what I mean
15:27to find out
15:27oh there he is
15:29Jimmy!
15:32Smith!
15:33do not let him
15:34get past the gate
15:35stop him!
16:01this woman
16:03is Mr. Smith
16:05who tried to kill
16:07my wife
16:08you took
16:10the only thing
16:11that mattered to me
16:12just to render
16:13a pay the favor
16:14guff
16:14you'll end for this
16:15oh no
16:16I have
16:17a better idea

17:20Dukes aren't supposed to need people, Persephone.
17:54Dukes aren't supposed to need people.
17:58Dukes aren't supposed to need people.
18:22Dukes aren't supposed to need people.
18:25Probably because I'm in pain.
18:28I had no idea how long a few simple cuts could take to heal.
18:32I understand they weren't simple at all.
18:35Considering it might befall in me, I think of my injuries as comparatively simple.
18:43It is so good to have you here.
18:49I am happy to see you again.
18:51Don't.
18:53I already missed the sea.
18:58Evander, I never missed home.
19:06I believe he is home now.
19:09And he is with me as well.
19:20Midshipman Lancaster, if I had known that your intention in visiting here was to make your
19:25sister cry, I would not have invited you.
19:28You guessed why Divus flocked with alarming precision, Your Grace.
19:32Every young navy man wishes to bring their female relatives into varying states of hysteria
19:37on every possible occasion.
19:39And apparently you are also intent on bringing Persephone down to her deathbed.
19:44Alas, it is true, though I have momentarily forgotten how I intend to do this.
19:50By keeping her out of doors and in the cold, instead of inside, warm and off her feet.
19:57Ah yes, I remember now.
19:58But I suppose, since you have guessed my plot, I shall have to abandon my ill-fated scheme.
20:03It was inevitable.
20:13Oh, thank you.
20:23I will see you inside, Linus.
20:29You seem pleased.
20:31I've missed my brother.
20:34He's not at all what I expected.
20:37Your description was of an infant.
20:40Imagine my shock when he walked out of the carriage.
20:43No leading strings or nursemaids in sight.
20:46Adam Boyce, are you teasing me?
20:48I never tease.
20:50You also, apparently, never host balls.
20:54Yet you are doing exactly that tomorrow.
20:57Clearly, I have begun a descent into senility.
21:01You are in the oddest mood this evening.
21:07You have no idea.
21:27Jane is dostermeism...
21:48You are with Elliot of Michael and I...
21:49Because, whenever she говорит my brother there and him,
21:49who's nosotros that you are...
21:50Must be better than you are.
21:50And why she knows me?
21:54Former mom, you are doing great things.
21:54If you've played my head like to happen around...
21:55You've been an praw perILLari.
21:55If you've played my head like this Ryan,
21:56We could always tell growing up when she was worrying about one of us.
22:01She must have worried a lot.
22:03She was definitely a hell of the family together after my ma died.
22:08How old was she?
22:11Twelve.
22:13She very suddenly lost what was left of her childhood.
22:17You did as well.
22:19Her life these past eight years has been one unending sacrifice for the sake of the family.
22:27Including her marriage?
22:32Do you know what my papa named Persephone as he did?
22:36Obsession with all things Greek.
22:38Other than that, the story of Persephone is his favourite.
22:45Seems an odd favourite to me.
22:48Not when you look at it as he does.
22:50Papa counts himself amongst the scholars of the classics who believe that Hades didn't trick Persephone.
22:55at all.
22:56And that they both decided together that she'd eat the pomegranate seeds.
23:00Because it meant that nothing could prevent Persephone from returning to him.
23:06But why would she return?
23:08It was the reason for her return.
23:10That indeed the goddess of my father.
23:13The seeds?
23:15The seeds are symbolic.
23:17Symbolic of what?
23:31I know disappearing balls is one of your particular talents.
23:36But it does not reflect well on your wife.
23:39You really ought to go and sit beside her.
23:41What I really ought to do is hang you out your bedchamber windows by a bedsheet wrapped around your ankles.
23:48Welcome back, old friend.
23:50You've been shockingly soft lately.
23:52Oh, shut up.
23:53Harry!
23:55Harry!
23:55Harry!
23:59Harry!
24:00Harry!
24:01Harry!
24:01Harry!
24:02Harry!
24:02Harry!
24:04Harry!
24:24What do the pomegranate seeds symbolize?
24:27What?
24:28In the Persephone myth, Linus said the seeds are symbols.
24:33Has he been waxing philosophical?
24:35That is the one trait he inherited from Papa.
24:41What do they symbolize?
24:44According to Papa, the seeds are symbolic of love.
24:48Hades' love for Persephone, her love for him.
24:52How could she love someone who kept her prisoner?
24:57Papa always believed she came to know him beyond his fearsome demeanor and came to love him.
25:02Hades fell in love with Persephone as well.
25:04She was his match.
25:08But if they were so in love, then why did she leave at all?
25:13If she had eaten all the seeds, she would have stayed forever.
25:17Hades did not force her to remain because her family needed her.
25:22Hades never let anyone leave his realm.
25:25Hades loved Persephone.
25:33He let her go because he loved her.
25:37She returned because she loved him.
25:39Hades was his father.
25:41Hades was his father.
25:48Hades never let him know him.
26:05Hades never let him know him.
26:22thank you for the ball Adam
26:26it was wonderful
26:29you were happy
26:32you weren't disappointed
26:36what
26:40what more were you hoping for
26:45I've never danced at a ball
26:49though I've often imagined doing so
26:52I had no intention
26:53of asking you to do yet another unpleasant thing today
26:57and yet
26:58I would enjoy
27:01dancing with you
27:04you would endure it
27:06I'm certain
27:19I want to dance with you
27:23the musicians have all left
27:26we don't need them
27:34my leg is
27:37still too weak to hold me for long
27:41then allow me
27:42to hold you
27:44next round
28:12I want to dance with you
28:25Linus leaves for structure in the morning to visit your family.
28:31Yes, I know.
28:33You will be leaving with him.
28:35That was not the plan.
28:36It should have been.
28:38It should always have been.
28:41The two of you can depart immediately following breakfast in the morning.
28:47Will you be journeying with us?
28:52I belong at Falston Castle.
29:00And where do I belong?
29:11Your family needs you.
29:14And what about you, Adam?
29:21Dukes don't need people.
29:42And what about you?
30:03You'd best not keep the horses standing, Mother.
30:06It'll only take a moment, and it is more important than me making a timely departure.
30:14Your father and I had an arranged marriage.
30:19No accounting was made for the differences in our dispositions.
30:23I was raised in town, among society.
30:30London, the tonne, it's what I knew and needed.
30:35Your father was raised here, in quiet and solitude.
30:42We wanted very different things in life.
30:48We tried to compromise, to blend our preferences.
30:56But he begrudged the balls and gatherings held here, and came to rather despise my need for company.
31:04He wouldn't have...
31:05I will admit, I likewise began to view my relationship to Fulston, and by extension him, through a lens of
31:17bitterness.
31:18I do not wish to hear this.
31:19Resentment grows quickly, Adam.
31:25Your father was a good man, despite his implacableness.
31:31I held out hope for so long, in my foolishly romantic heart, that he would come for me while I
31:40was away.
31:42He never did.
31:45Did you tell him that that was what you were hoping for?
31:50I was so young.
31:52Only seventeen when we married.
31:55In my naivete, I believed that if he truly cared, he would meet me partway.
32:06You are more willing to compromise than your father ever was.
32:11And Persephone is more suited to quiet and solitude than I ever will be.
32:18She is your match, Adam.
32:22Do not throw away this chance by making her guess at your feelings.
32:52She has a point, you know.
32:57Every other guest has left the castle, Harry.
33:00Why haven't you?
33:04I am here to be your conscience.
33:07To save you from yourself.
33:14She will come back.
33:18When Linus returns to his ship, Persephone will return to Fauston.
33:24And I know you well enough to predict that you will act as though you couldn't care less whether she
33:28is here or not.
33:31Do you really want her to wonder about that?
33:34This is none of your concern, Harry.
33:43You miss her.
33:45And she deserves to know that.
33:49She is happy with her family.
33:51Then go be part of her family.
33:54Go to Shropshire.
33:55That isn't how it works.
33:57That isn't how it works.
33:58How it works.
34:02Persephone receives her reprieve.
34:05And Hades stays in the underworld, waiting to see if the seeds work.
34:10Obviously you were sleeping during that lecture at Harrow.
34:16Hades did not sit back and wait for Persephone.
34:20When the time came, when the time came, Hades slipped past the hellhounds and ventured into the realm of the
34:25living to reclaim his bride.
34:29I do not remember that.
34:33Hades was no Pamsey Fribble, Adam.
34:37And I'd bet a pony his Persephone knew exactly how her husband felt about her.
34:45I had to meet her in my eyes.
34:50I was looks great to see if her husband first stopped when he arrived.
34:56I know it was a démocrate man, bitch.
35:00He took my boat before we expected him to build him.
35:01But I liked him.
35:05I was amazed to see how she was an billionaire.
35:07I would love to say, mum, because she did something you after this year.
35:08The
35:08My Lord Herr Nana
35:09My Lord told her he loved him to be the next 4rito However, I held to become
35:14his journey in Hades, because we watched him reconstruction on earth.
35:24Are you sure you're warm enough?
35:27I'm dressed as warmly as I am at home.
35:29It is far colder there.
35:31You speak very fondly of Fullstone Castle.
35:34I've come to love it, Athena.
35:37More than just the castle.
35:40I hope I'm not that of lying and saying that
35:44you seem to miss the castle.
35:50I do.
35:52Then why do you seem so sad
35:53whenever anyone mentions you going back?
35:55I do not merely think it is because you'll miss us.
35:59Probably because I'm not entirely certain
36:01what I will find when I return.
36:06You could always just stay here.
36:09My heart is there.
36:13I hope the castle knows how fortunate he is.
36:38Adam.
36:44Have you come to take me home?
36:47When you're ready.
36:50But I...
36:51I wanted to see Shropshire.
36:56To see where you grew up.
36:58You did?
36:59And get to know your family.
37:06And I...
37:08I...
37:11Hades always went after Persephone.
37:16Yes.
37:18He did.
37:22He waited as long as he had to.
37:26And then he left his kingdom
37:27and he did not come back
37:28until he found her.
37:31I think Hades must have missed his wife.
37:36I think he knew to the very minute
37:38how long she'd been gone.
37:41But was Persephone as anxious to return
37:44as he was to have her with him again?
37:46Yes.
37:47She was.
38:02Why did Hades go after her?
38:08He must have loved her.
38:09Oh, he did.
38:12He did more than he could even express.
38:15Yes.
38:15Yes.
38:17Yes.
38:20But...
38:23But did Persephone love him
38:25in spite of his flaws?
38:28In spite of deserving so much better
38:30than he could ever offer?
38:33Oh, Adam.
38:34Am I too late?
38:37Is there nothing that I can...
38:38You said you belong at Fauston.
38:42Only at Fauston.
38:44I belong with you.
39:08I do love you, Adam.
39:20And the Tom would not believe it
39:22even if they heard you say that.
39:25We shall have to convince them.
39:28I may enjoy London yet.
39:31Does this mean I can come to your castle?
39:35Our castle is in need of a good exploration.
39:42Perhaps if you have no other plans for Christmas,
39:45you could undertake one then.
39:48Athena!
39:49Daphne!
39:51You realise you will bring the rest of the family
39:54and Fauston will be overrun with people.
40:01Well...
40:02And there is probably a chance
40:03I will be in a foul mood
40:05from time to time.
40:09You may once again have to save me from myself.
40:15You have done that, do you know?
40:18Saved you.
40:21Oh, my Persephone.
40:26Do you know that I would have come for you
40:30no matter how far you'd gone?
40:34Hades always came for Persephone.
40:41And she always returned home.
40:47Always.
40:57Always.
41:02Have a good night.
41:19Oh, my God.
41:20I love you.
41:25Yeah, and I love you.
41:26Bye.
41:26Bye.
41:26Bye.
41:26Bye.
41:29Bye.
