00:00This gentleman is clearly ill.
00:03I run in a charity, Guff.
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,
00:35so why 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.
00:50I want to believe that.
01:24John?
01:27Please have Atlas saddled. I wish to ride to the Vicarage.
01:30First ride outside the castle gates.
01:32I'm ready.
01:34Very good, Your Grace.
01:39Feel right in front of the portal.
01:39Muhammad's da is now ready.
01:39Thanks.
01:59Anthony, right for this town hall работы…
02:04Mr.
02:17Oh, it means it's getting cold.
02:23Zeus.
02:24Steady Zeus.
02:27Oh.
02:28Have you found it?
02:30Huh?
02:31Oh Grace, we're riding to the vicarage and that
02:34was bolted without warning.
02:36She's not that good a rider yet and I'm afraid she might have
02:38become unseated.
02:40And what with that pack sounding so close and angry.
02:42Ms. Stephanie!
02:43She's not answering.
02:47Ms. Stephanie!
02:48Yeah!
02:48Yeah!
03:05Yeah!
03:07Yeah!
03:07Yeah!
03:08Yeah!
03:08Yeah!
03:09We need to find the pack!
03:11Now, figure that meself, you Grace!
03:26Whoa!
03:27Steady Zeus.
03:28Steady.
03:29Steady.
03:31I heard that too, you Grace.
03:32We're getting closer.
03:37Hyah!
03:38Hyah!
03:41Hyah!
03:42Hyah!
03:44Hyah!
03:45Hyah!
03:50Hyah!
03:55Hyah!
04:02Hyah!
04:03Hyah!
04:05Hyah!
04:07Hyah!
04:08Hyah!
04:09Hyah!
04:10Hyah!
04:10Hyah!
04:12Hyah!
04:13Hyah!
04:13Hyah!
04:14Hyah!
04:14Hyah!
04:15Hyah!
04:15Hyah!
04:15Hyah!
04:23I don't know.
04:52To me, Persephone!
04:55Adam!
04:56Stay next to me. Stay next to me.
05:05John, interrupt to me.
05:07Take Atlas back if you can.
05:09We'll be quick about it. The pack won't stay spooked for long.
05:13Is that me?
05:14Arms around me.
05:15Hold fast. When we reach the road, we are going to run.
05:39Everyone has to be armed. The pack's within the eyes of the castle.
05:42When John Hanley is through that gate, they are 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 of the forest. It's a possibility she's broken her ankle.
06:00Should I have a surgeon sent for?
06:01No. The 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.
06:07Persephone?
06:09Where is Mother?
06:10Drawing room, I think.
06:11Send her up to Persephone's room.
06:26Are we safe now?
06:28Yes.
06:30I was afraid no one would find me.
06:36That's what happens.
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?
06:51Can you take my boot off?
06:54It's too tight.
07:04Adam, she needs a surgeon.
07:05I know.
07:08Bring me boiling water and the strongest brandy Barton can find.
07:11Go.
07:13Help me, Harry.
07:17You'll have to cut it.
07:19Mother, could you find me some scissors?
07:30Hold her still.
07:31I don't want to accidentally cut her.
07:36I don't want to accidentally cut her.
07:48Yes.
07:53I'm sorry, Persephone.
07:55I'm trying to be gentle.
08:03Oh, my God.
08:53Oh, my God.
08:56Oh, my God.
09:00Adam?
09:14Yes, dear?
09:17Please stay with me.
09:26If you will stay with me.
09:28Oh, my God.
09:39Barton said you wanted to speak with me.
09:40Oh, my God.
09:42Oh, my God.
09:43How is it, Grace?
09:45Sleeping.
09:48I know it ain't seemly me talking to you in here, but I think I know.
09:56I have an idea why the pack attacked Atlas, and I thought you might want to know sooner than later,
10:02even 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, we couldn't help but notice that she smelled strongly of bacon.
10:16Of bacon?
10:17It might be why the wolves attacked Atlas, but weren't so intent on getting a mate on my horse or
10:22at Ewan's house.
10:25Grace 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 in this attack, any, I do not want the same mistake to occur again.
10:43Yes, you, Chris.
10:46John?
11:05Adam.
11:08May I speak with you?
11:10Please.
11:14Perhaps you should sit down.
11:16I'm so sorry, Adam.
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, when anyone in the household would get so much as a cold, I would fret our
11:48dear nurse into a fit of nerves.
11:52And my mother always told me it would be different when I was a mother.
12:01You must be so ashamed of me.
12:05Being so utterly useless when you were depending on me.
12:09There was a great deal of blood earlier with Persephone.
12:11I do not blame you for not being up to the task.
12:17Well, I'm certain I only made the situation worse.
12:21I always did.
12:25The second surgeon actually sent me to the Vicarage for two days.
12:30Banished.
12:31From my own home.
12:34From my poor boy.
12:36Banished.
12:36The second surgeon.
12:38I'm certain I made it worse.
12:41I was so nervous, so concerned through the first one.
12:45The first surgery.
12:46And I didn't get better.
12:49Worse, in fact.
12:52The next few surgeons insisted I be gone before they even arrived.
12:55You are referring to the surgeons who did this.
13:00And I was grateful to go.
13:04Happy to.
13:08What kind of an unnatural mother wishes to leave her child at such a time?
13:13But...
13:25Persephone is asking for you.
13:27She seems anxious.
13:51What is it, Persephone?
13:54I've been thinking back on my ride.
13:56Well, surely that can wait until you're more fully rested.
14:00What happened today...
14:02I don't believe was an accident.
14:07What has led you to that suspicion?
14:10John didn't help me mount.
14:14Usually the stable hand waits for him, but this time he didn't.
14:18And...
14:19This stable hand who helped me smelled like...
14:22Bacon?
14:24How did you know?
14:26Was it a faint aroma?
14:28No.
14:30At first I thought perhaps he'd been helping in the curing house or...
14:34Had slipped in a lard spill in the kitchen.
14:36The scent was so strong I could still smell it.
14:39While you were riding.
14:43Exactly.
14:45The groom who helped you mount.
14:47Does he assist you often?
14:49Occasionally.
14:50Do you know his name?
14:52Um...
14:52He wears a green handkerchief round his neck.
14:55None of the others do.
14:58John Henley will know who 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 than just talk.
15:09What's the name of the groom who has a green handkerchief round his neck?
15:12Uh, Jimmy.
15:13He's a newer one.
15:15Quiet lake.
15:15Keeps to himself.
15:16Any idea where I might find this Jimmy?
15:18Last I saw out of him, he was at the back of the stable.
15:21Where he helped to craze him out this morning.
15:23And she said he reeked of bacon more than could have been accidental.
15:25What on purpose then?
15:26That's what I mean to find out.
15:28Oh, there he is.
15:29Jimmy!
15:32Smith!
15:33Do not let him get past the gate!
15:35Stop him!
15:57Ah.
15:59Ah!
16:00Ah!
16:01Ah!
16:02This vermin...
16:04...is Mr. Smith...
16:05...who tried to kill...
16:07...my...
16:08...wife!
16:09You took the only thing that mattered to me, just trying to repay the favor, Gav.
16:15You'll end for this.
16:16Oh no.
16:16I have a better idea.
16:21Put him in the gibbet.
16:24What?
16:25You can't do that!
16:26You have to consult the law!
16:28I am the Duke of Kilda!
16:31I am the law!
16:49I am ready!
16:53They turn around and are creative in my wantoners.
17:00I love you.
17:07I've never realized that this is agent and harusem.
17:20Dukes aren't supposed to need people, Persephone.
18:06Dukes aren't supposed to need people, Persephone.
18:17Dukes aren't supposed to need people, Persephone.
18:17I like Boston.
18:19So do I, Linus.
18:22Then why don't you look happy?
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 have befallen 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.
18:50Don't.
18:53I already missed the sea.
18:58Evander only ever missed home.
19:06I believe he is home now.
19:08And here is with Mama.
19:20Midshipman Lancaster.
19:22If I had known that your intention in visiting here was to make your sister cry, I would not have
19:27invited you.
19:28You guessed my divi's plot with alarming precision, Your Grace.
19:32Every young navy man wishes to bring their female relatives into varying states of hysteria on every possible occasion.
19:39And apparently you are also intent on bringing Persephone down to her deathbed.
19:44Alas, it is true.
19:46Though 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.
20:03What do you mean?
20:04It was inevitable.
20:13Oh, thank you.
20:22I 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.
20:42No 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.
21:06You have no idea.
21:08Bobo Brioche.
21:09Absolutely.
21:14Thank you for seeing.
21:31Yeah!
21:33situately.
21:47Persephone seems to be wondering where you are.
21:50Has she asked after me?
21:54Just the look on her face.
21:56We could always tell growing up when she was worrying about one of us.
22:01She must have worried a lot.
22:03Persephone held the family together after Mamma 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?
22:31Do you know why 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.
22:50Mark counts himself amongst the scholars of the classics who believe that Hades didn't trick Persephone at 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.
23:16Symbolic 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, Harry.
24:24What do the pomegranate seeds symbolise?
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 symbolise?
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 demeanour 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.
25:27Hades loved Persephone.
25:33He let her go because he loved her.
25:37She returned because she loved him.
26:07Hades loved 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, though I've often imagined doing so.
26:52I had no intention of asking you to do yet another unpleasant thing today, and yet...
27:00I would enjoy dancing with you.
27:04You would endure it, I'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 still too weak to hold me for long.
27:41Then allow me to hold you?
27:55No mind will be like that.
27:58We want you to see your ears on my face.
27:58See you later.
27:58Thanks for everything.
27:58Bye!
27:58Bye-bye!
28:00Bye-bye!
28:02Bye-bye!
28:07Bye-bye!
28:11Bye-bye!
28:25Linus leaves for Shropshire 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 Fauston Castle.
29:00And where do I belong?
29:11Your family needs you.
29:14And what about you, Adam?
29:21Dukes don't need people.
29:29I can't wait.
29:40I love you.
29:40This is not the truth.
29:41You know, I'm ayn.
29:44I love you.
30:03you'd best not keep the horses standing mother it'll only take a moment and it is more important
30:09than me making a timely departure your father and i had an arranged marriage no accounting was made for
30:20the differences in our dispositions i was raised in town among society london baton it's what i knew and
30:33needed your father was raised here in quiet and solitude we wanted very different things in life
30:48we tried to compromise
30:52to blend our preferences
30:55but he begrudged the balls and gatherings held here and
31:00came to rather despise my need for company he wouldn't have i will admit
31:07i likewise began to view my relationship to fulston and by extension him
31:16through a lens of bitterness i do not wish to hear this resentment grows quickly adam
31:25your father was a good man despite his implacableness
31:31i held out hope for so long
31:34in my foolishly romantic heart
31:38that he would come for me while i was away
31:42he never did did you tell him that that was what you were hoping for
31:50i was so young
31:52only 17 when we married in my naivete
31:57i believed that if he truly cared he would
32:01meet me part way
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
33:00i am here to be your conscience
33:07to save you
33:09from yourself
33:14she will come back
33:18when linus returns to his ship
33:21persephone will return to fulston
33:24and i know you well enough to predict that you will act as though you couldn't care less
33:28whether she is 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
33:53go to shropshek
33:55that isn't how it works
33:57how what 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
34:22hades slipped past the hellhounds and ventured into the realm of the living
34:26to reclaim his bride
34:29i did not remember that
34:33hades was no pamsey fribble adam
34:37and i'd bet a pony his persephone
34:41knew exactly how her husband felt about her
35:24i'm sure you're warm enough
35:26are you sure you're warm enough
35:27warmly 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 out of lying and saying that
35:44you seem to miss the castle
35:50i do
35:52then why do you seem so sad whenever 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 what i will find when i return
36:06you could always just stay here
36:10my heart is there
36:13i hope the castle knows how fortunate he is
36:16it is
36:16i love it
36:16it is
36:39Adam.
36:44How have you come to take me home?
36:47When you're ready.
36:50But I... I wanted to see Shropshire.
36:56To see where you grew up.
36:58You did?
37:03And... and get to know your family?
37:07And I... I...
37:12Hades always went after Persephone.
37:16Yes. He did.
37:22He waited as long as he had to.
37:26And then he left his kingdom and he did not come back until he found her.
37:31I think Hades must have missed his wife.
37:36I think he knew to the very minute how long she'd been gone.
37:41But was Persephone as anxious to return as he was to have her with him again?
37:46Yes. She was.
38:02Why did Hades go after her?
38:08He must have loved her.
38:09No, he did.
38:12He did.
38:13He did more than he could even express.
38:21But...
38:23But did Persephone love him?
38:25In spite of his flaws.
38:28In spite of deserving so much better than he could ever offer.
38:33Oh...
38:33Oh, Adam.
38:34Am I too late?
38:36Is there nothing that I can...
38:38You said you belong at Fauston.
38:42Only at Fauston.
38:44I belong with you.
39:07I do love you, Adam.
39:09I do love you, Adam.
39:20The tall would not believe it even if they heard you say that.
39:25We shall have to convince them.
39:28I may enjoy London, yeah.
39:31Does this mean I can come to your castle?
39:36Our castle is in need of a good exploration.
39:42Perhaps if you have no other plans for Christmas, you could undertake one then.
39:48Athena!
39:49Daphne!
39:51You realize she will bring the rest of the family and Fauston will be overrun with people?
39:57No.
40:01Well...
40:01And there is probably a chance I will be in a foul mood from 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?
40:23Oh, my Persephone.
40:26Do you know that I would have come for you?
40:29No matter how far you had gone.
40:35Hades always came for Persephone.
40:41And she always returned home.
40:47Always.
40:55What's the words?
40:58Why?
41:05The Inputation
41:08What's the words?
41:11Your mind?
41:13What's the words?
41:14Positively, or We'd try to process it?
41:14You know what I love when it was an electric guitar.
41:14I love you I love when it was held on.
41:19I love you.
41:23No matter how you would stand before.
