00:23Three times I had written to Mr. Hayward, and each time the letter was returned, marked
00:29forwarding address unknown.
00:32There was so much that I wished to say to him, but it was not to be.
00:41No matter, I would not wallow.
00:43I had navigated difficulty before, and I would use my experiences to find my place in London,
00:49and prove I could build a life here.
00:52Not only to myself, but also to...
00:57Mama.
00:58Here she is.
01:00I didn't know you were...
01:02Sorry, what are you doing here?
01:04Your mother has come to stay.
01:06For a short time.
01:08Lizzie's physician advised I come to London to see Dr. Simmons, who is a great authority on nervous complaints.
01:16Well, sit.
01:21Mr. Darcy has been most insistent, urging me to think of myself and not hurry back to Pemberley.
01:28Until I have been properly attended to.
01:33Now, Mary, I have decided to forgive your actions at Pemberley, and to offer you my assistance one last time.
01:40While I am here, I intend to finish what I began, and find suitable matches for all my daughters.
01:50Oh, please, Mama, really.
01:52Four out of five must be considered a great triumph.
01:56A great triumph, indeed.
01:57Mary has plenty in London to occupy her time.
02:00There is no better use of Mary's time than finding a match.
02:04Oh, please, Mother, really.
02:06I'm very happy, as I am.
02:08I understand your shame, Mary, in the way that you have behaved towards me.
02:13But nevertheless, you cannot override my natural kindness and my motherly instinct.
02:20I have arranged for you to meet several suitors.
02:47Is it too much to ask you to make even the slightest effort with just one of these gentlemen?
02:52Mary has made good connections.
02:54Oh, and do good connections provide for you for the rest of your life?
02:58And she is welcome here.
02:59Oh, yes, for now.
03:01For as long as she wants.
03:02Enter!
03:07A visitor for Miss Bennet.
03:10Mr. Ryder is here.
03:12Mr. Ryder?
03:14Well, show him in.
03:17Please show him in.
03:30Mr. Ryder, how wonderful to see you.
03:34Mrs. Bennet.
03:35Mrs. Gardiner.
03:37Miss Bennet.
03:40And to what do we owe the pleasure of your visit?
03:42Yes, excuse me, dropping in unannounced.
03:45I wondered whether I might speak with Miss Bennet.
03:51Of course.
03:54In private.
04:00Miss Bennet, I'm most relieved to see you looking so well after.
04:06Yeah, yeah.
04:08I was sorry not to be able to say goodbye to you at the Lakes.
04:12Once I knew you were being taken care of, I felt it my duty to accompany Miss Bingley back to
04:16London to see a physician.
04:18I understand.
04:19But I was kept informed of your recovery.
04:29Miss Bennet, I...
04:32I wanted to sincerely apologise for what happened.
04:37Oh, I played my own part in proceedings.
04:40No, no.
04:40I was entirely to blame.
04:43I put you and Miss Bingley in grave danger.
04:46I'm full of regret.
04:47Oh, really?
04:48No more of it.
04:51Though it did not end well.
04:53Overall, I look back at my time in the Lakes very fondly.
04:58It was never my intention to intrude on your time there, but I needed Mr. Hayward's help.
05:07You see, Lady Catherine de Burr unexpectedly named me as her heir.
05:15Oh.
05:19I informed Mr. Hayward of my change in fortune and told him of my intention to propose to you that
05:27very afternoon.
05:32I see.
05:34He knew what I could offer you and he gave me his blessing.
05:43He did?
05:45Miss Bennet, I wanted to renew our conversation from the Lakes.
05:53Of course.
05:54Of course, Mr. Ryder.
05:57Please, um, please sit.
05:59Uh.
06:01Uh.
06:03Uh.
06:03Uh.
06:05Uh.
06:09Uh.
06:15I've never met anyone that makes me think like you do.
06:20Who makes me see the world as you do.
06:25I've certainly never met anyone who speaks as plainly as you.
06:28And I admire that greatly.
06:31It's very kind.
06:34Although there is something of a gulf between my ideals and the world we live in.
06:43I like to think that you and I could carve out an interesting existence.
06:51Together.
06:55I shall now do what I should have done weeks ago and ask.
07:00I'll ask.
07:05Miss Bennet.
07:12Would you consider...
07:15accepting my hand in marriage?
07:29Mr. Ryder,
07:32my answer must of course be
07:41that I do not love you.
07:50Could it be that you might grow to love me?
07:58Not in the way that you deserve to be loved.
08:07Your friendship has taught me so much about myself
08:12and for that I shall always be grateful.
08:17But I don't believe I would ever have made you happy.
08:26You should follow your heart.
08:28Go to Italy and seize everything it has to offer.
08:35I see.
08:39You will find happiness, Mr. Ryder.
08:42True happiness.
08:45I do not doubt it.
08:56No.
09:00It was a pleasure to see you looking so well.
09:09Dry.
09:17Goodbye, Miss Bennett.
09:23Why?
09:31No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
09:33Mother.
09:35I should leave.
09:36Please.
09:37Stay there.
09:38Mother.
09:40Mr. Ryder, you may go.
09:49What have you done?
09:51Oh, I need some air.
09:54Mary.
09:57Mary!
10:03Mary!
10:20Miss Bennett.
10:24Mr. Sparrow!
10:30Is everything quite all right?
10:32No, yes.
10:33The city smoke is particularly heavy today.
10:35It just seems to have...
10:39May I?
10:40...
11:03I hope they are still serving you well.
11:07They really are.
11:09Tell me, what brings you to London?
11:12I graduated from Moorfields two weeks ago.
11:16You're a doctor.
11:18Just as you said you would be.
11:22Congratulations, Mr. Sparrow.
11:26I always thought you'd end up studying somewhere.
11:28Somehow.
11:29I would like to be a governess.
11:32To an older girl, perhaps.
11:35I think I'd enjoy teaching petrology and geology and...
11:38Your specialisms.
11:39Perhaps one day you could tutor my daughter.
11:42You have a child.
11:44She is one.
11:48Then perhaps I will, I guess.
11:51No, I've not really looked too far into it as yet.
11:56I think my mother will not approve.
12:03If I remember rightly, you and your mother always had very different ideas about life.
12:09About reading.
12:10About the wearing of spectacles.
12:14And about...
12:16Potential matters.
12:22If I may be so bold.
12:24If you have always struggled to please your mother,
12:27why do you keep trying?
12:31As long as you know what you want,
12:33perhaps it is time to stop worrying what she thinks.
12:40Our happiness is in our own hands.
12:43Absolutely.
12:45I truly believe it is.
12:49It has been a pleasure to see you again.
12:52I must be getting back.
12:59Goodbye, Mr. Sparrow.
13:01I'm very, very glad to have run into you today.
13:26Mary.
13:28What on earth are you thinking?
13:30Mother, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
13:33Again.
13:34But I will not be marrying Mr. Ryder.
13:37Nonsense.
13:38Call him back and tell him you were mistaken.
13:40No, I will not do that.
13:42Have you no consideration for my nerves?
13:46I've never wanted to cause you any trouble.
13:49You have caused me nothing but trouble since the day you were born.
13:53Yes.
13:54I am aware that is so.
13:57I am trying to help you.
14:00I do not want you to be looked down upon.
14:06Looked down upon by whom?
14:14Mary, please, call Mr. Ryder back and accept his offer.
14:19I do not love him.
14:20Mama, I've not waited all this time just to marry a man I do not love.
14:25You would have once agreed to marry Mr. Collins.
14:28Did you love him?
14:29No, I didn't. No.
14:32At the time, I thought I was helping our family remain at Longmore.
14:35And now there is a handsome, wealthy man willing to overlook your shortcomings and you have turned him away.
14:41Because I have changed.
14:43Well, change back again.
14:49Charlotte once told me that my options were marriage or misery.
14:56But I have seen many miserable marriages.
15:02And meanwhile, I've experienced much joy in life.
15:07On my own.
15:08What will you do without a husband?
15:11How will you survive?
15:12I will work as a governess.
15:15Outside the families?
15:16I will take on an older pupil.
15:18And I will teach a more nuanced, detailed education.
15:21Working to a higher level on a specific setting.
15:24Why do you insist on torturing me?
15:35It has always been my intention to please you.
15:40I am very sad that I have never been able to make you proud of me.
15:47Yet I was never able to match my sisters in your esteem.
15:54I am sorry.
15:57You have no idea what it has been like for me.
16:01I had five daughters. Five daughters.
16:05All of whom I knew must marry well in order to survive.
16:09And there was nobody to make that happen except me.
16:14Your father never had to think about it.
16:18And he never raised a finger to help.
16:22In fact, any attempts I made to discuss your futures seemed only to rile him.
16:32I was quite alone.
16:38You and I always have been very different creatures.
16:44Yes.
16:46And it is likely we all shall be.
16:51It doesn't seem fair that you weren't helped in your efforts.
16:57But...
16:59You did it.
17:03We are all settled in our different ways.
17:06I have chosen my path.
17:09And...
17:11I am happy with it.
17:16I did not want you to be left behind.
17:30Goodbye, Mother.
17:33Goodbye, Mother.
17:52Jane.
17:53Send our love to Lizzie.
17:58Goodbye, Jane.
18:19Mary.
18:19Mary, I have to say, I don't think I've ever seen anyone stand up to your mother as successfully as
18:24you did.
18:25Really?
18:25It was very impressive.
18:32I don't mind that I'll never marry.
18:38I'm only sad that, um, without a home of my own, I'll...
18:42I shall never get to choose my own wallpaper.
18:46You can always choose some for your room, Mary, if you like.
18:52Do you think I've done the wrong thing?
18:56In not marrying Mr. Ryder?
18:59Not at all, Mary.
19:02I've learnt a great deal from him.
19:05He's a man that finds joy in life, and there's much to be admired about him.
19:10But you do not love him.
19:11Hmm.
19:13No.
19:17You love someone else?
19:25Where has he gone?
19:30I wish I knew.
19:44Miss Bennett, there is a visitor to see you in the drawing room.
19:50Miss Bingley.
20:01Miss Bingley.
20:04I wanted to thank you for what you did on the mountain.
20:13Miss Bennet, I wanted to thank you for what you did on the mountain.
20:22you could have left me there.
20:24You could have left me there.
20:25And...
20:26you didn't.
20:35i think it is plain to see that i have a great fondness for mr rider
20:45and i have come to ask that you
20:49leave him alone oh miss bingley you are much better suited to mr rider than i am
20:56you don't mean that i do i do mr rider is a is he's a dear friend but he and
21:03i we were never a match
21:10the truth is
21:16it was always mr haywood for me but it is not to be really tom haywood
21:24surely he is attainable it seems not he has disappeared
21:35well well
21:48perhaps i shall call for you sometime miss bennett yes we could we could read poetry together
22:00goodbye miss bennett goodbye miss bingley
22:22and so it was that i carved out my own path
22:27i stayed in london and became a governess
22:34over time i worried a little less about the approval of others
22:40and though the life i had chosen was different to that of my sisters
22:45i had a wealth of experience to be proud of
22:50i had found a family i loved very much
22:53i was happy in the life i had chosen
22:57and i knew that i was good enough
23:04though one can always be just a little happier i suppose
23:14miss bennett
23:15miss bennett
23:19miss bennett
23:28mr haywood
23:29mr haywood
23:30mr haywood

23:58where have you been
24:02yorkshire
24:05what do you mean yorkshire
24:06you can't just say yorkshire
24:09as if yorkshire's an entirely reasonable explanation for your very sudden and somewhat lengthy disappearance
24:16after what you said
24:17but i'm sorry mary please please let me explain
24:22well you're here now
24:25mr haywood
24:26do you go on
24:33where we were in the lakes
24:35the legal matter that mr rider asked me to attend to was his inheriting the fortune of lady catherine de
24:42birth
24:44and i knew quite clearly from rider's incredibly irritating behaviour
24:49that he had a liking for you
24:51as i also had
24:56as i also have
24:59it is such a liking
25:01it is such a liking
25:01in fact
25:02that when i learned of mr rider's good fortune and his plan to make you an offer of marriage
25:06i thought
25:07i thought it in your best interest that i graciously step aside
25:10nevertheless
25:10my actions
25:12in the mountain
25:12you thought it in my best interests
25:15to graciously step aside
25:17so your disappearance
25:20was in fact
25:21you being gracious
25:23to me
25:24you
25:25ah
25:26ah
25:27ah
25:27miss
25:27you and mr rider between you thought that you would just decide on my fate
25:31and i would just accept it
25:32like i'm a
25:34like i'm a
25:34a grateful cat
25:36if you put it like that
25:37it does not sound good
25:38i don't
25:38why didn't you just ask me
25:40what i thought
25:40i was reading between the lines
25:42there were no lines
25:43mr hayward
25:44there were no lines
25:46i know i will never be able to offer you what mr rider can
25:51i have had to work for everything that i have
25:53and
25:55and i thought you deserved better than that
25:59that you deserved better than me but now i realise
26:03i will not know what you want unless i ask
26:05so i must tell you i cannot offer you great wealth
26:08or italy
26:11but i can offer you my love
26:14and my devotion
26:15and my hope to build a family
26:17one day
26:23mr hayward
26:25if you had asked me what i wanted i would have told you i never wanted mr rider
26:31i have never loved mr rider
26:34i
26:34i love you
26:36i have only
26:37ever
26:38loved you
26:39i love you
26:41i have always loved you
26:43from the very first time i caught you playing graces on your own
26:46when you thought no one was at home
26:51i have spent my life on the outside of things but with you i am right in the middle of
26:56it all
27:07mary bennett would you do me the very great honor of becoming my wife
27:17yes
27:18yes
27:20yes
27:22yes
27:22yes
27:23yes
27:29That was a yes right away, Mr. Amen, kiss.
27:32In case we didn't catch it.
27:34Mary, I think now that we've kissed, you could probably call me Tom.
27:38Stop.
27:54Wait, what made you come back?
27:56Oh, I received a letter.
27:59From Caroline Bingley.
28:01What?
28:02Yes.
28:03She wrote to me and she told me about your conversation and I realised I was being ridiculous.
28:07From Caroline Bingley?
28:09Yes.
28:09She did something kind.
28:11Wait, however did she find you?
28:13She has a ways.
28:18My only wish is that we could thank her, but she has left London.
28:22Oh.
28:22She's gone to Italy in pursuit of Mr. Ryder.
28:27Now?
28:28Yes.
28:30No.
28:31No.
28:34I know.
28:48And so it was that I married him, but on my own terms, in my own time.
28:57And I hope you'll realise that is almost beside the point.
29:12The point, perhaps, was just as Hill had predicted, all that time ago.
29:18That I needed to get out and see the world outside my family.
29:23So that I could find my place in it.
29:38And that is the last of them.
29:41Really?
29:42No.
29:46Oh.
29:47The Indigo is splendid.
29:49It's actually Tyrion purple.
29:50It's Tyrion?
29:51Yes, from the Greek myth about Hercules' dog, trying a spiny murex sea snail.
29:55I didn't know Hercules had a dog.
29:58Keep up, Thomas.
30:01I am trying.
30:08What's next?
30:10Spring green.
30:11The Indigo.
30:12Will you draw in them?
30:14Oh.
