00:41The call of duty, is it to ourselves or to others?
00:54Each generation debates the dilemma.
01:01Follow the money or follow your heart.
01:14The call of duty, is it to ourselves?
01:44June and I agree, you mustn't reproach yourself.
01:48The children, it's not as if you left them unprovided for.
01:54They'll inherit a considerable sum when they reach their maturity.
01:59They will.
02:02And I understand the struggle.
02:05The power of first love, and when there are consequences...
02:08I've cut ties with her, Frances.
02:12There's nothing more to be said.
02:15And for that, June and I are grateful.
02:19So, may we now turn our attention to the carterettes?
02:26Brace you.
02:29Figaro, he's slower than treacle.
02:45I feel quite neglected.
02:49Two weeks and not even a postcard.
02:53Surely he can't be that busy.
02:55Oh, I don't know.
02:57Well, firstly, I'm enjoying the peace.
03:00So much less drama.
03:04I doubt Joe would agree with you.
03:06Oh, Monty.
03:07Yes!
03:11Once the dust has settled, we need to implement the succession without delay.
03:15Why the urgency?
03:23I waited a long time.
03:25To become chairman.
03:28Nothing prepares you for the loneliness.
03:32The lack of a mentor.
03:34Everyone waiting for you to fail.
03:45So, I want you to take on the mantle now, while I'm still here to guide you.
03:50And since Soames is away, we can use his absence.
03:56To do what?
03:57To assure the doubters that you and not he are the man for the job.
04:09When will you tell them?
04:11I've already written to my father.
04:21I told him Forsyte and Co. should explore new markets.
04:24That I intend to set up an office here in Paris, where I can have complete autonomy.
04:30Won't he applaud that?
04:32No.
04:33He'll want me in London.
04:35Fulfilling his lifelong ambition.
04:36To thwart his brother.
04:38Oh, believe me, I do a better job than my cousin, but I've told him I need a new challenge.
04:43You have me.
04:45Am I not challenge enough?
04:48You are.
04:50Let me see.
04:51What are you?
04:54A wild thing.
04:57A wood nymph.
04:59A goddess.
05:02I saw the sunrise today.
05:05What?
05:07Where?
05:08When?
05:10In the gardens.
05:12You went out alone?
05:15I loved the early morning night.
05:18But, my darling, we're husband and wife now.
05:20We should want to do everything together.
05:24Everything?
05:25Is that not what marriage is about?
05:30Of course.
05:32The next time I'll wake you.
05:34Hmm.
05:39Ah, Forsyte.
05:41Is it true?
05:43Soames missing in action?
05:44Yes.
05:45Miss Honeymoon.
05:46Poor excuse, I grant you.
05:48Can I help?
05:49Hmm.
05:49Salon Gold.
05:50Sir Jimmy Buckland's venture.
05:52Soames told me it's a gold mine.
05:55Literally.
05:56Good.
05:57Count me in.
05:59To the tune of...
06:02Well, it's your choice, of course, Mr. Cully, but...
06:06I'd advise against.
06:08I...
06:09Sir Jim has a dubious safety record.
06:12Prone to accidents and human fatalities.
06:15I really...
06:15And?
06:16If there are a few careless laborers lost down a mine.
06:21Small price to pay for such fabulous returns.
06:23Couldn't agree more.
06:24James Forsyte.
06:25Allow me to expedite your purchase this way.
06:30With me?
07:54Mrs. Farrington.
07:56Anna, what a lovely surprise.
07:58Oh, my dear Louisa.
08:03You don't look a day older.
08:05That's kind of you to say.
08:08How's it been?
08:09A struggle, but so much worse if you hadn't stepped in.
08:12I take no credit.
08:14I gave you a helping hand.
08:16The rest you've done yourself.
08:19Oh.
08:21How...
08:23How...
08:24Inspiring.
08:25Inspiring.
08:26And to that end...
08:30I have a favor to beg.
08:32Of course.
08:33Anything.
08:34I hesitate to ask.
08:36It would involve a risk.
08:38And it concerns...
08:40My forthcoming fundraising event.
09:00June!
09:04Hmm...
09:08Hmm.
09:08Philip of Culver Street?
09:10June Renegade of Hyde Park.
09:34I thought you might not come.
09:35It was very impertinent of you to ask me.
09:37But perhaps you think the rules of polite society don't apply to us.
09:41Perhaps I think they're petty.
09:42Parochial?
09:43Irrational.
09:48Seriously, can men and women not be friends?
09:52Do friends accept gifts?
09:58Cute.
10:03Recite me one.
10:09When old age shall this generation waste,
10:11Thou shalt remain,
10:12In midst of other woe than ours,
10:14A friend to man,
10:16To whom thou sayest...
10:17Beauty is truth.
10:19Truth, beauty.
10:20That is all you know on earth.
10:23And all you need to know.
10:31Where shall we live?
10:34Versailles.
10:36The Tuileries.
10:38The Champs-Elysees.
10:42When I was tiny,
10:44We lived in three rooms above a baker's shop.
10:49And my father bought me a canary.
10:53But my mother said that wild things should never be kept in cages.
10:58So she let it fly away.
11:00No doubt to be eaten by a cat.
11:06Well, three rooms won't do for us.
11:10We shall need to entertain.
11:13Forge connections.
11:14Oh, now you're about to discover my guilty secret.
11:18My mum never taught me how to play the hostess.
11:22That's it.
11:23Our marriage is over.
11:25Oh, my God.
11:27You realise we'll have a housekeeper?
11:30Servant?
11:31And your mother will think me woefully lacking.
11:33I'm sure she already thinks I've led you astray.
11:37Led me astray?
11:41Have you?
11:44My father taught me university was a waste of time and money.
11:49Likewise, Europe.
11:51The grand tour.
11:53So at sixteen,
11:54I was on the floor of the stock exchange.
11:57Learning the ropes.
11:59Oh, don't mistake me.
12:00None of it was wasted.
12:01But
12:03now
12:06is my duty to the company
12:12or to myself.
12:25You haven't led me astray.
12:28You've set me free.
12:48Someone's all of a glow.
12:51Must be the ride.
12:53The wind was bracing.
12:55Suits you.
12:57You should go more often.
12:59Well,
13:00I think I will.
13:19So, the hunt is on.
13:21Yes.
13:22Will it be a chase
13:23or a trap?
13:25Frances will have it all planned.
13:28She learned from the master.
13:29Yes.
13:31Utterly brazen.
13:33Might as well stick her on a plate with an apple in her mouth.
13:36Olivia sends her regrets.
13:39She's visiting the Fitzgeralds.
13:41She and young Anthony have formed an attachment.
13:44Oh, how delightful.
13:45That was quick.
13:47Poor Cyril finds it all so confusing.
13:50Shall we find you a little treat?
13:53Oh, don't you?
13:53There we are.
13:56Have you met Mrs. Parker Barrington?
13:59She's back in London.
14:00I'd be happy to introduce you.
14:02Oh, no.
14:03No need.
14:04I knew her in Geneva when she was first married.
14:07Sweet girl.
14:09Husband and absolute zidic.
14:12She and I hiked the Matterhorn together.
14:22And I understand you have an extensive collection of moths.
14:28Yes.
14:29I've been longing to know.
14:31What distinguishes a moth from a butterfly?
14:34Oh, well, in fact, they do have things in common.
14:37Both belong to Lepidoptera species.
14:40From the Greek, Lepis, meaning scale,
14:42and Terum, meaning wing.
14:44Oh, fascinating.
14:51Well, that could hardly have gone better.
14:55June was transformed.
14:58You did her very proud.
15:02Suspended evening.
15:04Do you really think she's had a change of heart?
15:06It would certainly make things easier.
15:08Yeah.
15:09It would certainly be.
15:10Yeah.
15:32Come on.
15:33Come on.
15:33Come on.
15:34Come on.
15:35Come on.
15:36Come on.
15:37Come on.
15:43Soames, finally, I trust he's announcing his imminent return.
16:21Not coming home. On my heart, I shall faint.
16:24Can it be true?
16:25It must be her doing.
16:27Well, you can't deny she's a bewitching little creature.
16:30What can he be thinking? Setting up on his own in Paris, of all places.
16:34Although, with Soames gone, might a fellow step up?
16:38What fellow?
16:40Someone with expertise on risk, investment.
16:44Gambling, you mean?
16:45And for the mantle of favoured child.
16:47Think about it, Freddie.
16:48With Soames away, you and I are the preeminent pair of our generation.
16:54Nobody is to hear of this. Understood?
16:57Of course.
16:58On my honour.
17:00My heart will break.
17:03How should we live without him?
17:21Prepare yourselves.
17:27Is he serious?
17:29No, he's clever.
17:31If Joe gets the chair, do you see Soames taking orders?
17:34This way, he gets to be master of his own domain.
17:37Good thinking.
17:37No, not good.
17:39Defeatist.
17:40Joe mustn't be allowed to get the chair.
17:42Soames must return and fight his corner.
17:45I need to send a telegram.
17:51Dear Mrs. Forsyte, so good of you to come.
17:54Did I hear there may soon be exciting news about your daughter and young Horatio?
18:01I couldn't possibly comment.
18:05Lady Carteret herself dropped a hint.
18:10She's asked me to donate to her charity for the reclamation of fallen women.
18:16And I wondered whether you might be persuaded to join us.
18:22Of course.
18:23One must support any scheme that takes these wretched creatures off the streets.
18:29Perhaps we can find ways to alleviate their wretchedness.
18:36They're both very hot.
18:38Try to get some sleep, my darlings.
18:40I don't like it.
18:41What Mrs. Barrington wants you to do.
18:43She couldn't have asked me her worst time.
18:45All these foresights buzzing around.
18:47She wasn't to know.
18:48I've never told who the children's father was.
18:51If you do it,
18:54it could ruin you.
19:19An invitation to Frampton Park.
19:22Oh, what's that?
19:25The Carteret family seat.
19:28Oh.
19:29Am I invited?
19:31Oh.
19:32I think we both know you're the main attraction, my love.
19:36Oh.
19:42Oh.
19:43Oh.
19:48Oh.
19:52Oh.
19:55Oh.
19:55Oh.
19:58Oh.
19:59Oh.
20:00Oh.
20:03And here is my chef Marie, my friends from the Côte des Balais, Yves Colette Patrice-Victor.

20:30So, Champagne.
20:31Are you ready guys?
20:32We celebrate, right?
20:34But no.
20:36We must absolutely try.
20:37Our home speciality is the absinthe.
20:43Come on, let's go.
20:47Come on, let's go together.
20:57Hey!
21:05Champagne!
21:10Oh my god!
21:14It's so big.
21:15It's pretty good!
21:17It's just amazing!
21:23how could i be so stupid i thought if i appeared compliant then mama would be more sympathetic
21:33would take my wishes into account but but now that's phantom park yes
21:40that can only mean one thing
21:44he intends to propose
21:57i suppose we'll never meet again you wish you could be otherwise
22:05perhaps you should marry me
22:09i think i'd prefer it
22:16no i really would prefer it
22:20jim let's be serious how on earth would we live i'd have my settlement there'll be no settlement
22:25if your father refuses his consent and believe me he will then we'll run away and live on what
22:30i have debts no reputation i'm yet to secure meaningful commission sometimes i live on coco
22:36but none of this matters if we love each other
22:42i i shouldn't have said that
22:46he did
22:58and so
23:00and so
23:03and so
23:14and so
23:37and so
23:41if i can join them at the start of the new season
23:50one can have too much of a good thing
24:06so
24:11do you intend
24:13do you intend to make a habit of advising clients against surefire investment
24:19what's this
24:20salon gold
24:21as predicted
24:23colossal profits
24:24but it seems joe is unable to conquer his
24:27squeamishness
24:28i doubt i will
24:29you should ask darty
24:30sure he's made of sterner stuff
24:32did i hear my name
24:34sir jimmy buckland's gold mine
24:36shares currently showing a 40 percent uplift
24:40oh i like the sound of that
24:48the purpose of this firm
24:50is solely to make a profit for its clients
24:53but if the heir apparent shows queasiness at its methods
24:58is he really
25:01acting in our best interest
25:10it appears horatio carteret
25:13is partial to june
25:17well
25:19think of that
25:20when we go to frampton park
25:22i believe he will ask for her hand
25:26and he's the heir
25:28which eventually means of course
25:30that june herself will be lady carteret
25:32just what those high mighties need
25:34bit of spark and personality
25:39feather in your cap my dear
25:41and to you too june
25:42of course
25:44assuming her father consents
25:47why wouldn't he
25:49can you think of a reason
25:52unless june can
25:57my love
26:02sorry
26:03it was miles away
26:04what was the question
26:07is there any reason i shouldn't consent
26:09to you marrying horatio carteret
26:13yes
26:13i believe there is
26:15on account of the fact that i'm already engaged
26:22his name's philip bussini
26:23he's an architect
26:25one of the new school and very bright
26:28he lives on culver street
26:30it's also his office
26:32he's still awaiting his first commission
26:34but he's so talented
26:36he's sure to be in great demand once the one
26:38that's enough
26:40no one finds this remotely amusing
26:42i don't know
26:45i met him at the opera
26:47he's a modernist
26:49and utterly rejects outmoded traditions
26:51such as
26:52asking your father for his daughter's hand
26:53before he proposes
26:55well actually
26:58i proposed
26:59well of course you did
27:02am i to understand
27:04there's actually some truth
27:05to this ridiculous
27:09june

27:13following my heart
27:16oh dear
27:17but how did
27:20where could you tell her

27:36why would i
27:37oh we know she likes to confide in you
27:40oh
27:42perhaps she thought i'd disapprove
27:44which obviously you do
27:52you don't understand
27:53it's not like
27:55anyone i've ever known
27:56he cares
27:57about things that matter
27:59about right and wrong
28:00he doesn't want to control me
28:02he wants me to be just
28:03who i am
28:04and that's unlike anyone you've ever known
28:05yes
28:14so i should meet him
28:38so i should meet him

29:12then go home
29:12oh
29:12and see...
29:13uh...
29:15good
29:16uh
29:16um
29:17and
30:00What is it?
30:04Why are you looking at me like that?
30:08May a man not look upon his most treasured possession.
30:13Am I really such a thing?
30:15And more.
30:41How could I have done this?
30:45I failed to communicate the foresight imperative.
30:50Seize the crown, lead, instead of playing second fiddle.
30:59What's been the point of my life if not to set my son on the chair?
31:03Is that what you put in your telegram?
31:06Obviously not.
31:09I told him if he didn't take the next train home from Paris, I'd come and drag him home by
31:12his earload.
31:14Oh, well, that'll do it.
31:25This way, sir.
31:32Mr. Bassini.
31:37Please.
31:46Ladies, you've done me the honor of inviting me to join your campaign.
31:53And while I suspect that the scale of my donation may have influenced your choice,
31:59please, I hope I may have something more than guineas to offer.
32:16No doubt you think we're presumptuous, daring to aspire to the hand of an heiress.
32:22As you can see, my cuff's afraid, my coat is worn, and to demonstrate the gulf between us,
32:27you invite me to a place whose membership is four times my annual salary.
32:32Actually, I chose it because it's around the corner from your office.
32:39Tell me about yourself.
32:47I'm a radical.
32:50I've declined bow to convention.
32:55My family's undistinguished.
32:57My studies have left me in debt.
32:58So if you've come here to tell me that I must look elsewhere, I can't...
33:01I've come here to ask why you love my daughter.
33:10I've never met anyone like her.
33:13We see the world in the same way.
33:17She's spirited and brave.
33:20And, yes, I love her.
33:22And if you don't believe me, then...
33:24Oh, what if I do believe you?
33:27You've supported this cause long before I arrived.
33:31The hostels you fund for the women you save.
33:34The clergy you pay to instruct them in the error of their ways.
33:39The homes you find amongst the childless gentry for their wretched offspring.
33:44No one can doubt the rigor of your purpose.
33:48But what is the ultimate aim of your charity?
33:51Punishment?
33:52Moral superiority?
33:54Or material assistance?
33:57Let me introduce to you a lady whose history you may find instructive.
34:10Some of you know me.
34:11You honour me with your custom.
34:15I'm kind enough to invite me into your homes.
34:18Ten years ago, I was penniless.
34:20Homeless.
34:22Mrs. Parker Barrington heard of my distress.
34:26She could have judged me.
34:28Made a reckoning of my failings.
34:30But instead, she asked me how she could help.
34:33She found me lodgings.
34:34A midwife.
34:36Sustenance.
34:37She asked me what skills I possessed and employed me as a dressmaker.
34:40Recommended me to her friends.
34:42Many of you have helped to make me what I am today.
34:46Not a burden on society.
34:49But a contributor.
34:52Heartwarming story.
34:54But there's a vast difference between you and the women that we try to help.
34:59You are not what we call fallen.
35:02And if I was, would I deserve the workhouse?
35:05My children removed.
35:06Myself consigned to penitence and shame.
35:09Widowhood and poverty are not sins.
35:20I wasn't a widow.
35:24My children were born out of wedlock.
35:28Their father...
35:39Died.
35:41Before they were born.
35:47Now do you judge me?
35:50Do I appear less deserving to you now?
35:54Not to me.
35:57And not, I hope, to any here.
36:04Thank you so much.
36:44Forgive me.
36:46I must go.
36:54You don't strike me as a fortune hunter.
37:00How would you support her?
37:03I will.
37:05That is, at present.
37:07I can't.
37:09But I have prospects.
37:10I'm currently seeking a major commission.
37:12But is money the be-all and end-all?
37:15It is for those who are used to it.
37:20I can't agree to this marriage.
37:25Until you've completed your first commission.
37:30Till then I consent to an engagement.
37:35I have no doubt.
37:37We'll be seeing a lot of each other.
38:02I'm here, my diamonds.
38:03I'm here now.
38:06I'm here.
38:08I'm here now.
38:10You agreed to an engagement.
38:13Why?
38:16He's impulsive, argumentative, and currently without means.
38:21It could be years before he makes his first commission.
38:23Exactly.
38:23And by then, the romance would have lost his sheen.
38:27Or stood the test of time.
38:29And you're willing to take that chance?
38:34What is this?
38:37You living vicariously?
38:40Allowing June to do what you always regretted not doing?
38:45Not in the slightest.
38:49I'm holding at peace with my decision.
39:01I knew it.
39:02You were never going to consent because you've no idea how it feels to truly follow your heart.
39:08So go on, tell me.
39:20Will you give you permission to get engaged?
39:24Shoot.
39:31And now we assure the outside world that we couldn't be happier.
39:46Is there a pact to lower the tone of this family?
39:51First Soames, now June.
39:54There's no one regard for pedigree.
39:57You'll note the lack of announcement.
39:59June's engagement?
40:01No surprise.
40:03I wouldn't advertise such a mismatch.
40:06No wonder the engagement party is close family only.
40:10Poor Frances had such high hopes.
40:13She must be so disappointed.
40:21Did I ever tell you that when I was five, I fell into the Seine?
40:25Where were your parents?
40:27Beside me.
40:28But I could swim, so my mother was happy for me to take risks.
40:31She was a gambler?
40:32Mm-hmm.
40:33Like you?
40:34With other people's money?
40:35I take calculated risks.
40:39Like chance in your happiness with someone you barely know.
40:44Come with me.
40:46I have a surprise.
40:51Isaac mentioned June's engagement.
40:54Oh, we couldn't be more delighted.
40:56Of course, June could have had her pick, but we believe that young people should follow their hearts.
41:01Oh, I wholly agree.
41:03I want to thank you for joining us the other day.
41:07I hope you were persuaded of the cause.
41:11Dear Louisa, she's such a shining example of what can be achieved.
41:16Yes.
41:17Yes.
41:18Very commendable.
41:20Still, it's a struggle with two little ones to take care of.
41:24And when they both go down with a fever...
41:27Well, I'm so sorry.
41:28I have to dash.
41:29I'm expected at the Devonshires for luncheon.
41:43Are they very sick?
41:46Scarlet fever.
41:48Apparently.
41:50Poor darlings.

44:46And when we're settled in our new apartment, should we invite your family to come visit?
44:52Yes. Yes, of course.
44:55My love, there's something I haven't mentioned.
45:02Telegram from my father.
45:04Is he well?
45:05Beside himself.
45:07That I told him my plans in a letter when I should have done it face to face.
45:11What was I thinking?
45:14I believe I must return.
45:18Cut short our honeymoon.
45:21And my audition, should I rearrange?
45:23By all means.
45:24But you must see I owe my father an explanation.
45:28In person.
45:33Of course.
45:34Of course.
45:35Of course, I do see that.
45:38So let's return to London and settle things.
45:43Once and for all.
45:55Very often.
45:58Very often.
46:12How do we know that this fellow isn't some money-grubbing opportunist?
46:19What's Frances thinking?
46:21She will know that when the heart is set on something,
46:25the more it's forbidden, the more it's craved.
46:30Surely you don't imagine June wants this boy just to prove she can have it.
46:37I once knew a couple of young men who pursued the same girl simply so the other wouldn't get her.
46:47Let me fetch you a drink.
47:04Something amiss?
47:06What?
47:08Nothing to concern you.
47:13No one would believe we used to be best of friends.
47:16It was a long time ago.
47:19Before the old man pitted us against each other.
47:21Ha!
47:23Yes.
47:24Shape up.
47:25Make sacrifices.
47:27Was it a sacrifice?
47:30For you?
47:33Alexandra?
47:39No more than it was for you.
47:42Do you sometimes wonder where she disappeared to?
47:46As do I.
47:50Still, it all turned out for the best.
47:54Emily and you?
47:56Edith and I?
47:58Yes.
48:00Splendid women.
48:04Saved us from ourselves.
48:12I almost feel sorry for him.
48:15Don't.
48:17Did you see his hat?
48:18He left it on a chair and Emily must have stuck it for a cat.
48:25Uncle James, you look as if you'd like to commission a new house and here's Phil just brimming with clever
48:32ideas.
48:32I suspect your uncle's perfectly content with his own house.
48:35But should the opportunity ever arise, I'm sure you could come to my office and view my portfolio.
48:40There, now, what a kind invitation.
48:46Well, here we are.
48:47Frances and I ask you to join us in raising a glass to the newly engaged couple.
48:53June and Philip.
48:55June and Philip.
49:03How to thwart a rebel.
49:05Take away their cause.
49:17Let's go.
49:18I will give you my second one.
49:20Yes.
49:20Good.
49:21Sc前.
49:22Good.
49:24Come here.
49:24I will give you a second, you're so nice.
49:26Good.
49:30Good.
49:31Yes.
49:36Oh.
50:30Are they?
50:36Please tell me they're not.
50:38They're not.
50:40Their fever's passed.
50:41They're sleeping.
50:45Thank God.
50:51They're not.
50:58They're not.
50:59They're not.
51:16They're not.
