04:32¿Por qué deberían no te gustan?
04:34Tú eres una persona perfecta que me gustan.
04:39No tengo nada preparado para enseñarles.
04:42Mary, nadie sabe más cosas sobre nada que tú.
04:48Es hora de salir y ver el mundo.
04:52Conozco otras personas que vivan en el mundo.
04:55Creo que te hará lo mejor.
04:57No te preocupes, Miss Mary.
04:59No, no. No.
05:01No, no. I'm just...
05:30No.
05:32No.
05:43No.
06:00¡Gracias!
06:16¡Gracias!
06:35¡Gracias!
06:36¡Gracias!
06:36¡Gracias!
06:36¡Gracias!
06:37¡Mari! ¡Welcome!
06:37¡Mari, you must be hungry after your journey!
06:38¿Would you like some toasted cheese?
06:40But first, we'll show you your room.
06:41Come in, come in!
06:44It's right at the top of the house,
06:46so you won't be disturbed by the children.
07:08How's your mother?
07:10She's had a most trying time of late.
07:12Well, you all have.
07:15Mother as well.
07:16Thank you for inquiring.
07:19And how are you, Mary?
07:22It must have been a terrible shock.
07:28It was.
07:30Well, thank you for stepping in at such short notice.
07:33We don't stand on ceremony here, especially with the children,
07:36so if you don't mind that, you'll do well with us.
07:40And the rest of your belongings will be brought up any moment.
07:43Do you have all you need?
07:45I do, thank you.
08:00Which mountain range is found at the end of your armies?
08:05Oh, hi!
08:06The Andes.
08:19Oh, that's good.
08:22Not so good.
08:24Mary, won't you join us for breakfast?
08:26Oh, no, no, no, sir, thank you, sir.
08:28I'm not at all hungry this morning.
08:30I shall see the children upstairs.
08:44Marianne, would you like to start?
08:48Miss Bennet, it's a pleasure to meet you.
08:50I am Marianne Gardner, and I'm 11 years old.
08:54It's my pleasure to meet you too, Miss Marianne.
08:59George!
09:02Yes, thank you, George.
09:05And this is...
09:10This is Rebecca.
09:12Thank you, Miss Rebecca.
09:15And if an organised body is not, in the situation and circumstances, best adapted to its sustenance and propagation,
09:26then, in conceiving an indefinite variety among the individuals of that species, we must be assured that, on the one
09:37hand, those which depart most from the best adapted constitution will be the most liable to perish.
09:47You've made him go to sleep.
09:55Let us move on to history, shall we?
09:58Now, in 1492, Christopher Columbus discovered America.
10:04Now, where is America?
10:06Ah, yes, America.
10:09Uh...
10:13Where has Rebecca gone?
10:15There were very clearly three of you in this room when I began looking at the globe,
10:19and now there are two of you.
10:21She vanished.
10:22She's a magician.
10:24Well, magic is nothing but illusion and trickery.
10:26Oh.
10:27Now, where could she be?
10:30Oh!
10:31Tom!
10:31You're here!
10:31Tom!
10:32Can we finish lessons now?
10:34Yes.
10:35Oh, forgive the intrusion.
10:36I, er, came to tell you that dinner is served, and...
10:39You must be...
10:41Miss Bennet.
10:42I...
10:42I must be.
10:44Oh, yes, I...
10:45I am.
10:46Er...
10:46Tom Hayward.
10:47Oh.
10:49Friend of the family.
10:55Aren't there normally three of you?
10:57There were three, certainly.
10:59But...
11:00I was looking at...
11:02America.
11:03And when I looked back, it was...
11:11Do you have mice, Miss Bennet?
11:13For if you do, might I suggest you do not keep them in the toy trunk?
11:20Well, I...
11:21I wasn't sure.
11:22I thought perhaps mice like toy trunks.
11:25No, you see, in there, they cannot get to their cheese.
11:29Actually, it's a fallacy.
11:30They're mice like cheese.
11:33Of course.
11:34They're much more partial to root vegetables and grains.
11:38Yes.
11:38Indeed.
11:39I'm a rabbit.
11:43I'm a rabbit.
11:44Mr...
11:45Hayward?
11:47Mr Hayward.
11:48I am keeping a rabbit in the toy trunk because...
11:54I...
11:56Because rabbits are not at all social creatures.
11:59Exactly.
12:00Yes, they are.
12:05Well, why exactly do you have a new governess?
12:09Is it that you keep eating, though?
12:17Tom helped Edward with the legal matters some years ago
12:20and we've been friends ever since.
12:22You're another of our former lodgers.
12:24Oh.
12:25Yes.
12:25Oh.
12:27What is a revolutionary Republican?
12:34Well, as discussed during the lesson,
12:37they're often associated with Jacobinism.
12:40But my point really was...
12:41Sounds like you had a very interesting first day, Miss Bennet.
12:45Well, uh...
12:46Have you read Catherine Macaulay, Miss Bennet?
12:49Yes, I have.
12:51Yes.
12:52Mary told us about smallpox.
12:54And I shall never sleep again.
12:56Well, I...
12:57You asked me to be truthful.
12:59What's a deadly rash?
13:01She said it can leave one blind or dead.
13:04That is not quite how I put it.
13:06Blind or dead, she said.
13:07Well, that is true.
13:08There's a mortality rate of about...
13:10Thirty percent.
13:14Exactly.
13:15George cried three times.
13:19There was something in my eye.
13:20We held hands until Mary had finished talking.
13:24Well, you're never too young to learn about life.
13:28I think our game is in order, don't you?
13:30I think that's a very good idea.
13:32Yes!
13:33Yes!
13:33I'm first!
13:35But what should we play?
13:36Graces!
13:37Ah.
13:38Let's show Mary how to play graces.
13:40Yes!
13:42Mary-Anne.
13:43Well called, Mary-Anne.
13:45Well done.
13:46Bravo!
13:47You're Zaretha.
13:48Oh!
13:51That counts!
13:53It does indeed.
13:53Well does.
13:54It does indeed.
13:55Oh!
13:57You'll need to get someone to look at that.
13:59Send it to Blythe, she'll fix it for you.
14:02Ready?
14:03Yes!
14:05Yes!
14:05Yes!
14:06Well done.
14:07Flare play.
14:08You look like a wizard.
14:10Yes.
14:17Are you sure you won't join in, Mary?
14:19Oh, er, no.
14:21I'm not good at games.
14:22Oh, that doesn't matter at all.
14:25Yes.
14:27Well, you couldn't possibly be as ungainly as I am.
14:30Really, I'd only spoil it.
14:38George.
14:40George.
14:40Ready?
14:41Oh!
14:43Oh!
14:47Thank you.
14:49Yes, Dom.
14:50Mr. Gardner.
14:52Oh!
14:53Ah!
15:11Yes?
15:13Mary?
15:16Oh, do not look so grave, my dear.
15:18You're not in trouble.
15:20With the weather getting warmer, we're about to become more sociable.
15:24Oh!
15:24Oh, please.
15:25Do not feel any obligation to involve me.
15:26I shall be quite content to stay upstairs with the children.
15:29Mary, we want you to join us.
15:33But I do not sparkle at dinners.
15:37In our house, no one is obliged to sparkle.
15:42Then...
15:43Of course.
15:45But we need to get you properly dressed.
15:47Oh.
15:48I thought perhaps tomorrow we could go to the haberdashers and you could pick out some fabrics.
15:52I do not really care for dresses.
15:54Well, that's a shame, but very well.
15:59Perhaps think about it, Mary.
16:01There is a dress allowance as part of your governess' wages.
16:05I have thought about it.
16:07And I would very much like to accept your kind offer.
16:10That's excellent news.
16:14Well, good night, Mary.
16:16And thank you for today.
16:26This must be such a change for marriage.
16:29It most certainly is.
16:31Thank you.
16:41What do you think of the deep greens?
16:44We have a soiree coming up.
16:46Now, I think deep green would be perfect.
16:50Mother has always said it's terribly difficult to get any colour to work with my complexion.
16:54Really?
16:55Well, perhaps your complexions change because I can see many colours here which would work well on you.
17:00But the most important thing being is that you choose fabrics that you truly like.
17:07But Mother says that Mother isn't here.
17:13Mr Gardner?
17:14Oh.
17:15Miss Bennet?
17:16Tom!
17:18Mr Hayward, have you brought your jacket to be mended?
17:21I have just this minute dropped it off.
17:22Well, now that you're here, you can make yourself useful.
17:26Miss Bennet needs to choose some dress fabric.
17:29I find myself quite overwhelmed by the choice.
17:32Well, I shall be honest and say that my experience of picking dress fabric is limited.
17:36To say the least.
17:38But I shall try.
17:41Have you seen the names of these colours?
17:44We've got Dust of Ruins, Corbeau, Flamme de Bonche, anyone?
17:52I think I shall take the Drake's Neck with a splash of Nunkey.
17:56Anyone for Gabouche?
17:58Well, I mean, that's just yellow, that one.
18:01Yes.
18:02Yes.
18:04I think my advice would be to choose the colours that make one feel most like oneself.
18:10And I am sorry not to be of more use.
18:13I should return to my desk and a particularly unexciting land negotiation.
18:19Good day.
18:21Good day.
18:26Oh, poor Tom.
18:28He worked so hard.
18:29Really?
18:30Underneath that light-hearted manner, carries the weight of the world on his shoulders.
18:37Now, have you decided?
18:41I have chosen.
18:43Very well, Mary.
18:47The first is this crimson, and then I thought perhaps a spring green trim.
18:54Lovely.
18:55Yes.
18:56But you will need two dresses.
18:57So, perhaps...
19:00China blue?
19:03Hmm.
19:06Do you think a dress in the spring green alone would be garish?
19:10What do you think, Mary?
19:14Some people may think it is wild.
19:17But...
19:18I like it.
19:20Then I think you should please yourself and not worry what others may think.
19:24Thank you.
19:25You've done a very good job.
19:27Now.
19:28I knew you were supposed to be well.
19:32Even if it was going to be good.
19:36I need to go.
19:36I need to go.
19:40I need to go.
19:41Where are you going to go?
19:43I want to go.
19:44I'm going to go.
19:45Where are you going?
19:47I am not a good one.
19:48What's going on?
19:50I'm going to get you going.
19:51But you're going to get you going there.
19:56I'll get you.
19:57¡Oh, Dios mío!
19:59¡Oh!
20:01Los jardines están están en el mundo.
20:03Están están en el choque para los niños.
20:05¡Oh!
20:07¿Te gustaría que pueda jugar con la gracia?
20:11Bueno, sí.
20:12Gracias.
20:19¿Para?
20:20¡Sí!
20:24¡Oh!
20:26¡Oh!
20:26¡Oh!
20:28¡I did it!
20:30¡Natural!
20:32Beginner's luck.
20:34¡Right!
20:36¡Ready!
20:37¡Oh!
20:40¡Oh!
21:13¡Oh!
21:14¡Oh!
21:15¡Oh!
21:16¡Oh!
21:19¡Oh!
21:20¡Oh!
21:20¡Muy bien!
21:23¡Muy bien!
21:24¡Oh!
21:26¡Oh!
21:27Oh, oh, oh!
21:27¡Oh!
21:28Um...
21:29Um...
21:29...er...
21:32...that's probably enough Graces for today.
21:37Oh, yes.
21:39I brought a book for Mrs Vila.
21:41Oh, of course, yes.
21:43¡Poetry!
21:45Do you like poetry, Miss Bennet?
21:47I prefer facts to whimsy.
21:52Whimsy?
21:53I've tried, uh, well, Cowper, uh, Byron, even some Dryden.
21:59But, um, well, it seems to me that it's all just words.
22:05What were you expecting?
22:08Are you a scholar, sir?
22:11No.
22:12I'm a barrister, junior.
22:14And though the law is my business, poetry is my passion.
22:19What do you like to read?
22:22Uh, works of non-fiction, really.
22:24Um, histories and, uh, and geology.
22:27And what do you like to read for pleasure?
22:31That is reading for pleasure.
22:34There is nothing you like about poetry.
22:40Well, some poems are mercifully short.
22:45Well, now that you have thrown down the gauntlet,
22:50I will not rest until you have appreciated the merits of poetry.
22:56I believe that this is the book that will open the heart of Miss Mary Bennett.
23:05Oh.
23:09The gardener's at home.
23:10Oh, is it?
23:11Uh, yes.
23:12Yes.
23:13Uh, well, yes.
23:15Uh, I have a...
23:16Oh, Tom!
23:42And we'll need more scallops.
23:44Mrs. Shonley will claim she could have possibly,
23:46before helping herself to seven.
23:49Must be very strange without your family here.
23:53No, there was always at least one argument about stolen perfume.
24:02Mary, you look lovely.
24:06I'm not sure.
24:10I think we should let your hair fall naturally.
24:13No point trying to force it into curls if it doesn't want to go.
24:21Here.
24:28What's up, honey?
24:35Thank you.
24:39Cheers.
24:41Cheers.
24:43Cheers.
24:44Cheers.
24:47Cheers.
24:50Cheers.
25:01I mean, that's basically it,
25:03but they're awfully fun to...
25:05hunt.
25:10Good evening.
25:12I do not believe we have met.
25:14I'm Miss Baxter.
25:16Delighted to meet you, Miss Baxter.
25:18I am Miss Bennet.
25:20I have not long moved to London
25:21from Hertfordshire.
25:24Fenshaw, Mr Fenshaw.
25:30A friend of my mother's
25:31died eating those nuts.
25:35One got stuck in his throat
25:36and that was it.
25:37He was quite dead in minutes.
25:44Oh, I hope I didn't cause any offence.
25:46That was marvellous.
25:48Oh, I shall keep that story in mind
25:49for when I want to be rid of someone.
25:51Forgive me, it wasn't deliberate.
25:55I hate the first 20 minutes
25:57of these evenings.
25:58As do I.
25:59I never know who to talk to
26:00and I often find myself
26:01saying the wrong things.
26:07Your dress is striking.
26:08It looks very well on you.
26:10You really think so?
26:11I feel a little bold in it.
26:13Well, you're in London, Miss Bennet.
26:16If you're going to be bold,
26:17here is the place to do it.
26:20Perhaps London will be the start
26:21of something new for you.
26:23Perhaps it will.
26:25And if you want to be shown
26:27around town,
26:28I could call on you.
26:38London, it turned out,
26:40was a place of learning
26:41as much as teaching.
26:43A place of trying new things.
26:46And though I had never liked change,
26:50I seemed to be enjoying myself.
26:54Much about me felt different
26:56after just one week.
26:59Being here had lifted my spirits.
27:02I felt something long forgotten.
27:06Hope.
27:07Are you looking for someone?
27:12You must tell me all about it
27:14in a moment.
27:16Meg, there's a gentleman
27:18I'd like you to meet.
27:19We have something
27:20of an understanding.
27:22Please may I introduce
27:23Mr. Tom Hayward.
27:30We've already met.
27:32Miss Bennet?
27:32Oh, of course, you must have.
27:35Oh, I see you went
27:36for the Pomona trim.
27:38Ah, it's spring green.
27:40It's quite different to Pomona.
27:43Well, it suits you very well.
27:46Tom!
27:47Excuse us, ladies.
27:48You must come and meet
27:49my colleague, Mr. May.
27:55Mr. Hayward and I met
27:56three years ago this spring.
27:58We are hoping to be married
28:00next year.
28:01Not everything went exactly
28:03as I would have liked.
28:04Come on, Becca.
28:06Oh, please excuse us.
28:08Come, Mary.
28:09It will be fun.
28:10Of course a man such as
28:11Mr. Hayward would have
28:12secured a match.
28:15But I had made friends
28:17and that was enough.
28:25I did not know
28:26what tomorrow would bring.
28:29But for now,
28:31at least I had someone
28:33to dance with.
28:34I had a chance.
28:48I had a chance.
28:49I had a chance.
28:50I had a chance.
28:52I had a chance.
28:52I had a chance.
28:53I had a chance.
28:54I had a chance.
28:55I had a chance.
28:55I had a chance.
28:56I had a chance.
28:58I had a chance.
29:01I had a chance.
29:26¡Gracias!
29:35If London was to be a new start for me, I would push all sorts of poetry and love aside.
29:47Mother warned me of the dirt, disease, and despair that could be found here.
29:53She failed to mention the breadth of humanity.
29:59And the anonymity of the city suited me well.
30:03I had taken to walking the city's beautiful parks.
30:07It seemed that all life was in London.
30:11And here I could be anything I wanted.
30:21Surely I would find something I could succeed at in this vast, inspiring city.
30:29Where did I put it?
30:31How should I know?
30:32Oh, she breaks my heart a little.
30:35She seems so awkward in herself.
30:37I worry my sisters caused some harm to poor Mary.
30:40Oh, I wonder.
30:42She's perhaps not the most natural motherness.
30:45But what else could she do with life?
30:47Be her mother's companion?
30:49I thought Tom brought her out of herself.
30:51Kind-hearted man that he is.
30:53And she seemed to get on well with Anne Baxter the other evening.
30:56But she has so little confidence.
30:58Yes.
30:59It can't have been easy growing up in the shadow of her sisters.
31:03Found it.
31:04Ah, there it is.
31:06Well, I'm happy she's with us.
31:07She has an interesting and memorable mind.
31:14Oh, it's Bennet.
31:17Mr Haywood.
31:19How are you?
31:20Eager to hear how you've been getting on with the poetry?
31:23Oh, well, er...
31:25I'm not sure I have the mind to appreciate it completely.
31:27I keep hoping Mr Coleridge will explain himself or that Mr Wordsworth will say what he really means.
31:33But they seem to enjoy keeping their secrets.
31:38Well, to not blame yourself.
31:39I think some poets enjoy being difficult to understand.
31:52Miss Bennet, I was so sorry to hear about your father.
31:56Moving to the city without your family.
31:59You not having your mother to confide in.
32:02Oh, it's a relief to be without her.
32:04In fact, it's something of a relief to be without any of them.
32:12I'm sorry you're not feeling yourself.
32:17I'm afraid I'm not.
32:19I'm just not finding my place here as easily as I thought.
32:23Sorry, please excuse me.
32:25Oh, Mary!
32:26Tom, how lovely to see you!
32:28Quietly, my dear, you'll summon the children who I fear have begun to associate Tom's name with a worryingly large
32:34bag of sugar plums.
32:36Excuse me, sorry, I'm sorry.
32:38Ah!
33:00My dear Mary, I fear your correspondence has not been reaching me.
33:05I have heard nothing from you at all.
33:11How are you managing your duties?
33:13You never were good with children, even when you were one yourself.
33:19I may require you to return to Pemberley, where I will be spending the summer.
33:27Lizzie has expressed a wish to see you, but more urgently, my new puppy has a nervous air and requires
33:34near-constant companionship.
33:40I had come to London to see the world outside of my family, and that is what I would do.
33:52Oh, Mary, you're painting!
33:55To teach the children.
33:56Oh, how marvellous to see your imagination at play.
34:03It's terrible.
34:05No, no, it's...
34:07It's very neat.
34:10Did you see the letter from your mother?
34:13Is she well?
34:15Between several complaints about the damp, the unseasonable pollen, and an unpleasant exchange with a rude shopkeeper, I understand that
34:23she is.
34:23Yes, I honestly think she enjoys such encounters. It makes her feel more alive.
34:30Oh, now, speaking of encounters, I think this might be of interest to you.
34:36Tom made a strange request to Mr. Gardiner and I, and extended the invitation to you too, Mary.
34:42Oh?
34:42Yes, he was most mysterious.
34:45He wants us to meet him tomorrow morning, where he says he plans to break through our rational reserve and
34:52move our hearts as well as our heads.
34:55He does?
34:56Yes, whatever that might entail.
35:00I must work on my lesson plans.
35:02Oh, Mary, you must join us.
35:04For my sake?
35:06Please consider it.
35:09Thank you.
35:19Thank you.
36:05Mr. and Mrs. Gardiner, Miss Bennet, thank you for humoring me.
36:10Are we allowed to know the purpose of our visit?
36:12I have conspired with the City of London and William Wordsworth himself for a morning recital unlike any other, in
36:19a hidden garden.
36:20Good Lord.
36:21Will Miss Baxter be joining us?
36:22I'm afraid Miss Baxter has a variety of excuses that she skillfully deploys to avoid such events.
36:28Well, remind me to ask her what they are.
36:31Yes, I am afraid that my petitions for good weather have been in vain.
36:35No matter.
36:36We will not be dissuaded by a little drizzle.
36:40A little drizzle?
36:44Just down there.
36:52This way?
36:53Yes.
37:10That's magical.
37:13Wow.
37:19Please forgive the theatrics.
37:22I had given Miss Bennet the impossible task of understanding poetry without any real sense of how to feel it.
37:31Sometimes, with poetry, the more I think, the less I understand.
37:46Earth has not anything to show more fair.
37:51Dull would he be of soul who could pass by, a sight so touching in its majesty.
37:58This city now doth, like a garment, wear the beauty of the morning, silent, bare.
38:11Ships, towers, domes, theatres and temples lie open unto the fields and to the sky.
38:24All bright and glittering in the smokeless air, never did sun more beautifully steep in its first splendor.
38:35Valley, rock or hill, nurse or I, never felt a calm so deep.
38:44The river glideth at his own sweet will.
38:50Dear God, the very houses seem asleep.
38:56And all that mighty heart is lying still.
39:11Well done, Tom.
39:13A moving rendition.
39:15Tom, I confess, I felt entirely transported by the force of your words.
39:20And what a beautiful place.
39:23Our wisteria never flowers like this.
39:26Yes, your ability to kill our plants seems to be second to none.
39:30Come, let's take a turn.
39:32Indeed.
39:47Well, Miss Bennet.
39:49Miss Bennet.
40:02No, I wish to say something inspiring, but I do not know how.
40:13You have such varied ways to express your feelings.
40:18Mine feel frozen or feeble or entirely unknowable.
40:28I do not know, Miss Bennet.
40:31Well, I use the words of others to puzzle through things I do not understand.
40:37But I do not believe that you are truly a stranger to strong emotions.
40:51Forgive me.
40:53Oh, um...
40:55Sorry, Miss Bennet, I...
40:56Oh.
40:57It was just a petal.
40:59Miss Hayward, I think I must leave London.
41:03Well, you've only just arrived.
41:06It's no great event.
41:07My mother needs a companion.
41:09I see.
41:10And, well, you will likely be very busy soon, what with, uh, social engagements and, uh, Miss Baxter.
41:23I'm sure you'll scarcely have time to notice I'm gone.
41:27Well, I'd hoped that this would restore your spirit.
41:30Oh, indeed it did.
41:32It did.
41:33Thank you.
41:34I shall never forget it.
41:50I shall travel to Pemberley on the 18th.
41:53Good heavens.
41:55Mary, this is quite unexpected.
41:57Well, is anything the matter?
41:59My mother needs me.
42:01Is my sister bored?
42:04I know that she's more likely than anyone in England to summon the troops on account of her loneliness.
42:08But must you answer the call?
42:12I think I must.
42:15Well, we so enjoy having you here.
42:17The children will be disappointed.
42:20Yes, it's kind of you to say.
42:23It is the truth.
42:28I must plan today's lessons.
42:38Dearest mother, although my time in London has been enlightening, I will be by your side for your summer at
42:48Pemberley.
42:50As requested.
42:53I am grateful for the generosity extended by my aunt and uncle.
42:57But as you rightly point out, I do not wish to burn them.
43:01And it will, of course, be an honor to look after your new pup.
43:29Do come in.
43:46There was an old woman who lived in a shoe.
43:53She had so many children, she didn't know what to do.
43:57She gave them some broth without any bread.
44:00And she whipped them all soundly and put them to bed.
44:04That poem started very well and ended very badly.
44:09A good observation, Miss Marianne.
44:11Why didn't she just move into a boot when the children got too many?
44:15Fine suggestion, Miss Rebecca.
44:16Is the Glorious Revolution all finished then, Miss Bennet?
44:20This week, we will write and perform a poem instead.
44:24Yes!
44:26I want to do a poem about myself because I'm quite interested.
44:30I'll do typhoid.
44:32Or frogs.
44:34Disgusting.
44:36Miss Marianne?
44:39Love.
44:50The eye cannot choose but see.
44:54We cannot bid the ear be still.
44:58Our bodies feel where they be.
45:01Against or with our will.
45:11A big green frog sat on a log.
45:14The frog was quite full.
45:17It had eaten ten flies, two slugs, one worm and three lily pad pies.
45:27Oh, Miss Bennet, you were obviously inspired by our morning poetry reading.
45:33Oh, I was.
45:35No, I, um, yes, I am.
45:38Oh, no!
45:39What is it, Miss Rebecca?
45:41I had a prop and I forgot to use it.
45:45Oh, uh, well, um, fear not.
45:49A prop is, is a cheap trick that diminishes the power of words.
45:53Indeed.
45:57Who's next?
46:02I would be sad to leave London.
46:05It was the first time I had ever felt a sense of belonging.
46:11Oh, there you are.
46:12Well, I wanted to say thank you for such a wonderful day.
46:17The children will be inconsolable about you leaving.
46:20Marianne is stitching you a cushion with an inspirational Latin phrase, I believe.
46:26Oh, yes.
46:27It's mori quam fudari.
46:30Death before dishonor.
46:31Goodness, how exciting.
46:35We shall miss you, Mary.
46:36I think we both know I'm not well-suited to London's liveliness.
46:44Oh, Mary.
46:45You've barely given it a chance.
46:49Things change.
46:51People.
46:53Situations.
46:56Over time.
47:01May I venture something on that subject?
47:06The other day, I went to buy a bonnet.
47:10And in the first shop I went into, found a stunning bonnet.
47:15An elegant blue.
47:16Quite lovely on me, if I dare say such a thing.
47:19When I went to purchase it, it had been reserved for someone else.
47:27I went into another shop and found not four other bonnets I liked just as much.
47:33And in the end, one a shade of dusky pink that suited me even more.
47:44Do you see what I'm saying?
47:49Blue is not your colour?
47:52No, I'm saying that London has such a variety of choices and such quantity, too.
47:58You may enjoy the first thing you see well enough.
48:01But often, something more exciting will come along.
48:07Anyway, I just thought I'd let you know.
48:09Well, um, yes, thank you for that.
48:13It was very interesting.
48:16Oh, I was meaning to tell you.
48:18We have decided to host a little entertainment tomorrow.
48:21A night of games.
48:23Oh, dear.
48:24What sort of games?
48:25No catching.
48:26Word games.
48:28Riddles and such.
48:29And very pleasant company.
48:31Company I know?
48:32Or new company?
48:34All new.
48:36And very friendly.
48:38We desperately desire that you remember London fondly.
48:43This may be your final event with us before you leave.
48:50I resolved not to send the letter to Mother just yet.
48:55It would be a shame to leave before the weekend.
49:00It would be a pleasure.
49:01Oh, dear.
49:06¡Gracias!
49:36Sorry, I didn't realise there was a line.
49:38No, please.
49:39I wish more people had such a restrained relationship to punch.
49:44May I?
49:45Yes, of course.
49:47Noble defender of the punch.
49:49I surrender my post.
49:54And what brings you here?
49:55The word games or the company?
49:57I like words.
49:59I'm not much for games.
50:01Ah, and it is the company you've come for.
50:05Miss...
50:05Bennett.
50:06Mary Bennett.
50:08William Ryder.
50:10And where have you come from, Miss Bennett?
50:12Surely I would have remembered seeing you near Punchbowls across London.
50:17I am...
50:18new in town.
50:21Well, I for one am always pleased to see a new face.
50:25So.
50:28Now, please gather.
50:30Take your seats.
50:30I see the riddles are about to commence.
50:33We are wise to begin with full glasses.
50:42And now, the quickfire round.
50:46Two words, one answer.
50:49Counterfeit agony.
50:51Counterfeit agony.
50:52Agony.
50:52A mean trick?
50:54My brain is in agony.
50:55It isn't counterfeit.
50:56It is quite real.
50:58Champagne.
50:59Right.
51:00Champagne.
51:01Champagne.
51:19Champagne!
51:21My God, I know it.
51:24Punch.
51:25Oh, well done, Mr. Ryder.
51:27Finally, you've arrived on the score.
51:33My first word, comedians dread to hear, my next new life in a revolving year.
51:52Offspring.
51:52Offspring.
51:53Oh, well done, Miss Bennet.
51:56Very.
51:57Well done.
51:58Bravo.
51:59Yes, Miss Bennet.
52:01Cheers to you.
52:03What's next?
52:04Mandarin.
52:06Delicious.
52:06Miss Bennet.
52:07How lovely to see you.
52:08Too, Miss Baxter.
52:10Mr. Hayward.
52:11We're so pleased you made it.
52:12I had false intelligence.
52:14You were busy this evening.
52:15Well, we somehow managed to persuade Mr. Hayward away from his work.
52:19I have an important case.
52:21Oh, he has the terrible fortune of being the only lawyer in London who exclusively gets important cases.
52:28Do excuse us, Mrs. Dream.
52:30Excuse me.
52:32Miss Bennet.
52:34Tom, Will.
52:37Mr. Ryder and I studied law together.
52:39Ah.
52:39Yes, Mr. Hayward is responsible for my untimely retirement in the field.
52:44Is that so, Mr. Ryder?
52:45Well, he fed me so many poems, I believe myself a deep, romantic soul.
52:50Too sensitive for the rigours of law.
52:52Seems like a heavy char chalet solely at the feet of poetry.
52:56Mary, how is the night of games going?
52:59Do we have any hope for making a late charge for the prize?
53:02Not unless you wish to bribe our host.
53:04Miss Bennet here is putting us all to shame.
53:06Oh, nonsense, Mr. Ryder.
53:07You beat me to the punch.
53:09You see?
53:11Masterful words.
53:15Please gather yourselves for the penultimate round.
53:19Mr. Ryder.
53:20What?
53:21I'm glad to see you're in better spirits, Miss Bennet.
53:26This evening has been something of a tonic, Mr. Hayward.
53:32Round three.
53:34Ready?
53:36Sunday.
53:37Yes.
53:38Appoint your Miss Baxter.
53:42Big char.
53:43Is it doll troops?
53:45No, no, no.
53:46Forget I said anything.
53:47Mercury.
53:48Yes.
53:48Well done.
53:50Is it really?
53:51Well done.
53:52Remarkable.
53:56Come on.
53:57Anybody?
53:58Lighthouse.
53:59Yes.
54:00I've barely had a chance to think, let alone speak.
54:03I've never known a lack of thinking to prevent you from speaking.
54:07That is five points apiece for Miss Clark and Miss Bennet.
54:12Oh, well done.
54:20The final round.
54:21The two players with the most points go head to head to crack one final riddle and decide
54:27the winner.
54:27The leaders come as no surprise.
54:29Miss Clark.
54:31And Miss Bennet.
54:33You mean I didn't make it?
54:35I'm astonished.
54:37Mrs. Gardiner, would you do the odds?
54:41To suffer my seconds, the doom of my first.
54:46And of all of my seconds, my whole is the worst.
55:03Heartache!
55:05Yes!
55:07Good Lord!
55:08She's Britain's finest mind!
55:10Huzzah!
55:11Huzzah!
55:13Huzzah!
55:14We declare we have a winner!
55:17London's newest arrival, but it's fiercest competitor, Miss Mary Bennet.
55:23Huzzah!
55:28I'm very glad that we arrived in time to see you crowned, Miss Bennet.
55:32Thank you.
55:34I wanted to say...
55:36Miss Bennet, you are a liar.
55:39Am I?
55:40You told me you were not much for games.
55:43Well, I...
55:44I can't catch.
55:47Miss Bennet, I've been meaning to invite you to tea since I hear, very sadly, you are
55:52leaving London.
55:53Miss Bennet, surely not.
55:54You can't deprive the game players of London your... your riddling talents.
55:59A round of applause for our winner, Miss Bennet.
56:03Well done!
56:04Well done!
56:08In that moment, I think I understood what my aunt was telling me with the convoluted story
56:14about the bonnets.
56:19That quantity... has a quality... all of its own.
56:28Thank you so much.
56:30I never doubted you.
56:31Well done!
56:32Oh, good speed.
56:33This way.
56:34Thank you for coming.
56:35Thank you for coming.
56:36Mr. Young, please.
56:38Have a wonderful...
56:39Mary, how you shone.
56:41You even caught the attention of the most eligible bachelor in town.
56:45I... I've been thinking...
56:46It seems a shame to leave London before I've, you know, given it a fair chance.
56:52I think I might like to stay a little while, if it's not too much burden.
56:56It's not a burden to us at all.
56:59We're delighted to have you with us.
57:04Oh, thank you so much for coming.
57:06Living in London was helping me to see that there could be more to life than just marriage
57:10or misery.
57:12Perhaps my aunt was right.
57:14Even the most hopeless of situations, the most hopeless of people, can, with kindness,
57:24change, little by little, over time.
57:30I was excited to discover who Mary Bennett might be.
58:04I was excited to see that there could be more to life than just marriage.
58:04I was excited to see that there could be more to life than just marriage.
58:04I was excited to see that there could be more, of course, than just marriage.
58:05I was excited to see that there could be more to life than just marriage.
58:06You wouldn't have to take it...
58:06...that would be the same.
