00:45How to define a foresight?
00:51By the secrets we keep, shall you know us?
00:55By the little lies we tell?
01:01By the choices we make, which echo down the generations.
01:07Choices which will come back to haunt us.
01:11Until one of us decides to change the story.
01:24Believe me, this will pass.
01:26And we'll come through it stronger and more devoted than ever.
01:31I believe you.
01:43My concern is this.
01:45Now he knows about the children.
01:48Will he be able to forget them again?
01:54Trust.
02:02You need fresh air.
02:06Wish I could take it to the seaside.
02:09I know where I like to go.
02:13To a magic place.
02:15Where all the streets are made of water.
02:18Where the poor servant girl met the prince.
02:32So, at the next board meeting, I propose to introduce the subject of my nephew's unfitness to be chair.
02:43Not just in temperament, but in behaviour.
02:48As in?
02:49Any action that might bring the firm into disrepute.
02:52This being the case, not only can he be said not to be chair material,
02:58he should be expelled from the company altogether.
03:06You're not the first to sow wild oats in your youth.
03:13But there's no need to pay for those mistakes with your career.
03:16They're not mistakes, Dad.
03:18They're my actual flesh and blood.
03:20And that's important.
03:22An heir is important.
03:24Something you currently lack.
03:26But for the present, when your succession is about to be challenged,
03:30oh, I am well aware of James' manoeuvrings.
03:36It is imperative that we keep this matter a secret.
03:42Your father and I have been wondering,
03:45is there a case for offering some inducement?
03:49Inducement for the young lady in question.
03:52To ensure her silence?
03:54Her silence is not in doubt.
03:56But if she could be persuaded to leave London...
03:59What?
04:00Set up home and business elsewhere...
04:02Suitably funded, of course.
04:03So she's expected to uproot her life and that of her children, for my convenience.
04:07When she's made it abundantly clear she wants no further contact.
04:10And you trust her?
04:11Completely.
04:15You are not proposing some kind of public statement?
04:18About the children?
04:20Well, how would that benefit any of us?
04:23No, I intend to honour her wishes.
04:25Whilst deciding how to discharge my financial obligation to her.
04:28Which will be my...
04:30Decision.
04:32No one else's.
04:39Are we sure he's the father?
04:42Why else would he be at a shop?
04:44And it was that business in Italy with the ladies' maid.
04:47And there we have it.
04:50The thing to tip the scales against him.
04:53But let's keep this to ourselves for now.
04:58Do I think I'd be the better chair?
05:00Of course.
05:02Do I need to stoop to scheming to achieve it?
05:05You can leave all that to me.
05:23I've got another note from Mr. Foresight.
05:25Oh, my God.
05:33Oh.
05:36Oh, my God.
05:46Oh, my God.
06:16So, if you loved her, why did you marry Mama?
06:25Because your mother was, is. An incredible woman. Cultured, caring, kind. And I valued that.
06:39In those early days after Venice, I was sometimes a little lost.
06:44And had you known about her situation, what would you have done?
06:57I can't answer that. You just did. June, wait.
07:06June, wait.
07:13June, wait.
07:27You've had time.
07:32I don't underestimate the pain this has caused. But I am here. And I have no plans to be elsewhere.
07:48Then all shall be well.
07:49June, wait.
08:12You came.
08:13Did you doubt it?
08:22Forgive me. Yesterday, I was overwhelmed.
08:26I failed to observe the proper formalities.
08:29Allow me to make amends.
08:36Miss Heron, you have made me the happiest of men.
08:41Would you give me the honor of wearing this ring?
08:54You dislike her?
08:55No, no. How could I? It's just...
08:58I mean, is this happening to me?
09:02Well, there must be so many more suitable women of your own station.
09:04Very many eminently suitable. All art and polish and impeccable breeding.
09:17Whereas you are all nature.
09:23And to me, that is perfection.
09:39May I now have the honor of introducing you to my family?
09:45My love?
09:48Yes.
09:51Yes.
09:53Yes.
09:55Yes.
10:05Yes.
10:29Mama was always fond of that one.
10:31She was a fine woman.
10:34Not a fast love, but...
10:37a lasting one.
10:44So, it's a full turn-out tomorrow?
10:47What's this?
10:48Epsom races. Monty's horse is running.
10:51What could possibly go wrong?
10:52What shall I wear?
10:55I need to cut quite the dash when I strut into the ring with Lady Peaches.
11:00Isn't that the groom's job?
11:01When one's nurtured a nag as I have, one feels a bond, a connection.
11:06You don't think of Mountingale yourself, then?
11:08Do you know the thought had occurred?
11:10But the 230 Epsom, is that the place to make one's debut?
11:12I thought I'd wear my peach hat in homage to Monty's horse.
11:16But if it doesn't win...
11:18Well, I believe by the end of tomorrow we'll have something to celebrate.
11:21To that end, I'll be bringing a guest.
11:23Anyone we know.
11:24I wouldn't wish to spoil the surprise.
11:27Well, hardly a surprise.
11:29Beginning on Miss Carteret?
11:31If you've a guinea to waste.
11:38It's always a blow to realize that someone you love is not perfect.
11:44Of course you want him to be.
11:48But...
11:50He's fallen short.
11:52And I can't forgive him.
11:54Parents disappoint their children.
11:56Children disappoint their parents.
12:00Mine have a talent for it.
12:03Even now, I suspect that your Uncle James is harnessing your father's imperfections to use against him.
12:12And you may say, quite right.
12:14Whereas I would say...
12:17Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
12:24Chin up, my dear.
12:26Tomorrow's race should cheer your spirits.
12:37Yes, peaches!
12:38Come on, peaches!
12:39Hold it!
12:40Go!
12:41Go, britches!
12:42Come on, lady, britches!
12:44Come on, lady, britches!
12:46Come on, lady, britches!
12:49Door!
12:50Door!
12:51Yes!
12:53Go!
12:54Go!
12:56Go!
12:57Go!
12:58Teach it!
13:20No, no!
13:24So close.
13:26So close.
13:27You donkey!
13:32Dammit!
13:34I've been sold a pup, a turkey, a clunker, a veritable dud.
13:39But she did so well, Monty. She almost won.
13:46They need to fix that.
13:50How's Alicia?
13:52If we value your life, never ask if she's feeling tired or would like a chair.
13:56Oh, no, she already made that clear.
13:59I'm with child, Jo. I'm not an invalid or an imbecile.
14:06How are things with Francis?
14:09Just saying my connections with Louisa have consequences.
14:12Neither of us reckoned with.
14:14And the implications are frankly severe.
14:25So does Soames propose to join us, or is he keeping his intended under lock and key?
14:32Oh, Miss Carford.
14:34Pa would have been proud to think we'd achieved nobility in three generations.
14:46Just to alert you, I haven't purchased any of our plans with the family, so forgive me if I'm deliberately
14:51vague.
14:51Of course.
14:53Oh.
14:58Miss Heron, Mrs. Heron, my family.
15:03How do you do?
15:07Forgive me, I feel we're a formidable prospect.
15:09Not at all.
15:10I'm delighted to make the acquaintance of such a distinguished family.
15:15Hmm.
15:16And there'll be ample opportunity for deepening that acquaintance, as Miss Heron has done me the honour of agreeing to
15:23be my wife.
15:24Uh-oh.
15:34Uh-oh.
15:35Congratulations.
15:40Our wedding will shortly take place by special licence, after which we depart for Europe.
15:45On your honeymoon? How thrilling.
15:47Where will you go?
15:49Tradition dictates that must remain a secret.
15:53Heron, you say.
15:55Do we know that name?
15:58Who are your people, my dear?
16:01No one of consequence.
16:03My father was a professor, and my mother...
16:04Oh, can we please not subject Miss Heron to the Spanish Inquisition?
16:07No, no, no, indeed.
16:09That function belongs to me.
16:14The customary formalities?
16:17Yes, of course.
16:21Yes.
16:25Shall we?
16:34I thought it best to get the ordeal out of the way as soon as possible.
16:38As to the wedding itself, you must save a fortnight from now is too soon.
16:41A fortnight?
16:43Well, surely the sooner we arrive in Paris.
16:46Yeah.
16:54Bye.
16:56Oh.
16:58OK.
17:14Please?
17:15모습
17:19your mother is seriously displeased
17:25why wasn't she consulted and the haste how long have you known this girl long enough
17:32she seems rather lovely oh emily she is you'll like her you must be fearfully in love in love
17:43the juice does that mean it means everything trust me
17:49this is not the match we were expecting no i see that and to take the plunge now when joe's
17:56dug
17:56himself a hole we've got a clear shot of the chairmanship and you're about to go
18:00gallivanting off around the continent perhaps we should just leave joe to it oh are you serious
18:18the insanity of it
18:22i think i rather envy him
18:25how
18:27daring to follow his heart
18:30did you did i for god's sake emily
18:37what sort of a question is that
18:44come along pudding shall we retire
18:56well that was sheer purgatory
19:02absolute hell
19:04grinning like fools as if our whole lives were not on the rack
19:15i know what makes this even worse
19:18we always wanted children of our own
19:25yes
19:30somehow that never happened
19:36now to know that you have children with another
19:44the last thing i ever wanted was to cause you pain
19:54we must protect june as much as we can from all this
19:58yes
19:59i
19:59i
20:00i
20:01i
20:02i
20:02i
20:04i
20:30You're not wearing that, are you?
20:34I mean, the foresight ladies will never approve.
20:37Is it not sufficiently modish?
20:40My concern is that you don't embarrass yourself.
20:44You're stepping so far outside your milieu.
20:47I thank you for your concern, but I can only start as I mean to go on.
20:52By doing what feels right.
20:56To me.
21:07So I was thinking crimson or burgundy.
21:12My husband says don't be extravagant, which is rich coming from him when he outspends his allowance every month and
21:17then blames me because he has no profession.
21:20It's hardly my fault my father and uncle won't give him a role in the company.
21:23I sort of haven't hinted at it countless times, but I just keep saying we have a reputation to uphold
21:28at Forsyte & Co.
21:29Forsyte?
21:31But your name's...
21:32Starty, yes.
21:33By marriage.
21:34Forsyte, by birth.
21:36You know my cousin-in-law, Mrs. Francis Forsyte?
21:40Yes.
21:41Yes.
21:43I should perhaps warn you, I'm snowed under with orders.
21:48It could be months before your gown is ready.
21:50In which case I'd quite understand if you wish to go elsewhere.
21:55Elsewhere?
21:56I should think not.
21:58And her tone!
21:59Almost as if she was wishing me gone.
22:01And why would that be?
22:03Thank your cousin, Jo.
22:06What?
22:08And his not-so-guilded youthful escapades.
22:17I congratulate you, cousin.
22:19Mrs. Heron seems an excellent choice.
22:24Perhaps one's reached an age where one is free to make a choice,
22:28without succumbing to family pressures.
22:34One lives in hope.
22:39Joe!
22:41Fathered the dressmaker's children!
22:43Well, well, well.
22:46The dirty dog!
22:48How appalling!
22:50But it does play into our hands.
22:52How so?
22:53He wouldn't be the first to father children out of wedlock?
22:56For our purposes, it serves us to portray him as a libertine.
22:59The callous seducer.
23:00The neglectful father.
23:02I mean, any of these could be said to jeopardise the reputation of the firm.
23:05But it happened before he and Francis met.
23:08Some might call it a youthful indiscretion.
23:10Well, they'd be wrong.
23:11Such behaviour is-
23:12Yes, Monty?
23:14What is it?
23:19Am I looking at my club?
23:25Does he perform any useful function?
23:29He could, given a chance.
23:31If this is yet another bid to give him a role.
23:34Not a role.
23:35A seat on the board.
23:37You are joking.
23:39The board meets tomorrow, yes.
23:41And your plan is to expel Joe from the company.
23:44Do you have a majority?
23:46Are you sure you couldn't use an extra vote?
23:50Well...
23:50Monty's your man.
23:52He's entirely without scruples.
23:54He'll vote whichever way you tell him to.
24:02Excuse me.
24:03Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats and welcome, esteemed lecturer and philanthropist,
24:09Mrs. Ellen Parker Barrington.
24:11You believe you have no voice.
24:15I believe the same.
24:18I've been confused, ignored, disrespected in my time.
24:25Oh, but trust me, I'm under no illusion.
24:28It is my wealth, my standing, which now confers power, commands respect, demands attention.
24:36My late husband owned woolen mills in the north, once viewed his workers as commodities, expendable.
24:47But he was brought to see them as precious human souls, worthy of respect, of dignity, of proper recompense.
25:03So, change is possible.
25:07And I owe those who have not been as fortunate as I to challenge ignorance and injustice wherever I see
25:20it.
25:22I invite you to do the same.
25:30Applause
25:43Mr. Renegade.
25:46Mr. Baccony.
25:47What brings you here?
25:49The same as you.
25:50A wish for rational argument.
25:52A disgust for inequality.
25:55Would you, would you care for some please?
25:56cake thank you so you're an architect how splendid i should introduce you to my family
26:11they'll be terribly impressed no i doubt it i'm a modernist in my experience the money classes
26:17are highly conservative in their tastes now you i suspect are a radical i like to think i have an
26:24open mind why else would you be here unchaperoned i don't care a fig for such nonsense i suspect
26:32your mother does and what she doesn't know can't hurt her do you have a card in case any of
26:42my
26:42family should at some point require your services you and i both know how unlikely that is
26:56culver street hardly an illustrious address and it's a garret oh i adore garret
27:21proposal to admit montagu darty to the board i don't expect you to like it
27:26he's an imbecile but if we're to get the votes we need
27:37last minute addition to the agenda item five reputational risk and remedial action
27:45so here we are here we are let battle commence
28:10large brandy in the day's papers shop shop item number four the proposed election of montagu darty

28:26seconded
28:31all those in favor

29:13item five
29:16reputational risk and remedial action
29:21yes
29:22i'm afraid
29:23there have been alarming rumors implicating one of our own which
29:28should they reach the ears of our more eminent clients could lead them to take their business
29:32elsewhere what rumors are these concerning a senior partner
29:39debauching a serving that is not what happened that is not who she was and those are not the circumstances
29:44and for those of you as yet in the dark
29:47my nephew
29:54i had a relationship prior to my marriage with a young woman i met in venice
29:58some days ago i learned that when we parted she was with child
30:02twins to be precise
30:04now ten years of age living with their mother in london
30:08and distasteful as some of you doubtless may find it
30:11distasteful
30:12try scandalous
30:14inexcusable
30:15what we can't ignore is that many of our clients will
30:18find such a liaison
30:20distasteful
30:21but of course they will
30:25because such things have never happened in respectable families
30:29good lord
30:30what a nurse
30:31and it'll be the first misstep
30:33that this family has never made
30:36mamaw for goodness sake
30:37gentlemen
30:38please
30:42may i ask what brings you here today
30:44curiosity

31:00can i not see what my marriage settlement bought
31:03mater
31:05the matter in hand
31:07concerns the irrevocable damage to company reputation should joe remain within its ranks we are inviting him

31:23family
31:25devoid of scandal

31:30skeletal remains
31:35yes but the effect
31:37the damage to our reputation
31:39there will be no damage
31:40the matter can be hushed up and the girl paid off
31:42please allow me to deal with this
31:48if we could be certain of the girl's discretion we could agree to turn a blind eye
31:55but
31:56though i trust
31:57though i trust he's not expecting any settlement to come out of company funds
32:02i'm best assured
32:03i have no intention of asking anyone here to take responsibility for my obligations
32:09the fact remains i had two children

45:15Oh, my God.
45:55Perhaps she's had a change of heart.
45:58If she has any sense.
46:00Mama, where is she?
46:02I don't know.
46:25Mama, where is she?
46:57Mama, where is she?
47:15Mama, where is she?
47:18Mama, where is she?
47:55Mama, where is she?
47:58But true love is what matters.
48:01A meeting of minds.
48:03A conjunction of souls.
48:06That is what matters.
48:08Good.
48:10We agree.
48:12We agree.
48:25We agree.
48:28We agree.
48:31We agree.
48:34We agree.
48:34We agree.
48:37We agree.
48:39We agree.
48:40We agree.
48:41We agree.
48:41We agree.
48:41I don't know.
49:14You see, it wasn't that hard, deciding to move on from them.
49:27That wasn't what I said.
49:33It was implied.
49:35I said my commitment to you is beyond doubt, but it suggests that I've moved on from them.
49:41It would be to deny that any of it mattered.
49:45Well, of course, I accept that you were once fond of her.
49:48I wasn't fond, Frances.
49:52My children were conceived of love.
50:07Then let us be clear.
50:11That love, as you call it, has no place in this house.
50:15So kill it.
50:17Once and for all.
50:21We'll face the consequences.
50:42For what?
50:45Showing me a life and a man that I never knew existed.
50:53Till I met you.
50:56No.
51:03No.
51:04No.
51:07No.
51:18No.
51:20No.
51:21No.
