00:20I'm ready for the high night, I'll go.
00:33Everyone has their own world full of possibilities, to dream their own dreams, to be who they
00:39want to be, to love whoever they want.
00:41We all have the power to shape our own destiny, whether we use it or not.
00:49We all have the power to shape our own destiny, whether we use it or not.
00:56I'm on fire.
00:59James, I totally messed up, Dad's going to lose it.
01:06Are you still at Cyril's?
01:07I don't know what to do.
01:08I'm on my way right now.
01:10I'm on fire!
01:14Oh yeah, there he is.
01:17The gentleman of the evening, the greatest, the gorgeous, and every woman's dream boyfriend,
01:29James Balfour!
01:34So, was she as good as she looked, Tom?
01:36Hey, fuck the both of you.
01:37That's my sister you're talking about, man.
01:39Ooh.
01:40Fucking chill out, Alistair.
01:42Yeah, I need to cool off.
01:43Watch it!
01:43Oh!
01:44Whoa!
01:45I didn't get a door like this.
01:47Go, bro!
01:47Go!
01:53Hey, Lydia.
02:00We missed you last night.
02:02Hey, James.
02:03Your sister's here, and she's bringing bad vibes to the party.
02:06Lydia!
02:09Lyd, what's wrong?
02:12Tony, come on.
02:13Wait.
02:17We're in the fucking room, dude.
02:19Hey.
02:20What happened to you?
02:21She was standing in front of us.
02:23She just barged in.
02:25Yeah, who?
02:26Ruby.
02:27Ruby Bell.
02:28She saw us.
02:29The British press will destroy me.
02:31Dad will kill me.
02:32He won't forgive me for another scandal.
02:34Just breathe with me.
02:35And now, calmly, from the beginning, what's happened here?
02:38Who?
02:39Who is this Ruby Bell?
02:41Who?
02:41Who?
02:58He's blown away.
02:59What's happened here?
03:08That's how it struck your sorrow.
03:11The Prophet's Okey
03:20Hello, Mr. Sutton.
03:21Ruby.
03:23You enjoy the summer then?
03:24I bought the books on the Oxford reading list
03:26and read every book twice.
03:28So, yeah.
03:30Some reading for you?
03:33This is enough material for a biography.
03:35I think a little reference should be a problem.
03:43Everyone deserves a world full of opportunities.
03:46And if there's one place where those opportunities begin,
03:48it's at Oxford University.
03:50The world welcomes those who have studied there.
03:53And if everything goes as planned during this term,
03:56then in less than 365 days, I will be there.
04:00Maxton Hall College is my entry ticket.
04:04It's not just a school.
04:06It's one of these schools.
04:34I worked diligently in my room for months
04:37to be awarded a scholarship.
04:38Of course, that makes me the exception here.
04:43For generations, families like the Beauforts
04:46have had more money and power than some royal families.
04:49For them, every door swings open.
04:56British nobility, the son of the Manchester United coach,
05:00the cousin of the Emir of Dubai, they're all here.
05:03They go to the same parties, get the same jobs,
05:06and marry the same people.
05:07A microcosm of millionaires.
05:09And I almost forgot.
05:11Besides money and influence,
05:12my fellow students have another thing in common.
05:14I am invisible to them.
05:16I immediately realized this was my superpower.
05:19If I want to get to Oxford in less than a year,
05:21I can't afford to make any mistakes,
05:23especially in front of this crowd.
05:25The less they notice me, the better.
05:29Well, did you hand a tip?
05:30I just gave it to him.
05:31Oh, I wish I'd asked Mr. Sutton for a reference, too.
05:33He's so cool.
05:35Mrs. Campbell is just as good.
05:36Wasn't she her years valedictorian at Oxford?
05:38Yeah, in 1890.
05:40Lenny was one of them, too,
05:42until a year ago when her parents divorced
05:43and their business collapsed.
05:46How did she manage to get through it?
05:48No idea.
05:52At least that's what my internet research has revealed.
05:55But the collection of works on the theory of justice
05:58that you recommended to us
05:59best reflects the contents of the foundation
06:01of the metaphysics of morals
06:02and the critique of practical reason.
06:06Yes, exactly.
06:07And that's why I always say this here...
06:12This here is Google for the old folks.
06:15Back to Kant.
06:16Mr. Smith, what do you think?
06:18Kant's saying that we should all just do unto others
06:20as you would have them do unto you.
06:23That's the Bible, not Kant.
06:27What, though, if Kant's meaning of categorical imperative
06:29is his way of telling us
06:30we should ignore the consequences of what we're doing
06:32if what we're doing feels right?
06:37Miss Bell?
06:38Reasoning was placed at the core of Kant's philosophy,
06:41not how we feel.
06:41Well, then maybe Kant is less relevant
06:44than we think, then.
06:46Humans are able to reason,
06:48but they usually make decisions
06:49on how they feel, though.
06:54That's what makes it so interesting.
06:56The fact that we can decide differently
06:57if we could do
06:58becomes the moral strength in us.
07:00Yeah.
07:01Eloquently put.
07:02Okay.
07:03Let's turn to the next chapter.
07:11I can't believe the welcome party
07:13is already the day after tomorrow.
07:15I feel like I've spent half this summer
07:16talking to electricians and caterers
07:17that don't really know what they're doing.
07:19And don't forget the great selection of stone DJs.
07:21We really have to book the sober one today.
07:23No, a resume and all that it involves.
07:25Damn it.
07:26What?
07:27I forgot something.
07:28I have to go and see Mr. Sutton.
07:30I'll see you later.
07:31Okay.
07:51Excuse me, sir.
07:59Ruby, I, uh...
08:02I can explain this.
08:07You see, all this, I can explain it.
08:09It's really not what it looks like.
08:12Ruby!
08:41Come on, you see, Percy.
08:42It won't take that long.
08:43Okay.
08:51Ruby, is everything okay?
08:56Ruby!
08:58Okay, the first meeting of the event committee
09:00of the new term is hereby opened.
09:02Um, how are things looking for the welcome party, everyone?
09:04Uh, the posters are up.
09:06Perfect.
09:06I finally got hold of the security company
09:08and talked to the technical experts.
09:10They'll take care of the screen
09:11and projective for the promo video.
09:23Uh, Lexington wants us to include the lacrosse team in the video
09:26because of the chance of three back-to-back titles,
09:28so I will take care of the photos for that.
09:30The promo will finally be worth watching this year.
09:32James Beaufort's sweaty and up close.
09:43What?
09:44James Beaufort is looking at you.
09:57James Beaufort embodies everything that is wrong
09:59in the world of the rich.
10:01Immeasurable privilege, arrogance, and ignorance.
10:04Hey.
10:04Until now, I've been able to keep at least a room full of people
10:07between me and him.
10:08Do you mind if I have a minute with your friend?
10:09For sure?
10:19Okay.
10:35Robin, isn't it?
10:38Ruby.
10:39Yeah, I knew it was something with an R.
10:41Right, you know me.
10:43I know your name, if that's what you mean.
10:45I'm Lydia's brother.
10:47She's in your philosophy class, yeah?
10:51I want you to take this from me.
10:54And remember,
10:56what you saw in Sain's office never happened.
11:06Ten thousand should do it.
11:08You keep quiet until the end of the year.
11:09Well, double it.
11:11Wow.
11:15You're an even greater arsehole than I thought.
11:18Whoa, whoa.
11:19We're not finished.
11:21What about a Maserati and a Fabergé egg as well?
11:24Oh, come on, I know that you can make use of the cash.
11:28You could buy a new backpack, if you like.
11:31At the moment, I have 17 pounds and 28 pence in my backpack,
11:34and I don't need any more.
11:37Do you need change for the cafeteria?
11:39Hmm?
11:41No?
11:42Okay, then this belongs back in your trust fund, I would say.
11:45Are you serious?
11:49Are you serious?
11:49Oh, man.
11:51You can make me, you know?
12:04Oh, my gosh.
12:13Oh, man.
12:32He was trying to buy me, but I don't need his money.
12:36I earn my own.
12:39Our sisters, we compliment each other well.
12:41You're rich and I'm pretty.
12:42Shouldn't you be a master another 15 minutes?
12:44Mrs. Wemsley had a nervous breakdown because Victor set up a Tinder date for her during school.
12:48So we finished early.
12:49I know hearing stuff like that makes you miss your old school.
13:00You should have been there.
13:01It was hilarious.
13:02Ah, my two little elves.
13:04Hi, give me two minutes.
13:05I'm going to quickly get changed.
13:06Come back, we're making dinner.
13:38I need to keep dancing.
13:41I need to keep dancing.
13:42Try to throw out.
13:57And?
13:59I loved it.
14:01Traumatic, but great.
14:02When I read it at your age, it turned my world upside down.
14:06You liking Death Note?
14:10You're only in the middle.
14:12All right.
14:13It's a good thing.
14:13It took me about a month to realize I had to read it from the back.
14:15So considering that, I'm pretty far in.
14:17After James Joyce, you should be happy that it was under a thousand pages.
14:22Ta-da!
14:23Wow.
14:24Ember, you look so gorgeous.
14:25Yeah, how I was born, you know.
14:27But what about what I'm wearing?
14:28Beautiful.
14:29I'm not quite done yet, but I think it will turn out nice.
14:31Maybe it's a lace or a bow.
14:33That's actually my blouse, though.
14:35You've had it for 15 years.
14:36I think it's only fair that I should inherit it now.
14:41Okay.
14:42A toast to our thieving and multi-talented daughters.
14:46Okay.
14:48Who knows how we turned out so well.
15:00Dad hasn't been upstairs in years.
15:03The stair lift provided by the health insurance company broke down just a few months after the accident.
15:08It must drive him insane, but he never so much as mentions it.
15:11That's why I haven't told him that I'm saving up for a new one.
15:14I'll never do that.
15:18Yeah.
15:28Yeah.
15:42The stair lift.
15:43Oh, it's another place.
15:44Yeah.
15:44Yeah, yeah.
15:44How about the?
16:11Can I have everything for my letter of recommendation sir?
16:14Yeah, naturally. I've already written the letter of recommendation.
16:29I just need the documents.
16:38Listen Ruby, there's absolutely nothing in this I don't believe.
16:43The choices you make are no business of mine.
16:47But if someone finds out about this, the recommendation is pointless to me.
17:00I'll find someone else.
17:11Why don't you go back to Sutton and ask him?
17:12I told you I gave him the wrong documents and he doesn't have enough time anymore.
17:15That's so useless.
17:16It was my mistake.
17:17Ever since the thing with Beaufort, you've been so weird. What happened anyway?
17:21Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
17:25I bet their headmaster Lexington hasn't given a recommendation before. Nobody would dare ask.
17:29That's exactly why I'm doing it.
17:44Let's renegotiate.
17:46Is this a daily ritual now?
17:49Don't give me money. I'll just give it back.
17:50Okay, that's enough of the Mother Teresa performance. Just tell me what you want from my family, would you?
17:56I guess to start with, I'd be happy with a restraining order for you.
18:00And Mother Teresa would have taken the money and given it to those who deserved it.
18:03You should know.
18:04You think it's a joke?
18:07Everybody has a price.
18:11What's yours then?
18:27Now what's this?
18:28A little experience with the hottest single guy at school.
18:36Is this the first time you've prostituted yourself? Does it happen often?
18:39Oh, I wasn't going to take your money, as I happen to know you're a little bit short right now.
18:44Go to hell, Beaufort.
18:46Is that you trying to ever go a dirty talk?
18:50Come one step closer towards me.
18:53And I'll kick you in the bollocks.
18:56You get to the point, Robin.
18:58My name is Ruby, for God's sake.
18:59I'm not wasting my whole day here talking to you.
19:06If this means you've changed your mind, sorry, but I don't know if I'm in the mood anymore.
19:12Okay, I'll tell you my price.
19:16I just want you away from me.
19:18Assume that anything less than two meters is too close.
19:22I never want you and me to be seen together again.
19:29No!
19:30No.
19:49Something...
19:51I don't.
19:54I said to my family here...
19:54What are you guys talking about?
19:54No!
20:08Oh
20:18Boys everyone come on hurry up
20:21So next year most of you will end up being oxford and cambridge opponents
20:25This is your last chance to rewrite the max the knoll history books
20:31Both thoughts my winner here as for the past two years make sure that this team is one that doesn't
20:37lose heart
20:50Oh
20:54Don't even think of getting revenge from a call back, okay?
20:58Get out there
21:01Don't let it bother you
21:02Oh
21:33Oh
21:38Oh
21:40I don't get
21:43Oh
21:44Oh
21:48Oh
21:48Oh
21:55Oh
22:01Oh
22:02Oh
22:03Oh
22:03Oh
22:03Oh
22:07Oh
22:07Oh
22:08Oh
22:08Oh
22:08Oh
22:08Oh
22:09Can you hear me now?
22:15Can you hear me now?
22:24Can you hear me now?
22:38Ever since the change of coaching staff two terms ago, this team has made a gigantic leap forward. Coach Freeman
22:44deserves to be extremely proud of his boys.
22:49Alistair, go!
23:00I'm going to call back, you princess.
23:06Oh, dear. What is going on here?
23:08Come on, man. What are you waiting for?
23:10Calm down. What are you doing?
23:12That was clearly a blatant power.
23:14What did I tell you? What did I tell you?
23:16What's all this shit, then?
23:18He almost broke Kesha's neck in the last game.
23:20It's only fair to get him back for that.
23:22I'm in time. Get your stupid bloody ass over here.
23:25I'm in time.
23:28As McCormack receives medical attention, Ellington has quite rightly been sent on the field.
23:34The tension has dispersed and the mood seems to have calmed down again.
23:37So play where I'm feeling.
23:47If you're looking for all the action, it's over there.
23:51Thanks. But I preferred it when they were wrestling out there.
23:55McCormack was heading for even more of a battering, but the ref quickly got involved.
23:59If she was playing for Eastview, they'd have a greater chance.
24:18Alistair.
24:34I can tell that you're actually a hardcore lacrosse fan.
24:37Oh, yeah. Been pitch side for all the games. Haven't you seen me?
24:41I'm normally a bit busy out there.
24:44Yeah. Beating up your position, I guess.
24:51Sir, should we take a photo if you're watching the match?
24:55It was nice meeting you, Alistair.
25:04Sir, do you have a minute?
25:06You can see that I'm busy, Miss Bell.
25:07It'll only take two minutes, I promise.
25:10I wanted to ask if you could write me a letter of recommendation for my Oxford application.
25:14You've left it very late in the day for this to happen.
25:18You're the best person at this school to write a recommendation letter.
25:20I thought I'd at least see if you had a little time.
25:22We both know you're a very good student. Exemplar, in fact.
25:25But you're not doing enough to earn my recommendation at this time.
25:28Not for Oxford.
25:30Come to think of it, if these last two years I've hardly even been aware of your presence of Maxton
25:35Hall, Miss Bell.
25:36Do you know why that is?
25:38I'm chairing the event committee this year, among other things, with Lin-Wine.
25:41Oh, yes. Right. Right.
25:43How's it going with the welcome party?
25:45The prep is nearly done.
25:48This event is the very first impression that our new students and their parents get of our school
25:52before thousands of pounds are handed over each year to be a student here.
25:56This year we have a few very prominent new students, so it's important that it all goes without a hitch.
26:00I understand that.
26:01If you show that you're a good team leader and everything goes as I wish,
26:05I see no reason why I couldn't produce this letter for you then.
26:12Miss Bell, can you do me a favor?
26:18You're back out of my picture.
26:22Come on, come on, come on!
26:50What were you doing with Alistair?
26:52Nothing.
26:54Why?
26:56I don't know what your idea is, Bell.
26:58And being honest, I don't really care.
27:00Someone like you can't touch people like us.
27:03Because you're a nobody from some backwater hovel.
27:06No connections and even less money.
27:09So do what you want to do.
27:12No!
27:13No!
27:16No!
27:16No!
27:17No!
27:18No!
27:19No!
27:19No!
27:20No!
27:20No!
27:20No!
27:21No!
27:22No!
27:23No!
27:34I don't know.
28:08I don't know.
28:31What do you know about Ruby Bell?
28:34Nothing.
28:35Other than that she's chairing the stupid event committee.
28:38The one the school parties are organized by?
28:44Is Sutton kept quiet?
28:47Yeah.
28:48It's like nothing ever happened, yeah?
28:53It's because it didn't.
29:15I'm not saying it's easy to forgive completely, but I couldn't let it last, and you never grow from that.
29:26So I had to take the space, and finally get away, yeah?
29:35Baby, a beautiful moment, stand in the still of the sun.
29:40Breathe up and take a moment, living for everyone.
29:47The elephant is one of the strongest animals in the world, and that's why the metaphor of the chained elephant
29:54has always fascinated me.
30:01An elephant could easily tear the stake out of the ground that it's chained to.
30:09But no matter how big and strong it is, it's conviction that it is powerless keeps it chained in place.
30:16I'm building something further from me every single day.
30:22People are no different.
30:24Our fears and prejudices keep us from realizing our full potential, from following our dreams.
30:41I am lucky, since I know that there is only a small stake holding me, and I'm working on pulling
30:46it out, little by little, a bit more every year.
30:54I won't let myself be chained to a stake, and certainly not by someone like James Beaufort.
31:36Only this evening stands between me and my recommendation for Oxford, and I'll make sure everything, and I mean everything,
31:44goes smoothly.
31:44I'm quite forgetting how we've danced away in the spring.
31:52No recollection of the song you'd always sing.
31:59So I'm sorry that you miss me, but I've got things to do.
32:09I just can't do that without you.
32:14Yeah, I'd do anything for a lame event.
32:16You know what, James?
32:17Yeah.
32:18Let's go then.
32:20To all my fans!
32:21See ya!
32:36Can I, uh, can I talk to you for a minute?
32:40I'm reverting to you for a minute past.
32:46Oh, what's his name?
32:48Oh, so do you miss me tonight?
32:53Are you feeling rough and bright?
32:57Before I hit the deck, I just thought I'd check
33:01that it's just me in the candlelight.
33:08What you saw before was absolutely unacceptable.
33:17I knew you were secretly into Prudence.
33:21But it's really not what you think.
33:23Miss Welfare and I, I mean, we didn't meet as teacher and student.
33:26We'd met each other elsewhere previously.
33:28Sir, it's nothing to do with me.
33:29What you saw will never happen again, but I want you to know that I'm very sorry to have.
33:35put you in such an uncomfortable situation.
33:42My compliments.
33:45You know, it's exactly how I would attend you.
33:51Thank you, sir.
34:03I am the missile.
34:06I am the fire.
34:10Love is destruction.
34:12This war is mine.
34:14This war is mine.
34:16I am the missile.
34:19I am the fire.
34:22Love is destruction.
34:25This war is mine.
34:27This war is mine.
34:28I am the missile.
34:30I am the fire.
34:36Love is destruction.
35:02This war is mine.
35:04This war is mine.
35:05I am the missile.
35:08I am the fire.
35:09This war is fire.
35:11by theobie, St.
35:12this war is mine.
35:16this war is mine.
35:18I am the missile.
35:22I am the missile.
35:23To be on this war.
35:28Oh my God, thank you.
35:31Oh my God.
35:32Oh my God.
35:40Hey, turn the music off.
35:43Music off!
35:46My heart is ruined.
35:47Oh shit.
35:50Let's go.
35:59Oh, hi Robin.
36:01Is everything okay?
36:01Do you even care that we've all worked our arses off for this special event?
36:04Well, you didn't want a striptease from me.
36:06I assume that one of these guys might be to your particular preference.
36:09If I can't make you keep quiet, Robin, then I'll do everything I can to make sure no one believes
36:14you if you do open your mouth.
36:22Hey, Lexington wants to talk to you.
36:26Both of you.
36:37You have both disappointed me immensely this evening.
36:41As I'm sure you know.
36:45That's more than enough smugness from you, Mr. Beaufort.
36:49Someone saw you with the DJ paying her off.
36:54Oops.
36:56So you've earned yourself a lacrosse team suspension.
37:00And Miss Bell, your letter of recommendation, out of the question.
37:05I would expect you to have an event like this under control as chair of the event committee.
37:10But thanks to Mr. Beaufort's clever little prank, I don't have anything positive to report about your organizational abilities.
37:18Unless, of course, there's something else about this situation I should be aware of.
37:23About you or Mr. Beaufort.
37:26About you or Mr. Beaufort.
37:44No, sir.
37:54I should have done better and I take your guidance very seriously.
37:57So rest assured I'll give the upcoming donor gala full attention to detail.
38:00And then you'll have a chance to form a better opinion about my organizational ability.
38:16Another catastrophe would simply be shut down immediately.
38:20I can assure you that that wouldn't go on.
38:25Not if I'm in charge of it.
38:29If that's true, then Mr. Beaufort can invest his newfound free time in the event committee alongside you, Miss Bell,
38:37to make up for his unwanted intervention.
38:40And both of you, attending to every last detail, will deliver a spectacular event
38:44to repair this school's reputation which you've just solid with your reckless behavior.
38:51Then we'll see about your recommendation, Miss Bell.
39:05I suppose you should be happy.
39:06Amused a little, yeah.
39:08As if I'm going to let someone like you give me instructions.
39:11Because you're a Beaufort man, yeah?
39:13Exactly, yeah.
39:15You can belittle me all you want. I'm not scared, don't worry.
39:20I do a really good job on this committee, and I'm not going to waste my opportunity to go to
39:24Oxford for anyone.
39:27So...
39:30Do what you want to do.
39:37You want a war, Ruby Bell?
39:43You've got one.
39:45I suggest I'll go to questions for you, too.
