00:08You
00:49It could be better, but it could be worse.
00:55What is wrong with the mask you already made?
00:57Absolutely nothing.
00:58It took me three weeks to embroider.
01:01Imported French embroidery thread on Dutchess satin.
01:03It was perfect.
01:05I specifically made it out in the girls dressing room this morning
01:07and it has mysteriously disappeared.
01:09Ten minutes before the ball, of course.
01:11Where are the scissors?
01:12Oh, I left them in the room upstairs.
01:13Alfie, run and get them.
01:14There is no time.
01:29It's her.
01:30It is not finished.
01:31You go.
01:31I will finish.
01:33I know how to sew.
01:35Pray for me that I do not commit murder this evening.
01:54My lady, the carriage is ready out front, your reticles are by the door and Miss Rosamond's
01:59new mask should be finished momentarily.
02:02We have found Rosamond's mask.
02:04Oh.
02:06That is excellent, Miss Rosamond.
02:07It was underneath my dressing table.
02:10Most unusual location for you to have placed it for me.
02:12I do not think Sophie put it there intentionally.
02:14Hush, Posey.
02:15Perhaps you knocked it off your dressing table and did not notice.
02:17Posey!
02:20Mother, perhaps we should pity Sophie.
02:22People become quite senseless when they are envious.
02:24She was clearly attempting to spoil my debut.
02:26Am I not right, Sophie?
02:27That is not true.
02:29One is not meant to make excuses.
02:32When one makes an error, one is meant to apologise.
02:39Forgive me.
02:40I could not hear you.
02:41Forgive me.
02:42Please accept my deepest apologies.
02:48Girls.
03:00Oh, I have just finished.
03:02They are already in the carriage.
03:03Miss Lee found her mask.
03:05Oh.
03:06Well, that's good I suppose.
03:08Well, at least they are gone.
03:10Miss Lee called me envious.
03:12Envious of what?
03:13A rudeness.
03:14Do you know what?
03:15He's right.
03:16I am envious.
03:18I am angry.
03:20Because they will attend the ball tonight and they will not appreciate any of it.
03:23They will come home complaining of something.
03:25Of the decoration being disappointing or the gowns being far inferior to theirs.
03:29Not Miss Posey.
03:30No.
03:30Not poor Posey.
03:31But Lady Penwood.
03:32She will criticise everything.
03:35Can you imagine how beautiful a ball would be?
03:38I would give anything to go to a ball.
03:39Dancing in a beautiful room instead of cleaning it.
03:42Being looked at as if you belong in the room instead of as if you were a part of the
03:45furniture.
03:46Just once.
03:47Just to have that feeling for one glorious night.
03:52What?
03:55You could go tonight.
03:56What?
03:57I cannot go.
04:00Can you imagine?
04:03Lady Penwood would have me drawn and quartered.
04:06Though it is a masquerade ball.
04:09I would be in costume no one would know it was me.
04:11It would feel good to pull the wool over Lady Penwood's eyes.
04:13Exactly.
04:14The way she's treated you all these years.
04:17It is only one night.
04:21Oh but I could not do it.
04:23But you could.
04:24It's only one night.
04:26A glorious night.
04:27All to yourself.
04:29Serving no one.
04:30Being a lady.
04:36We would need to find me a good costume.
04:38I would need to be well disguised.
04:40We do have this.
04:42Beautiful mask.
04:47The nightwear must be pressed and laid out.
04:49The hairbrush is all cleaned.
04:51The bed's changed.
04:51I know how to turn down the bed.
04:53Not to worry.
04:55Everything will be done exactly as you like.
04:57Oh!
04:58Not only can I saw.
05:00I have seen a woman in her shift before.
05:02I can tell many great surprises.
05:04The stable boys have the spare carriage ready out front.
05:13Where did you find that?
05:15I sent them to the attic.
05:16No one ever looks there.
05:17There is a trunk of old gowns up there that belong to the sister of Lord Penwood.
05:20Slightly out of fashion.
05:21But that is no matter.
05:23It's a masquerade.
05:26And I found gloves.
05:27It is beautiful.
05:33And...
05:35Silver shoes to match.
05:39Have they?
05:41Those belong to Lady Penwood.
05:43She certainly cannot wear any of her dingy work shoes.
05:46Would you have a go barefooted?
05:47Lady Penwood would have a proper fit if she knew.
05:50What she notices, the shoes on Sophie.
05:55Lady Penwood has more shoes than I can count.
05:58I doubt she will even notice.
06:01Am I right?
06:04Right.
06:09Very well.
06:11You deserve to go tonight.
06:13You deserve to belong.
06:15It is your birthright, just as much as Miss Lee and Miss Posey.
06:23I can do this.
06:34The dearest gentle reader.
06:37The chase.
06:38The hunt.
06:40The thrill.
06:41The hunt.
06:41It is a fact that all the world is searching for something.
06:45And our dear Tom is no exception.
06:49The idea that I am not on the shelf is plainly fanciful.
06:52The season is wasted.
06:52Some are searching for meaning.
06:55Others, for their better halves.
06:58While others are searching for tranquillity.
07:02Much like Lord and Lady Kilmartin, who have decided to seek respite in their London abode this season.
07:09Your husband has a natural way with children, does he not?
07:14And if you wish to invest in the collieries, they require a deposit at once.
07:17I believe the Viscount was quite keen to mention...
07:19And for the season's most notorious gentleman, Mr. Benedict Bridgerton,
07:24he was last seen arriving fashionably late to Lady Bridgerton's masquerade.
07:29Even the most determined rakes must bow to that most powerful of forces.
07:35Mothers.
07:36This author cannot help but wonder what he is searching for.
07:41But be cautious of searching too hard, dear reader.
07:44For you might not always like what you find.
07:48Sophie Peck!
07:51Where is that infernal girl?
07:53Right here, my lady.
07:54A pair of my shoes are marked and I have not even worn them.
07:58They are marked.
08:00I will make good with them.
08:01You are meant to notice such things, so I do not have to.
08:04You had better make them perfect.
08:07In fact, while you are at it, I should like all my shoes polished and re-stitched.
08:12And Rosamond's collection as well.
08:13We shall want her looking her best for Benedict Bridgerton.
08:16Mum, that is over 100 pairs.
08:18With me other duties, that could take months.
08:20Wonderful. By then you'll become an expert.
08:29I do hope she arrives soon.
08:31Patience, Sophie.
08:32I know, but I cannot wait to meet her.
08:34I will finally have a mother.
08:36I have always wanted one.
08:37And I will have sisters to play with.
08:39And my new mother must be lovely and kind if she is marrying father.
08:45Sophie, this is very important.
08:47You must not call Lord Penwood father in front of the new Lady Penwood.
08:50Why?
08:51You simply must not.
09:00My new wife.
09:02My love.
09:04I am so pleased that you are finally here.
09:07I did not like being apart.
09:10Here are the children.
09:11This is Rosamond.
09:13And Posey.
09:15Hello girls.
09:17Let me introduce you to the servants.
09:20This is our butler, Rumsey.
09:23Herma runs the kitchen.
09:28And this is Miss Timmins, our governess.
09:32And who is this darling girl?
09:35Mrs. Sophie Peck.
09:37My ward.
09:41Just delightful to meet you.
09:44I know you will care for her as your own.
09:50Of course I shall.
09:52She is the picture of great and charm, my lord.
09:54That is pleasing to hear.
10:16Is her ladyship really having you clean every one of her shoes?
10:19And Miss Rosamond's.
10:21While she harps on about how Miss Rosamond is going to ensnare Benedict Bridgerton.
10:25Poor Mr Bridgerton.
10:26If those two want him, not even the Queen's Guard will be able to protect him.
10:30We shall want her looking her best for Mr Bridgerton.
10:34Do I detect jealousy, Miss Peck?
10:37Of Rosamond?
10:38You are not serious.
10:39You've got your back up about something.
10:41I am cleaning a thousand shoes.
10:43My fingers are cramped.
10:44Of course my back is up.
10:45No.
10:45If it was about the shoes, you would be witter, spiteful Sophie.
10:49This is sad, sulky Sophie.
10:52Ever since the ball...
10:55This is about the ball.
10:57It is.
10:58What are you hiding?
11:01Oh my.
11:03You met a gentleman.
11:07I met a gentleman.
11:08Dare I ask his name?
11:10No.
11:13Benedict Bridgerton?
11:14I thought it is.
11:15It is nothing.
11:16It was a moment and it is over.
11:18I will never see him again.
11:21I do not even want to see him again.
11:23When would I ever see him again?
11:25We are forgetting I ever met him.
11:27Is that clear?
11:32Okay.
11:50Should we perhaps discuss what occurred at the masquerade ball?
11:53Yes.
11:55Lady Bridgerton's ball was quite the spectacle, was it not?
11:58Any displays worth revisiting?
12:01Indeed.
12:02Can you believe that Benedict Bridgerton disappeared for the better half of the ball?
12:06We shall need to keep a watchful eye on him when you host your ball.
12:10When I host...
12:12Your Majesty.
12:14Have you forgotten my request?
12:16You will host a ball, will you not?
12:19Have you thought of a theme?
12:21Apologies for the intrusion, Your Majesty.
12:23Lady Baird requests an audience.
12:32Well?
12:33Your Majesty, it appears Lady Baird is in a delicate state.
12:36With your permission, she wishes to be relieved of her duties for her confinement and to return after the birth.
12:43You may take your leave.
12:45But know it will be permanent.
12:48You may withdraw.
12:53The audacity.
12:54No regard for reason or responsibility, let alone the bother to me.
12:59Does one not take one's Queen into consideration when making such decisions?
13:03I'm fortunate for Lady Baird that she has a Queen generous enough to relieve her of her duties without hesitation.
13:09I am known to be exceedingly generous when it is deserved.
13:20Thank you for the game.
13:22It has been quite illuminating.
13:26My sympathies for the loss of Lady Baird.
13:41You see?
13:42Hmm?
13:43They do not even look my way.
13:44No one is interested in me.
13:46Because you've built a reputation of being unapproachable.
13:48That is hardly true.
13:49I'm most amiable.
13:50Then try smiling at one of them.
13:51Oh, no.
13:53Please, no.
13:54If you are so sure they are not interested, then what is the harm?
14:08Oh, good enough.
14:15Mother.
14:16Louise.
14:18My.
14:19You look so handsome.
14:22You sound surprised.
14:22What she means to say is she is surprised to see you out of bed before noon.
14:26In fact, I've come to act as chaperone for my dear sister.
14:30Who, as I hear it, is in need of one as she is decidedly not on the shelf.
14:37Um, Benedict.
14:38Yes?
14:39Please?
14:40Um, I would...
14:42Let's start with Baron Hanson.
14:43Mm-hmm.
14:45You do not mean it.
14:46Whatever this ruse is.
14:48Of course not.
14:50Then what a fine morning how lovely to see you.
14:52I will not make you talk to anyone.
14:53Mm, but you require a favour in return.
14:55I don't need your help.
14:57We must find the owner of this glove.
14:59Why ever do you have a lady's glove?
15:01Because a lady lost it.
15:02I would like to return it to her.
15:04Do not mention it to Mother, by the way.
15:06You know very well you should not be toying with the affections of debutantes,
15:09which you are most certainly trying to do if you do not wish for Mama to know.
15:11I'm doing no such thing.
15:13I simply would like to thank this particular young woman for a genial conversation.
15:18In return, I shall protect you from Mother and her matchmaking reign of terror.
15:24You are often my favourite brother.
15:27How do you wish to begin?
15:32Thank goodness.
15:33That is family.
15:33We do not have to wait in line with all those gossips.
15:35Oh, oh.
15:35They do not come here to gossip.
15:37We need to bring gifts.
15:38And then, conveniently, each happens to remember a little gossip.
15:41Clever.
15:41Oh, trust me, he does not.
15:43I am afraid Colin is out for his monthly engagement with Mr. Finch and Mr. Dankwith,
15:46where they eat all of London.
15:47Ah.
15:47In fact, I am here to see you.
15:49Oh.
15:49Benedict has met a young lady.
15:51Yeah.
15:51I am merely trying to return a glove.
15:53A glove of a lady dressed in silver with whom you disappeared.
15:56Lady Whistledown sees everything Benedict.
15:58Although, I will confess, I did not recognise her.
16:00Who is she?
16:01I do not know.
16:02All I have is this glove.
16:05I thought, since you do see everything...
16:08What do you know about her?
16:11Um...
16:11Um...
16:12Please tell us you asked about her interests, brother.
16:14You did not bore her to death with talk of yourself.
16:16I asked her many questions, but her answers were few.
16:19She...
16:21grew up in England.
16:23She...
16:24prefers deep water.
16:26She, er...
16:27does not know how to dance, which was puzzling.
16:29Oh, and she reads Whistledown.
16:30Well, she has excellent taste, but...
16:32that does not give us much.
16:35Well...
16:36I thought...
16:39I wonder...
16:40if you...
16:42might send a message in Whistledown...
16:43to help me return her glove.
16:46Well...
16:48I will not be able to mention her or her costume in any way.
16:50Why not?
16:51I cannot have been the only one at the ball to notice the two of you.
16:54She was alone on a terrace with a man.
16:56That is bad enough.
16:56What is even worse is that that man is a...
16:58a notorious rake.
17:00How dare you?
17:01I am a lover of pleasure.
17:02A free spirit untrammelled by mere convention.
17:05You're a rake.
17:06Mm-hmm.
17:07Yes.
17:08She will never come forward.
17:09If she did, her reputation will be tarnished.
17:13Then...
17:13mention me.
17:16But say...
17:17that I am looking for someone.
17:20Perhaps that will assure her I am...
17:22more serious.
17:24One hint that you might be interested in courtship and you will be besieged by mothers.
17:28Anna's right.
17:30Once the floodgates are open, you cannot close them.
17:32I can manage a few mamas.
17:36Her Majesty is going to relish this.
17:37I can manage Her Majesty.
17:40I think.
17:41Possibly.
17:42Well, not really, but do it anyway.
17:50Dearest gentle reader, this season, the ton may have a new prize to seek.
17:56The heart of a certain second son.
17:59It seems this free-spirited reveller has been seen regularly strolling Rotten Row,
18:06intent on leaving the bachelor life behind and attending many more balls.
18:35The latest whistle-down, ma'am.
18:40Has this handsome gentleman come out of the cold to join the warmth of society?
18:46Could it be that this rake has reformed?
18:51Is there a marriage-minded mamma or a young lady who would not rejoice at this news?
18:58Rosamond!
19:01Perhaps there is a particular lady whose company he seeks.
19:05This author can only speculate.
19:08She's describing Benedict Bridgerton.
19:11So fair.
19:13I have read every issue of whistle-down.
19:16This is clearly about him.
19:19What if he's looking for you?
19:26Do not be foolish.
19:27You must meet a different young woman at every ball.
19:29This could be about anyone.
19:31Sophie!
19:33Sophie!
19:34Ready Rosamond for Rotten Row.
19:37Perhaps in blue.
19:39You will look exquisite, my dear.
19:55I do not want to.
19:56Did we not make an agreement?
19:58Yes, but the agreement entails you protecting me from suitors, not thrusting me into the lion's dead.
20:02We might have information.
20:03And if mother does not see you speaking to suitors at least once, she will surely enter these.
20:06Is that logical coerfully?
20:08Lord Tass!
20:09Lord Pike!
20:11What a lovely day for a promenade, is it not?
20:13And what a charming relation you have brought on this promenade.
20:22I shall leave you to get better acquaintance.
20:31Lord Tass!
20:33I understand you have a sister.
20:35Does she perhaps not know how to dance?
20:38No.
20:40Or won't he?
20:43Oh.
20:45Mr Bridgerton.
20:46A beautiful day, is it not?
20:48Indeed.
20:53A perfect day for taking the waters, ladies.
20:56Do you not think?
20:57I suppose so.
20:59Though I much prefer to stay on dry land.
21:14I certainly enjoy swim.
21:17Do you?
21:18I do not believe we have met, Miss...
21:22Rosamond Lee.
21:24Why the sudden shift?
21:26I confess, I do not know.
21:29And I am not inquiring for fear of him changing his mind.
21:32Is it not foolish for so many young ladies to flock to just one gentleman?
21:35It is like a gaggle of geese vying for the same piece of bread.
21:38They will all leave hungry.
21:40Many of these young ladies look as if they could use a piece of...
21:42Shh.
21:45What happened?
21:46He was going so well.
21:47He seemed charmed.
21:49Talked about my costume and then he turned away.
21:50Men are fickle.
21:52Keep your spirits up.
21:53We shall solve this yet.
21:56What were your costumes at the masquerade?
21:59I was the swan.
22:00I dressed as Queen Anne.
22:01Oh, what a minute.
22:02Interesting.
22:06There's so many money.
22:08It's good.
22:08It's good.
22:09It's good.
22:11It's good.
22:24It's good.
22:31Yeah.
22:48You're welcome.
22:48Put the kids through it and get started.
22:52Oh, oh...
22:53It's good.
22:53Good to go.
22:54Oh, oh God.
22:54Uh-Ugh.
22:54It's nice.

29:37and then all of a sudden my hands became feet and i was forced to walk across the stage with
29:42my feet
29:42hands
29:43everyone in the audience laughed
29:45certainly you would do the same if you saw someone with hands for feet

32:02and she is not real
32:05yes
32:06tell me more
32:10i have work to do
32:12i have work to do
32:47does that imagination come out in other ways
32:50in the
32:53dressing up
32:54Perhaps?
32:55I loved dressing up.
32:56One time when I was a child...
32:57Before we hear more about that, I would love to hear about the costume you wore for the
33:01Masquerade.
33:02She was a mermaid.
33:04Ah.
33:06So you were not wearing silver?
33:08No, but I wanted to.
33:10Silver and purple for the scales.
33:11But I was told no tale.
33:14Did someone in silver catch your eye at the Masquerade?
33:17I talked to so many people that night, I'm simply trying to recall who's who.
33:21Of course.
33:24So, you two are sisters.
33:29Do you have any cousins or friends of the family who have been staying here?
33:33It is always so nice to have company.
33:35It is only us.
33:37And that is all we need.
33:38Of course.
33:52What was his intention in coming here if not caught you?
33:56Is that a lady's glove?
33:57What is he looking at?
34:00What is he looking at?
34:06What is he looking at?
34:30Grimsley?
34:30Her Majesty is taking her royal nap. I do not have long.
34:33What is wrong? Is it His Majesty the King?
34:36You must come back. Request an audience with Her Majesty. Apologise.
34:40She'll do no such thing. I have nothing to apologise for.
34:44She is gossiping at me, but I fail to gossip back in the right way.
34:47She wishes to speak about Benedict Bridgerton, but my replies are never the right ones.
34:51She will not allow me to clear her chessboard. She refuses to finish the game.
34:55She is Her Majesty. She is always at her best, of course.
34:59She is glorious. But perhaps one might imagine it is possible she might be desponding.
35:06You know you do not need to have something to apologise for.
35:08If Her Majesty needs an apology, one apologises for nothing.
35:12She is our Queen.
35:22I do not much feel like apologising.
35:25And I am certainly not interested in playing chess or gossiping with Her Majesty at present.
35:30Let her be entertained by her ladies-in-waiting.
35:34Lady Danbury, there was a time when you were her lady-in-waiting.
35:38It was different. She was different.
35:43You have been witnessed.
35:45His Majesty is...
35:47You were there then.
35:50She will not be close to these ladies now, and she will not even try to replace Lady Baird.
35:54You know that, and you know why.
35:57The chess match must not remain unfinished.
36:02She is struggling.
36:04In your absence.
36:07In the absence of her friend.
36:10Her only friend.
36:12Her world is getting smaller.
36:16I must return.
36:18Please, Lady Danbury.
36:38Lady Penwood, may I help you?
36:44I realised I never expressed my gratitude for all your hard work with my shoes.
36:53I should like to reward you.
36:56Would you try these on?
36:57I know how much you love the little luxuries of society.
37:01No, thank you, my lady.
37:03It was not a suggestion.
37:04I have other duties to attend to, ma'am.
37:05You are relieved from other duties until you honour this request.
37:08Put them on.
37:10Now.
37:30A perfect fit.
37:32I'm as surprised as you.
37:35Imagine my surprise when I discovered that you know how to dress yourself respectively.
37:39In fact, the shoes did not clash at all with the silver dress I found under your mattress.
37:45It was you.
37:46You marked my silver shoes.
37:48You slipped into the masquerade ball.
37:50Do not insult me by denying it.
37:55Then, get it over with and punish me.
37:58If you want all the silver in the house polished, I shall do it.
38:00If you want me on my hands and knees scrubbing floors, very well.
38:03There is no punishment that fits the crime of going to a ball and impersonating nobility.
38:08Of stealing my shoes, those gloves and that dress from my home.
38:12But it's my home as well.
38:14How dare you?
38:15This was never your home.
38:17I have suffered having you under my roof all these years.
38:19And you repay me with this duplicity.
38:21How have you suffered?
38:23I have served you every whim all these years, without wages, without complaint.
38:26I have provided you with protection.
38:28Far more than you would have found on your own.
38:30And clearly far more than you have ever deserved.
38:32Then why?
38:33Out of the goodness of the heart you do not possess.
38:36It is clear you have despised me from the beginning.
38:37So tell me, why have you kept me here if I have been such a burden to you?
38:41Why?
38:42Why?
38:42Why?
38:43Why?
38:44Why?
38:50You could have put me on the street as soon as father died.
38:52Do not call him.
38:55You were his error.
38:57But my mistake was attempting to help someone beyond hope.
39:04So perhaps you are right.
39:07I should have put you out on the street.
39:13You are dismissed.
39:15And you will never work again in Mayfair.
39:18I will make sure of it.
39:22I have been done.
39:26You forget yourself.
39:28And your place.
40:09Emma.
40:10It is our fault.
40:12We never should have sent you to that ball.
40:14He did not send me.
40:16I sent myself.
40:18All you and Alfie did was help make my dream come true.
40:20We made a collection.
40:23It is not much, but it should at least get you a week at a boarding house.
40:34Do not say anything.
40:36I want to stay angry.
40:43Do not open it now.
40:44It is not much, but perhaps you could sell it.
40:46Goodbye, Sophie.
40:47Do not forget yourself.
40:51Such a shame that you could not perform your duties.
40:54Good luck.
41:32The shoe clips.
41:34Posey.
41:35Good luck.
42:04So...
42:18I have come to apologize, Your Majesty.
42:25My apologies.
42:28You may go.
42:41Your move.
42:50Why do you wish to leave me?
42:52As I said, I desire a return to my homeland and I...
42:56No.
42:57Why do you wish to leave me?
42:59Your Majesty.
43:00You cannot go.
43:01I will not allow it.
43:03I know this may be difficult for you.
43:04You cannot.
43:04You will not.
43:06Well, let us be reasonable.
43:07No.
43:08You will not go.
43:10I forbid it.
43:11You cannot forbid me.
43:12I can.
43:13You cannot.
43:14I can.
43:14You cannot.
43:15Not if we are friends.
43:17I am your queen.
43:20So I am merely your subject.
43:23You are my subject.
43:29I understand.
43:36My deepest apologies for forgetting my position.
43:47I shall go.
43:55I am sorry.
44:01I did not mean it.
44:03I was sorry.
44:06My apologies.
44:11All is well.
44:14All is well.
44:14Your Majesty.
44:15All is well.
44:18Agatha.
44:19You cannot leave me here all alone.
44:23What happens when he dies?
44:32I am here.
44:35You need not worry.
44:37I am here.
44:52I am here.
44:53I am here.
44:54I am here.
44:55Hollow.
44:57Diamonds are weighty.
44:58These are paste.
44:59They are counterfeit.
45:00Are you certain?
45:02I need enough money to get out of London.
45:04I will take your necklace for a pretty sum, no?
45:08Which is not for sale.
45:10Well, that's all I can offer you, then.
45:13Might be enough to get you on a mail, coach.
45:41Care for company?
45:45Have you been displeased with me?
45:51I've not seen much anymore.
45:52It took you long enough to notice.
45:54Louise.
45:54You realize you were cast out of the clubhouse?
45:57Was I in a club?
45:58We were.
46:01I thought we would be unyielding together with regard to marriage,
46:04but you have crossed over to the other side.
46:07Oh, I am not getting married any time soon.
46:09But you wanted to.
46:11To the glove lady.
46:14I thought it could be possible.
46:18But she clearly did not agree.
46:21Why would she?
46:24Why would she not?
46:25You and I both know I am not the Bridgerton
46:28anyone should give their heart to.
46:30The unserious one.
46:32The rake.
46:33The free spirit.
46:40You may need to let me back into our clubhouse.
46:43Oh, brother.
46:44Do not fret.
46:45I am only, um...
46:48I think I need to clear my head.
46:49I think I should go out.
46:51Oh, I sense a drinking bout.
46:53Please!
46:54Do not leave me in Mama's hands.
46:58Our mother might surprise you.
47:00I notice ayn.
47:19One, two, three, four, six.
47:21I think that's a mercy.
47:24I will.
47:27I like us.
47:28I like you.
47:28I like us.
48:07Excuse me, sir.
48:08Oh, she's too fast for you, Henry.
48:10I shall get her by the end of the night.
48:21Bridgerton.
48:23Cavendish finally dragged us both out to one of his parties.
48:26It seems that way.
48:27Where are we?
48:28Lord and Lady Cavendish's country estate.
48:30They are in London for the weekend.
48:32Phil is on a spree.
48:34I've not seen you in our circle lately.
48:37No.
48:39Do you remember Virginia?
48:41The actress?
48:43I believe so.
48:45We have fallen in love.
48:48She has agreed to be my mistress.
48:51Because one woman was not enough for you.
48:54Well, there must be someone out there for you.
48:56Miss Cox.
48:58Bridgerton.
48:59If you do not play to bet this round,
49:01we will be forced to wait for which one of you can be pushed into the lake
49:04with your trousers down.
49:24You can't bend a little.
49:26You're fat is solemn for such a pretty thing.
49:28I do not indulge, my lord.
49:29Surely your kitchen duties can wait.
49:33Run.
49:33Look yourself in your room.
49:35You bitch!
49:36I shall scream if you touch me.
49:37Oh, we do like it when they scream.
49:43What's wrong, Cavender?
49:44Don't want to play any longer.
49:54Enough!
49:55Enough!
49:56She's only a maid!
49:58Apologize to her!
50:01I...
50:03I apologize.
50:04I apologize.
50:06Treat a woman in such a manner ever again.
50:08An old person in such a way never return to society.
50:12Do you understand?
50:16Yes.
50:22It goes for you as well.
50:24We shall never touch her.
50:27Because she no longer works here.
50:42Mr. Bridgerton.
50:47Forgive me, but do we know one another?
50:54Did you work for a household I visited, or...?
51:01No, we do not know each other.
51:03Then how do you know my name?
51:05I...
51:05heard it.
51:08Earlier, someone said it.
51:10Excuse me, sir.
51:23I cannot believe he is gone.
51:28It will not be the same without him.
51:35I am so sorry, Sophie.
51:43I am so sorry, Sophie.
51:43I only heard from the solicitor this morning.
51:47The late Lord Penwood did not include you in his will.
51:51You would not do that to me.
51:54He promised he would always care for me.
51:57Yes.
51:58Because he was a kind man who could not stand being cruel.
52:01But the truth is that his love rests in his legacy, and there is no mention of you in the
52:05will.
52:08No, no, my father loved me.
52:13Yes, I can understand why you believe that.
52:18Your mother allowed herself to believe the same.
52:22Lord Penwood never told you the truth.
52:26See, you left both of us in the dark about certain things.
52:31Your mother was a maid.
52:33A maid who let herself become a mistress.
52:37She died when you were very small.
52:39With no title, no money, no dignity, and no husband.
52:46She was not a part of Lord Penwood's legacy either.
52:54Do not worry.
52:57I will take care of you now.
53:00I will feed you, clothe you, and keep a roof over your head.
53:06You will work as a maid.
53:11But I am the daughter of a nobleman.
53:14You are illegitimate.
53:16Being a maid is the best you can hope for.
53:20It will make you invisible.
53:22Trust me.
53:24You will be protected this way.
53:29As long as you do not allow yourself to dream of more than your station.
53:34As your mother did.
53:55Are you all right?
53:58Where are you going?
53:59Away, sir.
54:00I must find other work.
54:01It is the middle of the night in the middle of the country.
54:03Yes, sir.
54:04And the nearest town where I might find employment is several hours away, so I must start walking.
54:08But let me take you.
54:09I am not going anywhere with you, Mr. Bridgerton.
54:11He lost me in my position, the very thing I need to survive.
54:14But you are clearly better off without that position.
54:16Mr. Cavanagh's parents were returning in the morning.
54:18I only had to make it through the night.
54:19What about when his parents went away again?
54:21Did you mean always to be on your guard?
54:23That is no way to live.
54:25And do you believe I am afforded that choice?
54:28Good night, sir.
54:30I will find another position for you in London.
54:33Somewhere safe.
54:34I have already tried that.
54:35Eh, I have my ways.
54:38I promise.
54:42Please, you cannot walk in the dark.
54:43It is unsafe.
54:48I assure you I will not lay a hand on you.
54:52Unlike Cavender, I was raised to respect maids.
54:54I shall not even look at you.
55:08Dearest gentle reader, seems this column's favorite second son was whisked to the countryside this week,
55:16seemingly concluding the search for his mystery lady.
55:21Are you certain we've not met?
55:27How could we have, sir?
55:30I am only a maid.
55:32I am only a maid.
55:42Hearts across Mayfair are surely shattered indeed.
55:47This author hopes that in his retreat, our reveler will find whatever it is he truly seeks.
55:54Only time will tell.
56:05Withoutence Until
56:07The Anne of Trance
