Short filmTranscript
00:00:04Today is my sister's wedding day, Jane's marrying the Earl of Windhealth, our debts will be cleared, father's honor restored.
00:00:35It's Elizabeth! This was just found in the bride's dressing room!
00:00:48Liz, please forgive me. I can't do this, I won't be traded off to some man. I'm so sorry it
00:00:53had to be you who found this. Don't come looking for me.
00:00:56Jane. Jane, do you know that if you run away from your wedding with the Earl of Windick, the Fenwick
00:01:03family will be ruined completely?
00:01:16The Fenwicks were once a distinguished family, before Sir Reginald ruined it.
00:01:20Indeed. If not for some old favor the Fenwicks once did the late Earl, it's hard to imagine this match
00:01:25ever being considered at all.
00:01:41Miss, Mr. Vale has come to hurry things along twice already.
00:01:47I know.
00:01:50Miss, you can't go in like this.
00:01:52There's no time.
00:01:53Tell it.
00:02:11It's pretty cool.
00:02:11Do you thinkрас put on a job today?
00:02:12Yes.
00:02:12Does it work around some black of his birthday leaves?
00:02:23I've worked up with some black of his birthday, the Pink Sun 결ade.
00:02:33That is not Jane Fenwick. That's the younger sister.
00:02:36The younger sister? But she's...
00:02:38The illegitimate one, I should think.
00:02:40Good Lord, what an insult to the honour of the House of Wyndham.
00:02:47Why, Elizabeth? Why would you put her in Jane's place?
00:02:51How could you replace my legitimate daughter and have Elizabeth marry the Earl instead?
00:02:56How dare you!
00:02:58Regina, please. Not here. People will see.
00:03:02Miss Fenwick.
00:03:04Yes, my lord.
00:03:05You are not Miss Jane Fenwick.
00:03:09Yes, my lord. I am her sister.
00:03:12I owe you an explanation and I fully intend to give you one.
00:03:17My lord, I know this isn't what you agreed to.
00:03:19I have no right to ask anything of you, but...
00:03:26Marry me. Please, I'm begging you.
00:03:35Ladies and gentlemen, I thank you for your attendance this morning.
00:03:40It is my honour to present to you...
00:03:44My bride.
00:03:57On the night of my sister's wedding,
00:04:00I became a countess.
00:04:15Where is Lord Edward?
00:04:16His lordship was called away to London on urgent business.
00:04:19You may move to Thormut later today.
00:04:26He didn't even hear my explanation.
00:04:29He left without signing the marriage papers.
00:04:33Perhaps he never meant to sign them at all.
00:04:36Is this some kind of punishment?
00:04:38For taking my sister's place?
00:04:58I don't know.
00:05:11None of us attended, but I've heard every detail.
00:05:15They say the sister ran off, and the younger one took her place.
00:05:19Showed up in riding clothes, no less.
00:05:21You do keep well informed, Dorothea.
00:05:23Tell me, was she truly in riding clothes?
00:05:26Mrs. Milsom's daughter was sitting in the front rows.
00:05:28She said when the cloak fell, the entire church went silent for a full five seconds.
00:05:32Five seconds?
00:05:33When was the last time you managed that?
00:05:35I've never had the pleasure of causing such a spectacle.
00:05:38Poor Earl.
00:05:39Poor?
00:05:40I don't think so.
00:05:41He doesn't do anything out of pity.
00:05:42He has his reasons.
00:05:44A piece of Fenwick land, an old debt, something of that sort.
00:05:47As for the girl, I'd wager she's some wild little country girl.
00:05:50Hard carely fit for society.
00:05:52Likely doesn't even know her manners.
00:05:59Who is that over there?
00:06:01A gardener, or one of the maids.
00:06:04Just look at the state of her.
00:06:06About that level, I'd say.
00:06:08Edward's new wife can't be much better.
00:06:11You?
00:06:11The one picking strawberries.
00:06:13Come here.
00:06:19Are you speaking to me?
00:06:21Of course.
00:06:22Who else could I be speaking to?
00:06:24Who?
00:06:25Who?
00:06:50Oh, how clumsy.
00:06:57Lady Winfond, your tea is ready.
00:06:59The housekeeper says there are new letters for your attention.
00:07:02If you would come with me.
00:07:11You're Edward's new wife?
00:07:22My lady.
00:07:26That's my girl.
00:07:29My lord.
00:07:33Tell Lady Windward that I...
00:07:35Wait.
00:07:40I'll give this to Lady Windward.
00:07:43And...
00:07:44I will talk to you, sir.
00:07:46Yes, my lord.
00:07:54Please excuse me.
00:08:01You saw that, didn't you?
00:08:02The way she carried herself.
00:08:03Deliberate.
00:08:04Every bit of it.
00:08:05Pretending to be a servant just to make fools of us.
00:08:07Yes.
00:08:08Very deliberate.
00:08:09Married in riding clothes.
00:08:11Picking strawberries herself.
00:08:12Hair in that state.
00:08:14What?
00:08:14On earth has Edward brought help?
00:08:16What, indeed.
00:08:18I am curious how you intend to finish that sentence, Dorothea.
00:08:21Who do you think you are?
00:08:22A country girl who stumbled into a title through a farzical wedding?
00:08:26What right do you have?
00:08:28Today you sit in my garden.
00:08:29At my table.
00:08:30Drinking tea you bought yourself.
00:08:31And you didn't soon announce your arrival.
00:08:33If you know your cousin as you say you do, you'd know he dislikes being disturbed.
00:08:37Next time, send word ahead.
00:08:38I'll have tea prepared.
00:08:39Properly hot, not scolding.
00:08:42My lady.
00:08:43The Earl will be arriving shortly.
00:08:45He asks that you come out to receive him.
00:08:49Is my cousin back?
00:08:50I haven't seen him in ages.
00:08:52I'll go greet him as well.
00:08:54Well, Lady Dorothea, Lord Edward, has made it clear that now that he is married, all visitors are to be
00:09:00received only with Lady Winewield's consent.
00:09:12Please lead the way.
00:09:13My apologies, my lady.
00:09:15His lordship has been called away again.
00:09:18He did, however, leave strict instructions that you are not to be disturbed.
00:09:21This was just delivered for you.
00:09:30Word has it his trip to London had less to do with business and more to do with rekindling an
00:09:34old flame.
00:09:35Cecilia Marlott, his mother's goddaughter.
00:09:37They were raised together at Thornwood, apparently.
00:09:42What happened after?
00:09:44She married an old Duke in Wales.
00:09:47Poor girl.
00:09:48You feel sorry for her?
00:09:50Her husband just died.
00:09:52She's inherited a fortune.
00:09:55Who knows?
00:09:56She might come back.
00:09:57You'd better secure Lord Edward's affections while you can.
00:10:01I have not seen him since our wedding.
00:10:03What?
00:10:03How could that possibly be?
00:10:05It was wrong of me to take my sister's place and marry him that day.
00:10:09I never thought beyond that.
00:10:11Oh, my dear.
00:10:13What a cruel twist of fate.
00:10:15You were meant to go to London to study.
00:10:17And now you're trapped in this cold, dreadful place.
00:10:20So his affections were already given elsewhere.
00:10:23And I've only trapped him here.
00:10:32After all, what is there between Lord Edward and me but a signature in the parish register?
00:10:37A tranquil life that suits me well enough.
00:10:41So cold.
00:10:42So cold.
00:10:49Elizabeth, consider this my return for the insult.
00:10:52Enjoy finding your way across Thornwood with nothing on.
00:11:09Oh, no.
00:11:11Oh, no.
00:11:12Oh, no.
00:11:12Oh, no.
00:11:25The Countess of Wyndham
00:11:25Who's there?
00:11:31Stop! Stop right there!
00:11:33I am the Countess of Wyndham. I command you to stop.
00:11:38You have no idea what it means to offend the Countess of Wyndham.
00:11:50My Lord, this is... I can explain.
00:11:54Please do not.
00:11:58You may... you may turn around now.
00:12:01I will.
00:12:06My Lord! This is entirely unnecessary. I assure you, I am quite capable of...
00:12:12You are barefoot on Flint. Kindly be still.
00:12:22My Lord.
00:12:24I am here.
00:12:26I still owe you an explanation. Are you willing to hear it now?
00:12:32As you can see, I am not otherwise occupied.
00:12:37I took my sister's place and married you that day because...
00:12:40Because I wanted my mother to stop being beaten.
00:12:44I see.
00:12:48You didn't need to do any of this.
00:12:51The moment you said I do at that altar, you fulfilled the agreement.
00:12:54You owe me nothing more.
00:12:56So this is all just an agreement to you? Nothing more?
00:12:59Is it not?
00:13:00I don't make a habit of saying things I don't mean, Elizabeth.
00:13:07That's the first time he's said my name.
00:13:09I understand, my Lord.
00:13:10Call me Edward.
00:13:11I've married you.
00:13:13You're my wife.
00:13:14You hold all the rights of the Countess of Thornworth, including the right to know your husband.
00:13:31Cecilia.
00:13:33Cecilia Marlow.
00:13:35The girl Edward grew up with.
00:13:40Milo...
00:13:41Edward.
00:13:42Sit down.
00:13:45May I ask you a question?
00:13:47Please do.
00:13:49Is there someone else you care for?
00:13:52In London, perhaps?
00:13:57Are you angry with me for leaving right after the wedding?
00:14:00Not in the least.
00:14:01I only mean to say...
00:14:03I've no objection to any other attachments you may have.
00:14:06This marriage serves both our families.
00:14:09I have no wish to be a petty, jealous Countess.
00:14:12And if I were to tell you there is no such person, would you believe me?
00:14:18I...
00:14:18Yes.
00:14:19I believe I would.
00:14:31Elizabeth, you are the only Lady Windorf.
00:14:34I should like, if you're willing, to have a true marriage.
00:14:40In every sense.
00:14:43In every sense.
00:14:45Is he asking me to bear an heir for the Wyndham Line?
00:14:49Come in.
00:14:53It is late.
00:14:55Yes.
00:15:06Elizabeth.
00:15:07Yes.
00:15:10You are frightened.
00:15:13I'm not.
00:15:14I mean, it would be entirely reasonable for you to...
00:15:16Elizabeth.
00:15:20I will not require anything of you tonight.
00:15:23I beg your pardon.
00:15:24You heard me.
00:15:26But...
00:15:27It is...
00:15:27It is your right.
00:15:29I am aware of what the law allows me.
00:15:32But that isn't the measure I intend to follow.
00:15:37Good night, Elizabeth.
00:15:40Does he not want me?
00:15:45Good night.
00:15:46Good night, Elizabeth.
00:16:10Edward.
00:16:18This isn't helpful.
00:16:20It was awful.
00:16:21I was.
00:16:30Oh.
00:16:35I am.
00:16:36I am.
00:16:36I am.
00:16:38I am.
00:16:42I am.
00:16:45Oh.
00:16:48That...
00:16:49I am.
00:17:05God, how could I dream something like that about him?
00:17:08I must be out of my mind.
00:17:10My lady, breakfast is ready.
00:17:14Coming!
00:17:29I was unsure of your preferences, so I asked the cook to prepare a variety.
00:17:38He arranged all of this. What does he take me for?
00:17:41It would appear that his lordship is determined to keep you abundantly supplied.
00:17:54I shall do my best to return in time for the gathering at Whitmore this evening.
00:18:07Lady Wyndham, how lovely to find you here.
00:18:13And all on your own.
00:18:16Rupert, you know Lady Wyndham, I believe.
00:18:18Miss Fenwick.
00:18:21My apologies, Lady Winford. The title still takes one by surprise, I must admit.
00:18:27Good evening, Miss Vane.
00:18:28Mr. Bellamy.
00:18:30Rupert and I have some happy news.
00:18:32We're to be formally engaged at the McEelness Hall.
00:18:35Dorothea was gracious enough to accept me.
00:18:38Though, I suspect she rather enjoys making me wait.
00:18:41Our union, of course, has been rather more conventional.
00:18:45Years of acquaintance, shared society, a genuine understanding of one another's character.
00:18:51How refreshing that some marriages may still be arranged so expeditiously.
00:18:57My lady, a message for you.
00:19:07Cannot return to Thornwith before midnight.
00:19:10Enjoy the party.
00:19:15Another entire evening to yourself.
00:19:18One cannot help but wonder, had you known, why bother to attend at all?
00:19:23Lord Wyndham chose to marry me, Dorothea.
00:19:26I've never felt the need to examine his reasons too closely.
00:19:30Come, Rupert.
00:19:31It's been ages since I last danced.
00:19:34You must indulge me this evening.
00:19:52Lady Wyndham, what a fortunate coincidence.
00:19:55Mr. Bellman, I assume your fiancé is inside?
00:19:58Ah, yes.
00:19:59I stepped out for some air and seemed to have lost my way.
00:20:03You look very well, Lady Winford.
00:20:05Marriage suits you.
00:20:06I believe I should return home.
00:20:07No need to hurry.
00:20:08It's a fine night.
00:20:09That's enough, Mr. Bellman.
00:20:11Come now, Elizabeth.
00:20:12A woman as young as you, as lovely as you, deserves far more than a cold bed and a husband.
00:20:19That's enough, Mr. Bellamy.
00:20:22I mean it kindly.
00:20:34Good heavens, how did I end up here?
00:20:37My lady, I'm coming.
00:20:51Lady Wyndham, you are going the wrong way.
00:20:54Allow me to show you out.
00:21:03Then let me be plain, Mr. Bellamy.
00:21:06Leave these grounds at once.
00:21:10And who exactly is meant to make them?
00:21:21There is no need to be alarmed.
00:21:24I only wish to talk.
00:21:25Then speak from where you stand.
00:21:30My dear.
00:21:35Stop!
00:21:39What do you think you're doing?
00:21:43Dorothea, you must forgive me.
00:21:44I was only trying to remove myself from a most uncomfortable situation.
00:21:48Lady Wyndham sought me out.
00:21:49Elizabeth!
00:21:50How dare you try and scare my fiancé at a gathering like this?
00:21:53That is not...
00:21:54I mean no disrespect, but I am a man of honour and I think it best to be plain.
00:21:58Good lord.
00:21:59Did she really try to seduce Lady Dorothea's fiancé?
00:22:04I've long suspected she wasn't quite respectable.
00:22:08I shall inform Lord Edward at once he'll have you turned out of Thornwood without hesitation.
00:22:12Now, apologize to my fiancé.
00:22:14At once.
00:22:16Miss Vane, you will address me correctly.
00:22:18Or you will not address me at all.
00:22:20You are not worth the courtesy.
00:22:37My lord.
00:22:38Thank god you're here.
00:22:40Lady Winford approached Rupert herself.
00:22:43We were only trying to...
00:22:44So when did he arrive?
00:22:45How much did he hear?
00:22:46Does he believe them?
00:22:47Are you hurt?
00:22:54Edward.
00:23:03My apologies.
00:23:05I seem to have arrived a moment too late.
00:23:08Good lord.
00:23:10Has Lord Wyndham really ruined a hundred-year-old young maze?
00:23:14For a wife of such low birth.
00:23:20Let every person here who has dishonored my wife hear me.
00:23:24Before this night is over, you will regret it.
00:23:27Yes, my lord!
00:23:28Edward!
00:23:29My lord!
00:23:31I am your cousin!
00:23:32You cannot treat me like this!
00:23:34If you mean to say you're my mother's cousin's granddaughter, I have over fifty others just like you.
00:23:47What on earth possessed you to insult the countess of Wyndham?
00:23:52You wretched boy!
00:23:53I paid off your gambling seats with the Earl's own money!
00:23:57How dare you make yourself a nuisance before him and his wife!
00:24:03You have endured enough.
00:24:05Home awaits us.
00:24:10Edward, you must know.
00:24:11I did not seek Mr. Bellarmine out.
00:24:13I know. I know precisely what kind of man he is.
00:24:16I believe you, Elizabeth.
00:24:18We have been married for a few days now.
00:24:21We have.
00:24:23And I find I know remarkably little about you.
00:24:26I believe it goes both ways.
00:24:28Perhaps this presents an opportunity to remedy that.
00:24:31We might begin with a kiss.
00:24:35He's asking to kiss me.
00:24:37On horseback.
00:24:38Out in the open in the middle of the night.
00:24:40God knows how long I've waited for this moment.
00:24:43You have my permission.
00:25:01It's all right.
00:25:03He's settled now.
00:25:09We're home.
00:25:13My lord.
00:25:14My lady.
00:25:22I'll see you shortly, Elizabeth.
00:25:25Shortly?
00:25:26What does he mean, shortly?
00:25:28Tonight?
00:25:29I thought I had rather expected.
00:25:31I seem to have expected it more than I realised.
00:25:33Yes.
00:25:33Shortly then.
00:25:49Of course.
00:25:50Of all nights, it would be this one.
00:26:01Come in.
00:26:05There's something I must tell you.
00:26:07It concerns a domestic matter.
00:26:12I see.
00:26:16Does he?
00:26:17Does he truly?
00:26:18Please, God.
00:26:20Let him understand without making me say it outright.
00:26:23Come.
00:26:34No.
00:26:36Not like this.
00:26:38How are you feeling?
00:26:41Rather better, thank you.
00:26:43Forgive me.
00:26:44Elizabeth.
00:26:45Yes?
00:26:45Stop apologising.
00:26:47Yes, very well.
00:26:51Elizabeth.
00:27:00Yes, very well.
00:27:19Elizabeth.
00:27:20Yes, very well.
00:27:22Elizabeth.
00:27:31He's gone
00:27:32Of course he's gone
00:27:34I failed him last night
00:27:37Come in
00:28:01Is something wrong?
00:28:04No, no, nothing
00:28:10I wasn't certain of your preference this morning
00:28:12Mrs. Hilda suggested something warm
00:28:14There's chocolate
00:28:15If you'd prefer it to tea
00:28:38You have
00:28:44This hand is still warm
00:28:49I thought we might out to Ravenscurred Park before week's end
00:28:54My mother has expressed a wish to receive you
00:28:58Yes
00:28:59I should like it that very much
00:29:04I should propose
00:29:07Fridays, perhaps
00:29:08For the fulfilment of our marital obligations
00:29:15Yes
00:29:16Friday would suit me perfectly well
00:29:20I feel quite confident I shall be
00:29:23Equal to my obligations by next Friday
00:29:25I feel quite confident I shall be
00:30:05Go on, Vale will see you in, I shall be long
00:30:12Of course
00:30:37Flee
00:30:52That's Edward's mother
00:30:54She looks so young to find
00:30:59Lady Adelaine, forgive the intrusion, I am
00:31:13Lady Wyndon
00:31:16I had wondered when we should meet
00:31:18I am Cecilia
00:31:20Lady Adelaine was called away unexpectedly
00:31:24She asked me to receive you in her place
00:31:26That's her
00:31:28Cecilia Marlowe
00:31:29Lady Adelaine's goddaughter
00:31:32The woman Edward wants to laugh at her
00:31:37Your grace, the pleasure is mine
00:31:39Please, none of that
00:31:41We're practically family now
00:31:42Adelaine will be back shortly
00:31:44In the meantime, Georgina, Edward's younger sister
00:31:46Is in the South Garden, shall we?
00:31:48Lady Adelaide summoned me
00:31:49Yet she's here
00:31:50Was she hoping Edward would meet with her instead?
00:31:59She carries herself as if she owns the place
00:32:15So you've finally emerged from your greenhouse, sissy
00:32:19After all these years in London
00:32:20Let's see whether your aim has suffered
00:32:23I've been waiting here for our guest
00:32:25As my mother asked
00:32:26Elizabeth, this is Georgiana
00:32:28We call her Georgie
00:32:28Georgie, this is Elizabeth
00:32:29Ah, the new Lady Wyndham
00:32:32And what do you do for amusement?
00:32:34I read, I write
00:32:35I am sure Lady Wyndham has many other accomplishments, Georgie
00:32:38Of course she does
00:32:39Most people do when they can't shoot
00:32:40No offence, Elizabeth
00:32:42It simply requires a certain constitution
00:32:45Not everyone has it
00:32:47Perhaps Lady Wyndham would care to try
00:32:49It is only fair to offer
00:32:50Oh, by all means
00:32:51Bring another gun
00:32:55A gun for beginners
00:32:58Do you know your way around guns?
00:33:01Elizabeth, you needn't oblige
00:33:04Georgie is only teasing
00:33:05You can watch if you prefer
00:33:17Well
00:33:21You had three
00:33:21I shall not be greedy
00:33:36Mother
00:33:36Where on earth did you find her?
00:33:39She found me
00:33:41I like her
00:33:44So do I
00:33:51Come in
00:33:57My mother asked me to convey her apologies
00:34:01She had no intention of neglecting you today
00:34:03I understand
00:34:04Georgiana and the Duchess of Ravensbrow
00:34:06Made the afternoon quite agreeable
00:34:11It's Friday
00:34:12So it is
00:34:13I must admit
00:34:16I am not entirely certain how one is meant to begin
00:34:18Nor am I
00:34:24I should warn you
00:34:25There are rather a great many hooks
00:34:26Twenty-three
00:34:31I see
00:34:46I confess I don't quite know
00:34:48What
00:34:50I meant to do with my
00:34:52Elizabeth
00:34:54You are not supposed to do anything
00:35:04The desk
00:35:05I thought you might find it easier
00:35:07To begin with
00:35:10I did not realize how warm his hands would feel
00:35:22Breathe
00:35:23Breathe
00:35:25You are going to suffocate yourself
00:35:34Are you ready?
00:35:35Aye
00:35:40I'll take that as a yes
00:35:43Let's begin
00:35:45Let's begin
00:35:46Let's begin
00:35:47Let's begin
00:36:28All right
00:36:28You absolutely must tell me everything
00:36:33I've no idea what you mean
00:36:34Elizabeth Wynwen
00:36:35Nave Fenwork
00:36:37You arrived at my door this morning
00:36:39Wearing the very expression of a woman
00:36:41Who has just discovered something rather surprising about the world
00:36:45Was it?
00:36:46Was it Friday?
00:36:49You are incorrible
00:36:51I am your oldest friend and I deserve details
00:36:53Was he?
00:36:54He was
00:36:56Considerate
00:36:58Extraordinary so
00:37:00How?
00:37:01How?
00:37:01He made quite certain that I was comfortable
00:37:06Before anything else
00:37:08Several times in fact
00:37:11Good lord
00:37:12That is all I shall say on the subject
00:37:13And afterward
00:37:14In the morning
00:37:18He said come back to bed
00:37:21As though I'd been there all along
00:37:24Only meant to return
00:37:26He held my hand
00:37:30Lizzie
00:37:32Don't
00:37:33You like him
00:37:36I am beginning to think I might
00:37:44We're stuck in the mud
00:37:55We'll need to push from the left
00:37:56Wedge something under the wheel first
00:37:59There's a plank in the ditch
00:38:02Perhaps we ought to wait for someone to pass by
00:38:15Lizzie
00:38:16How can I pass you?
00:38:29Same as ever
00:38:31Still finding trouble
00:38:32Still finding trouble on a perfectly straight road
00:38:33The road found me
00:38:35I was perfectly innocent
00:38:38Of course you were
00:38:39You always were
00:38:42Edgar Lemmonds
00:38:43A distant son
00:38:45The summer I was 14
00:38:46He taught me to sketch on the crumbling mill wall
00:38:48Charcoal everywhere
00:38:49My mother spent three days scrubbing my dress clean
00:38:52Then he left for Italy
00:38:55Is that Edgar?
00:38:58I thought he was still in Italy
00:39:08I am Lady Winford now, Mr. Lennox
00:39:10I trust you will do me the kindness of remembering it
00:39:13Forgive me, I had not heard of the marriage
00:39:16I hope you are well, Lady Wind
00:39:17I am, thank you
00:39:19Give my regards to Lord Wyndove
00:39:30Six years without a word
00:39:32And now he returns at just this moment
00:39:33He didn't know, Harriet
00:39:35Perhaps not
00:39:36Lord Wyndare is worth ten of him
00:39:37You know that, don't you?
00:39:41Come
00:39:41The road is clear now
00:39:49She was smiling at him, did you see?
00:39:51A married woman smiling at a man like that
00:39:53Out in the open road
00:39:54She stepped away from him, Georgie
00:39:56That much was plain enough
00:39:57I shall tell Edward
00:39:58I shall tell him exactly what I saw
00:40:00And he will
00:40:01Do as you think best, my dear
00:40:03You know your brother better than I do
00:40:13Edward, there's something I must tell you
00:40:19It concerns your wife
00:40:21Good morning to you too, Georgina
00:40:23I was riding this morning, along the north road
00:40:26I saw her, with a man
00:40:28They were standing awfully close together and he
00:40:30Close together, you say?
00:40:32Why yes, and he took hold of her sleeve
00:40:35And then?
00:40:36She drew back in the end
00:40:38But she knew him well, Edward
00:40:40He called her Lizzie
00:40:41What was the man's name?
00:40:43Lennox, Edgar Lennox
00:40:45I've heard of this Edgar Lennox
00:40:46The Viscount's son
00:40:47And the one who has been off painting in Italy for the past six years
00:40:50Then you must also know that he and Elizabeth were once
00:40:52You followed her?
00:40:54No
00:40:55I just happened to be passing by
00:40:56Georgiana
00:41:00Elizabeth is Lady Windworm
00:41:01She is the mistress of this house
00:41:03Whom she encounters on the road
00:41:04With whom she speaks
00:41:05With whom she spends her time
00:41:07Such matters are of importance to her and her alone
00:41:09You should have married a true lady
00:41:10Not some vulgar country woman
00:41:13Go home, Georgina
00:41:18Edgar Lennox
00:41:23My lady
00:41:24His lordship has inquired as to whether you might be at leisure this afternoon
00:41:28Did he indicate the purpose of said inquiry?
00:41:31He said he'd like to, and I quote precisely, take you out for a ride
00:41:34He mentioned the North Meadow
00:41:38Please convey to his lordship that I shall be ready in twenty minutes
00:41:40Of course, my lady
00:41:50Georgiana paid me a visit this morning
00:41:52I imagine she did not call upon you to converse about the weather
00:41:56You encountered Edgar Lennox on the North Road this morning
00:42:04I did
00:42:05Our carriage came to grief in the mud
00:42:07He assisted with freeing the wheel
00:42:12Georgiana is young
00:42:13And her emotions have been known to obscure her judgment
00:42:15I thought you should know that I sent her right away
00:42:18He didn't ask me to ride because he sought to question me
00:42:21It's because he wished to inform me he sent Georgiana away
00:42:25He's telling me he stands on my side
00:42:30Thank you, Edward
00:42:31For what?
00:42:32We're married, you need not thank me
00:42:36Edgar Lennox has spent six years in Italy
00:42:39He may want to consider spending six more
00:42:41The further he remains from my wife, the better
00:42:51I cannot believe this
00:42:53He sent me away
00:42:58Tell me
00:42:59Tell me what happened
00:43:04He accused me of following her
00:43:05He is a loyal man, always has been
00:43:07And now his loyalty is wasted on the wrong person
00:43:11Has he any engagements away from Thornwood
00:43:14He leaves for Dutcher on Thursday
00:43:19He will surely be thinking of his new bride each moment he's away from her
00:43:30Edward chose her
00:43:35Very well
00:43:36Then let him see the true nature of this choice
00:43:49She still harbors feelings for me
00:44:17East Wing, old timber frames
00:44:19It's three stories of curtains
00:44:22And correspondence
00:44:23And everything Edward Window has ever cared to preserve
00:44:27And now a single oil lamp shall make it all disappear
00:44:36Lady Winfield and her lover
00:44:39Once Edward lays eyes on her charred bodies
00:44:42He will surely return to me
00:44:54Elizabeth
00:45:08My lord
00:45:09It began in the lower story
00:45:11Where's Lady Winda?
00:45:12We have not been able to find Lady Winda
00:45:14But we brought someone out
00:45:16From the East Wing
00:45:17A man
00:45:20Elizabeth
00:45:21She's still inside
00:45:27And just how are you so sure Lady Windam is in there?
00:45:30What were you doing at Thornfield in the middle of the night?
00:45:33Edward, I'm so sorry
00:45:35I did not wish to be the one
00:45:36What is that in your hand?
00:45:39Edward, it bears Elizabeth's handwriting
00:45:41I received a note
00:45:43I believed it to be
00:45:44You believed it to be from my wife
00:45:49Edward, you must see that all evidence points to Elizabeth and this man
00:45:53Elizabeth is still inside
00:45:55Of course she's inside
00:45:56That wicked adult
00:45:57She ought to be caged and paraded around the square
00:46:01Edward!
00:46:06Miss, don't, it's not safe in there
00:46:09My brother, Henry, you must save my brother
00:46:12Miss, I'm sorry
00:46:16He ran headfirst into that fire
00:46:20For her
00:46:29Henry, how did the fire start?
00:46:30Why are all of you just standing here?
00:46:32And you
00:46:33What are you doing here?
00:46:35You're not stuck in the fire?
00:46:36Why on earth would I venture to the East Wing in the middle of the night?
00:46:40You wretched creature
00:46:41How did you get so lucky?
00:46:43No matter
00:46:44Edward just ran to his death
00:46:45You have no one to rely on now
00:46:47And as a duchess
00:46:48It shall be my god-begin right to walk all over you
00:46:50My lady
00:46:51His lordship has gone into the fire
00:46:54You what?
00:46:55Why?
00:46:56Elizabeth!
00:46:57Elizabeth!
00:46:58My brother is still in there
00:47:00What do we do?
00:47:01He ran in because he thought you were trapped inside
00:47:03Oh dear, how did this happen?
00:47:04Let go, Georgiana
00:47:06No!
00:47:14She didn't write that note
00:47:17She can't have written that note
00:47:24It was you
00:47:28Cecilia, is it true?
00:47:31No
00:47:31I had nothing to do with that letter
00:47:34He's slanting me
00:47:38Edward!
00:47:43Elizabeth
00:47:44Go back
00:47:56Foolish woman
00:47:57Reckless man
00:48:07I thought I'd lost you
00:48:09You're safe
00:48:15I
00:48:17I
00:48:17I was wrong about that
00:48:25Not every wife would run into a burning building for her husband
00:48:28Why did you do it?
00:48:29You went in there for me
00:48:31I couldn't leave you to die
00:48:32Oh, Elizabeth
00:48:33Whatever am I going to do with you?
00:48:36You
00:48:52Get in before the water goes cold
00:48:57Edward
00:48:58That note Edgar received, it wasn't written by me
00:49:01I know
00:49:02I know
00:49:02As it happens, I also received a note
00:49:04Signed with Edgar's name
00:49:06But I did not go to meet him
00:49:08I'm glad to hear that
00:49:11That's all?
00:49:14It was Cecilia
00:49:16She did all of this
00:49:20Cecilia
00:49:22She is my mother's goddaughter
00:49:24She grew up around us
00:49:25There was a time when certain arrangements were considered
00:49:29By my mother
00:49:30By Cecilia's family
00:49:33I knew they were in favor of me
00:49:34And were you?
00:49:36I've never made any promises to Cecilia
00:49:38If she had hopes, they were not hopes I invited or confirmed
00:49:42As for me
00:49:45I forgot about her entirely on the morning I married you
00:49:51Edgar Lenniston and I, we grew up together as well
00:49:55He taught me to make charcoal drawings
00:49:58That is the whole of it, Edward
00:49:59There's nothing more
00:50:00Well then
00:50:02Now there are no secrets between us
00:50:05Now there are no secrets between us
00:50:09It's Friday today
00:50:11Yes, indeed it is
00:50:12There are about two hours left until dawn
00:50:15Perhaps you might like to watch the sunrise with me
00:50:21Yes, I'd like that
00:50:28May I?
00:50:30Yes, you may
00:50:40This
00:50:42This is what home feels like
00:50:54My lord, the Dowdage Duchess of Ravensborough has called upon you
00:50:58I informed her that you are not at leisure
00:51:00But she still has not taken her leave
00:51:03Show her in, Henry
00:51:11Thank you for seeing me, Edward
00:51:12Say what you have come to say, Cecilia
00:51:16You know very well why I am here
00:51:18Georgiana won't see me
00:51:20Your mother hasn't replied to my last three letters
00:51:23And you've issued a formal notice
00:51:25I'm no longer welcome at Thornfield, Girth
00:51:27Nor at any Wyndham property in the county
00:51:29That's correct
00:51:31Edward, please
00:51:33We've known each other since we were little
00:51:35You carried me home on your back
00:51:36When I broke my ankle at the Thornfield harvest
00:51:38Yes, I recall
00:51:40I also recall that during that same autumn
00:51:42You told me that you intended to marry someone wealthier than a mere earl
00:51:47Such was my obligation, Edward
00:51:49You know my family's circumstances
00:51:50You know I had no choice
00:51:52And you, you waited too, Edward
00:51:55All these years
00:51:57A Thornworld without a mistress
00:51:59Without a bride-to-be
00:52:00Do not be misled into thinking I was waiting for you
00:52:03That's not
00:52:03Don't say that, Edward
00:52:05You know that's not what I
00:52:06You've been a widow for eight months
00:52:07And in those eight months you have come to Shropshire
00:52:10Established yourself at Ravenscore
00:52:11Cultivated my sister's trust
00:52:13And forge a letter designed to do nothing less than destroy my wife's reputation
00:52:18I did what I believed
00:52:19I wasn't finished, Cecilia
00:52:21You also set fire to the east wing of my home
00:52:24You should be grateful that my wife was not there last night
00:52:27Otherwise you would not be standing in my study but rather in my dungeon
00:52:31She's not right for you, Edward
00:52:33Whatever you feel now, it will pass
00:52:35This afternoon you will return to your home in London
00:52:37And you will not come back
00:52:39No, you can't treat me this way
00:52:42I'm the Dowage Guchess of Ravenshile
00:52:45Do not forget that I am not just the Earl of Wyndham
00:52:49I am also the Prince Regent's companion
00:52:52Do you wish what you have done to become known through all of London?
00:52:55I suggest you preserve what's left of your dignity, Sushi
00:52:58Do you love her?
00:53:00Yes
00:53:01I do
00:53:13Good
00:53:15Now it's time to deal with the next one
00:53:26She came back for him
00:53:29And now it's all gone up in flames
00:53:47May I come in?
00:53:49Please
00:53:50I didn't know if Cecilia would attempt to harm you
00:53:52I know
00:53:53I'm sorry
00:53:54I owe you an apology, Elizabeth
00:53:56Several, in fact
00:53:57I forgive you
00:53:59So
00:54:00Do you reckon we could be friends from now on?
00:54:02Of course
00:54:07Georgiana
00:54:09I know you love your brother
00:54:13And I do too
00:54:22In all the years I've known him
00:54:25He's never been serious about anyone the way he is about you
00:54:28I know
00:54:29By the way
00:54:31You shoot better than I do
00:54:33You're not a bad shot yourself
00:54:44I'm leaving to London
00:54:45I'm leaving to London as a painter summoned by the king
00:54:48Yes
00:54:49I had heard rumours of such an arrangement
00:54:51The night of the fire
00:54:53I saw him run into the flames to look for you
00:54:57Without hesitation
00:54:59That was the moment I knew had lost you
00:55:01May London be everything you deserve, Edgar
00:55:04I hope you paint something magnificent
00:55:10Give my regards to Lord Wyndham
00:55:23Edgar
00:55:25He's gone
00:55:27I know
00:55:28The king offered him a very generous commission
00:55:31He is a talented man
00:55:33It would have been a waste
00:55:35Edward
00:55:36Yes
00:55:41I feel as if I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be
00:55:45I'll take that as a compliment
00:55:48Come
00:55:49My lord
00:55:56Elizabeth
00:56:01Elizabeth
00:56:04Elizabeth
00:56:22The fall did her no lasting harm, my lord
00:56:26However, I've noticed that Lady Winford is showing signs of fatigue
00:56:36Pardon me
00:56:37Congratulations, my lord
00:56:41Yes
00:56:43Thank you, Dr. Holt
00:57:02So, we're going to have a child
00:57:08Yes
00:57:11Yes
00:57:11Yes, we are
00:57:12This is beyond my wildest dreams, Elizabeth
00:57:15Thank you
00:57:18I'm sure you will want to tell your mother
00:57:25I shall have the carriage prepared for Thursday
00:57:27Vale will accompany you
00:57:29And take a warm blanket
00:57:30The mornings are cold now
00:57:32I know I needn't thank the man I married
00:57:36But I'd like to thank you on behalf of my mother, Edward
00:57:46I'm just JENNIFER
00:57:47Oh, my lord
00:57:52Excuse me
00:57:53For his sake
00:57:53This is why my mother
00:57:53Oh, my lord
00:57:54I shall좀
00:57:54For okay 안녕
00:57:54I have this
00:57:55Nice
00:57:55For okay
00:57:59To rock
00:58:00underway
00:58:09I don't know.
00:58:51Mother!
00:58:58Ah, Elizabeth.
00:59:00To what do we owe the pleasure?
00:59:05Come with me, Mother.
00:59:07Now.
00:59:10This is my house.
00:59:12She doesn't leave without my permission.
00:59:17Are you challenging the Countess of Windham, Sir Reginald?
00:59:29I'm pregnant.
00:59:32You're pregnant.
00:59:34Oh, God bless you, my child.
00:59:40Mother.
00:59:42I want to take you to Thornwood.
00:59:46He'll come chasing after us.
00:59:48You know how he gets when he's angry.
00:59:52Then we sneak out when he's not looking.
01:00:14Then we sneak out when he's not looking.
01:00:19Elizabeth.
01:00:26It's Edward.
01:00:39It's Edward.
01:00:41He's coming after us.
01:00:43You let him come.
01:00:50Lord Wyndham.
01:00:51What an honour.
01:00:53Though I must tell you, this is a family matter.
01:00:56It is for me as well.
01:00:58Lady Margaret leaves with us tonight, and you shall not follow her.
01:01:01She's my wife, Lord Wyndham.
01:01:03By law, she's required to...
01:01:04By law, yes.
01:01:07Shall we discuss law, Sir Reginald?
01:01:17Come in.
01:01:24My lord, I have come to take my wife home.
01:01:30These are private accounts, my lord.
01:01:32You have no right to...
01:01:32The Fenwood Estate carries debts to four creditors in this county.
01:01:36Two of those creditors sold their notes last month.
01:01:40To me, the roof you sleep under, the fields you work on, the horses in your stable.
01:01:45The papers holding your whole world together are sitting in my solicitor's office in Shrewsborough.
01:01:50My lord, I have always treated my family with the utmost...
01:01:55I have seen perfectly clearly how you treat your family.
01:01:59Lady Margaret's personal income will be administered through my estate, to be used as she pleases.
01:02:04If I receive word from any source that you have interfered with this agreement, you will lose your house, your
01:02:09land, and whatever is left of your name in this county.
01:02:18My wife sends her regards.
01:02:21Goodbye, Grace.
01:02:37No. Edward will handle everything.
01:02:42I saw them in the study this morning.
01:02:45As did I.
01:02:48Elizabeth...
01:02:50Is he... is he a good man, your Lord?
01:03:02He's the best man I've ever met, Mother.
01:03:07He's the best man I've ever met.
01:03:09He's the best man I've ever met.
01:03:16He's the best man I've ever met.
01:03:17Now let me tell ya...
01:03:19The way this is working...
01:03:37How long will you be gone for?
01:03:38Four months, perhaps.
01:03:43I don't wish to go.
01:03:45I know. I know you don't.
01:03:48Elizabeth, I...
01:03:50It's Friday, you know.
01:03:59I'll be gentle.
01:04:01So will I.
01:04:03Don't be too gentle.
01:04:16I promise you'll write me.
01:04:21Every day.
01:04:39My Lord, it is the 14th of March, and your child has spent this morning using my ribs as a
01:04:46set of piano keys.
01:04:47Dr. Holt says the baby is healthy, and that it shouldn't be much longer now.
01:04:52Come home soon, Edward.
01:04:53We both eagerly await your return.
01:05:03A letter from London, my lady.
01:05:06In his lordship's own hand.
01:05:11Elizabeth, your letter from the 8th arrived my morning.
01:05:15I have read it four times, front to back.
01:05:19Today I write to tell you I am coming home.
01:05:21I find I have a great deal to tell our child, and even more to tell you.
01:05:26Did you hear that, Edward?
01:05:29Our baby's ready to meet you.
01:05:32My lady.
01:05:33There are two gentlemen at the door.
01:05:35Officers, I believe.
01:05:36They are carrying a sealed summon.
01:05:46Lady Winverde, we are here to deliver a summons from His Royal Highness, the Prince Regent.
01:05:50Your presence is urgently required in London, and the matter is one of considerable importance.
01:05:58May I have the night to prepare?
01:05:59I'm afraid we cannot afford any delay, my lady.
01:06:02The carriage is prepared.
01:06:07Very well.
01:06:09Allow me five minutes to gather my pains.
01:06:21My lady.
01:06:22The seal on this carriage.
01:06:24I need time to verify it.
01:06:29Lady Wyndham, I'm sure you don't want to anger the Prince Regent.
01:06:45That sound.
01:06:46This isn't the road to London, it's the Cliff Road.
01:06:52Stop this carriage!
01:06:54Stop the carriage!
01:06:55Immediately!
01:07:11Elizabeth!
01:07:37Edward!
01:07:38Take my hand!
01:07:39Edward!
01:07:40Take my hand!
01:07:49Edward!
01:07:50Yes?
01:07:51What is it?
01:07:52I think...
01:07:53I think the child is coming.
01:07:56Edward!
01:07:58Yes?
01:08:06What is it?
01:08:07I think...
01:08:13My lord, this lodge is currently occupied by His Royal Highness.
01:08:17Move.
01:08:40Your first child?
01:08:41Your first child?
01:08:41Yes.
01:08:42I have been informed about the incident on the Cliff Road.
01:08:45The carriage, the summons...
01:08:46Who was it?
01:08:46A widow.
01:08:47Recently returned from London.
01:08:49She forged the seal.
01:08:51She also set fire to the East Ring of my home in October.
01:08:54The Dowager Gredness.
01:08:55Yes, Your Highness.
01:08:56I assure you that this matter will be investigated fully.
01:08:59She will bring no more trouble your household.
01:09:01Thank you, Your Highness.
01:09:03And for this...
01:09:05For allowing us in...
01:09:06Don't thank me for that.
01:09:07Thank my wife.
01:09:08She heard the commotion at the gate and gave the order before I could even open my mouth.
01:09:12She sounds like a formidable woman.
01:09:16That's one way to put it.
01:09:25My lord, Lady Windry is well.
01:09:28You have a son.
01:09:40He has your eyes.
01:09:45Why am I there?
01:09:47Please.
01:09:52Please.
01:09:55Please.
01:09:56Please.
01:09:57Your Highness.
01:09:58The Princess Regent.
01:10:07Jane.
01:10:12The Princess Regent.
01:10:13The Princess Regent.
01:10:14The Princess Regent.
01:10:15Do you see her?
01:10:21How does a woman who ran away from her own wedding become princess regent?
01:10:28It all started with a marsh.
01:10:30I beg your pardon?
01:10:31On that day, I fled the carriage.
01:10:34Cut across the north field.
01:10:36I did not know there was a marsh.
01:10:40Before I knew it, I was up to my waist.
01:10:42And then, there was a great deal of noise coming from the trees.
01:10:46Dogs, a horse, and a man who looked rather displeased to find a woman wading about in his marsh.
01:10:51He pulled me out himself, gave me his coat before asking my name.
01:10:55He was unexpectedly decent.
01:10:57And then you told him your name, I presume?
01:10:59Yes, then I told him my name.
01:11:01And he told me his.
01:11:03And neither of us went home for a very long time.
01:11:06Are you happy, Jane?
01:11:13Are you?
01:11:15More than I had ever thought was possible.
01:11:24The Prince Regent will present honours tonight.
01:11:26Did any of you receive warning of this?
01:11:28None at all.
01:11:29Which means he wants it to be a surprise.
01:11:31But who shall it be?
01:11:32Cavendish?
01:11:33Ashmore?
01:11:34I heard it's not even a man.
01:11:36Apparently, the honour is to be a stowed upon a couple.
01:11:40A husband.
01:11:42And wife.
01:11:44Good heavens!
01:11:46A joint honour?
01:11:47And what title shall be awarded to them?
01:11:50Are you nervous?
01:11:52I'd be lying if I said I wasn't.
01:11:55Do you remember when we first met?
01:11:59Yes.
01:11:59When those doors opened, you were the spitting image of a well-behaved young lady.
01:12:03And you looked like an unbearably serious old man who had never known true happiness.
01:12:07Well, things are different now.
01:12:09This time, when these doors open, I'll be standing right beside you.
01:12:13Shall we?
01:12:19Is that Lady Wyndham?
01:12:22How could Lord Wyndham have...
01:12:25You look magnificent.
01:12:27I know.
01:12:28And I feel magnificent.
01:12:32With the honour of the crowd, and in recognition of their remarkable courage and loyalty,
01:12:37I hereby elevate Lord Edward Wyndham and Lady Elizabeth Wyndham to the rank of Marcus and Martianse of Thornfield.
01:12:49Thank you very much.
