00:00:04Today is my sister's wedding day, James 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. Jay.
00:00:58Jane, do you know that if you run away from your wedding with the Earl of Windeck, the Fenwick family
00:01:03will be ruined completely?
00:01:15The Fenwicks were once a distinguished family, before Sir Reginald ruined it. Indeed. If not for some old favour the
00:01:22Fenwicks once did the late Earl, it's hard to imagine this match ever being considered at all.
00:01:41Miss, Mr. Vale has come to hurry things along twice already.
00:01:47Miss, Mr. Vale has come to hurry things along twice already.
00:02:01Miss, Mr. Vale has come to hurry things along once again, jamming the men in front of his duties.
00:02:05Not only, they have to worry about maybe the mid- Becca feelvergen came up easily.
00:02:07Lๆ 2 so children'd be bothered.
00:02:07So drive us their mountains with my p wanna listen to a 30-year-old river to the camel, from
00:02:09the back of everyone in his purse.
00:02:09Miss, Mr. Vale has come to let it rip and get๋๊น, and I always say they will be hungry now,
00:02:16but it's still possible for us.
00:02:16Likewise, Strangis really will have to be a given mental of urgency with the frequently who reached now to speak
00:02:16to your wedding night.
00:02:16Aycz ele sozusagen isรny, who sits between her husband and a cellman in front of the lab.

00:02:33that is not jane fenwick that's the younger sister the younger sister but she's the
00:02:38illegitimate one i should think good lord what an insult to the honor of the house of wyndham

00:04:15where is lord edward his lordship was called away to london on urgent business
00:04:19you may move to thornwood later today
00:04:26he didn't even hear my explanation he left without signing the marriage papers
00:04:32perhaps he never meant to sign them at all
00:04:35is this some kind of punishment for taking my sister's place
00:05:01she's up for mother me
00:05:10none of us attended but i've heard every detail
00:05:15they say the sister ran off and the younger one took her place
00:05:18showed up in riding clothes no less
00:05:20you do keep well informed dorothea
00:05:23tell me was she truly in riding clothes
00:05:25mrs milsom's daughter was sitting in the front rows

00:09:33old flame

00:16:09edward
00:16:17This isn't helpful.
00:17:04God, how could I dream something like that about him?
00:17:07I must be out of my mind.
00:17:09My lady, breakfast is ready.
00:17:13Coming!
00:17:28I was unsure of your preferences, so I asked the cook to prepare a variety.
00:17:37He arranged all of this.
00:17:39What does he take me for?
00:17:40It 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.
00:18:06Lady Wyndham.
00:18:08How lovely to find you here.
00:18:12And all on your own.
00:18:15Rupert.
00:18:16You know Lady Wyndham, I believe.
00:18:18Miss Fenwick.
00:18:27Miss Fenwick.
00:18:47My apologies, Lady Winford.
00:18:48The understanding of one another's character.
00:18:50How refreshing that some marriages may still be arranged so expeditiously.
00:18:57My lady, a message for you.
00:19:06Cannot return to Thornwith before midnight.
00:19:09Enjoy the party.
00:19:15Another entire evening to yourself.
00:19:17One cannot help but wonder.
00:19:19Had you known, why bother to attend at all?
00:19:22Lord Wyndham chose to marry me, Dorothea.
00:19:25I've never felt the need to examine his reasons too closely.
00:19:29Come, Rupert.
00:19:30It's been ages since I last danced.
00:19:33You must indulge me this evening.
00:19:51Lady Wyndham.
00:19:52What a fortunate coincidence.
00:19:53Mr. Bellman.
00:19:55I assume your fiancรฉ is inside.
00:19:57Ah, yes.
00:19:58I stepped out for some air.
00:20:00And seemed to have lost my way.
00:20:02You look very well, Lady Winford.
00:20:04Marriage suits you.
00:20:05Thank you. I believe I should return home.
00:20:06No need to hurry.
00:20:07It's a fine night.
00:20:08That's enough, Mr. Bellman.
00:20:10Come now, Elizabeth.
00:20:11A woman as young as you.
00:20:13As lovely as you.
00:20:16Deserves far more than a cold bed and a husband who...
00:20:18That's enough!
00:20:20Mr. Bellamy.
00:20:21I mean it kindly.
00:20:24Hmph.
00:20:33Good heavens, how did I end up here?
00:20:36My lady, I'm coming.
00:20:47I'm coming.
00:20:50Lady Wyndham.
00:20:52You are going the wrong way.
00:20:54Allow me to show you out.
00:21:09And who exactly is meant to make them?
00:21:21There is no need to be alarmed.
00:21:23I only wish to talk.
00:21:24I would like to tell you.
00:21:25Then speak from where you stand.
00:21:29My dear.
00:21:34Stop!
00:21:38What do you think you're doing?
00:21:42Dorothea, you must forgive me.
00:21:43I was only trying to remove myself from a most uncomfortable situation.
00:21:47Lady Winded sought me out.
00:21:48Elizabeth!
00:21:49How dare you try and scare my fiancรฉ at a gathering like this?
00:21:52That is not...
00:21:53I mean no disrespect.
00:21:53But I am a man of honour and I think it best to be plain.
00:21:57Good lord.
00:21:58Did she really try to seduce Lady Dorothea's fiancรฉ?
00:22:03I've long suspected she wasn't quite respectable.
00:22:07I shall inform Lord Edward at once he'll have you turned out of Thornwood without hesitation.
00:22:11Now, apologise to my fiancรฉ.
00:22:13At once.
00:22:15Miss Vane, you will address me correctly or you will not address me at all.
00:22:19You are not worth the courtesy.
00:22:36My lord, thank god you're here.
00:22:39Lady Winford approached Rupert herself.
00:22:42We were only trying to...
00:22:43When did he arrive?
00:22:44How much did he hear?
00:22:45Does he believe them?
00:22:46Are you hurt?
00:22:53Edward.
00:23:02My apologies.
00:23:03I seem to have arrived a moment too late.
00:23:07Good lord!
00:23:09Has Lord Weidman really ruined a hundred-year-old young maize?
00:23:13For a wife of such low birth.
00:23:19Let every person here who has dishonoured my wife hear me.
00:23:23Before this night is over, you will regret it.
00:23:26Yes, my lord!
00:23:27Edward!
00:23:28My lord!
00:23:29I am your cousin!
00:23:31You cannot treat me like this!
00:23:33If you mean to say you're my mother's cousin's granddaughter,
00:23:37I've over fifty others just like you.
00:23:54You have endured enough.
00:24:04Home awaits us.
00:24:08Edward, you must know.
00:24:10I did not seek Mr. Bellarmine out.
00:24:12I...
00:24:12I know.
00:24:13I know precisely what kind of man he is.
00:24:15I believe you, Elizabeth.
00:24:17We have been married for a few days now.
00:24:20We have.
00:24:22And I find I know remarkably little about you.
00:24:25I believe goes both ways.
00:24:27Perhaps this presents an opportunity to remedy that.
00:24:29We might begin with a kiss.
00:24:34He's asking him to kiss me.
00:24:36On horseback.
00:24:37Out in the open in the middle of the night.
00:24:39God knows how long I've waited for this moment.
00:24:42You have my permission.
00:24:59It's all right.
00:25:01He's settled now.
00:25:08We're home.
00:25:12My lord.
00:25:13My lady.
00:25:21I'll see you shortly, Elizabeth.
00:25:24Shortly?
00:25:25What does he mean, shortly?
00:25:26Tonight?
00:25:27I thought I had rather expected.
00:25:29I seem to have expected it more than I realized.
00:25:31Yes.
00:25:32Shortly, then.
00:25:47Of course.
00:25:49Of all nights, it would be this one.
00:26:00Come in.
00:26:01Come in.
00:26:04There's something I must tell you.
00:26:06It concerns a domestic matter.
00:26:10I see.
00:26:15Does he?
00:26:16Does he truly?
00:26:17Please, God.
00:26:18Let him understand without making me say it outright.
00:26:22Come.
00:26:33No.
00:26:34Not like this.
00:26:37How are you feeling?
00:26:39Rather better, thank you.
00:26:41Forgive me.
00:26:42Elizabeth.
00:26:43Yes.
00:26:44Stop apologizing.
00:26:45Yes, very well.
00:26:50Elizabeth.
00:27:06Elizabeth.
00:27:06Elizabeth.
00:27:07What is it?
00:27:18Elizabeth.
00:27:19Elizabeth.

00:30:51That's Edward's mother.
00:30:52She looks so young to find.
00:30:58Lady Adelaine, forgive the intrusion.
00:31:02I am...
00:31:11Lady Wyndon.
00:31:14I had wondered when we should meet.
00:31:17I am Cecilia.
00:31:19Lady Adelaine was called away unexpectedly.
00:31:23She asked me to receive you in her place.
00:31:25That's her.
00:31:27Cecilia Marlowe.
00:31:28Lady Adelaine's goddaughter.
00:31:31The woman Edward wants life to life.
00:31:35Your grace, the pleasure is mine.
00:31:38Please, none of that.
00:31:39We're practically family now.
00:31:41Adelaine will be back shortly.
00:31:42In the meantime, Georgina, Edward's younger sister, is in the South Garden.
00:31:45Shall we?
00:31:46Lady Adelaide summoned me.
00:31:47Yet she's here.
00:31:49Was she hoping Edward would meet with her instead?
00:31:57She carries herself as if she owns the place.
00:32:12She carries herself as if she owns the place.
00:32:13So you've finally emerged from your greenhouse, sissy.
00:32:17After all these years in London, let's see whether your aim has suffered.
00:32:22I've been waiting here for our guest, as my mother asked.
00:32:25Elizabeth, this is Georgiana.
00:32:26We call her Georgie.
00:32:27Georgie, this is Elizabeth.
00:32:28Ah, the new Lady Wyndham.
00:32:30And what do you do for amusement?
00:32:32I read.
00:32:32I write.
00:32:33I am sure Lady Wyndham has many other accomplishments, Georgie.
00:32:37Of course she does.
00:32:37Most people do when they can't shoot.
00:32:39No offense, Elizabeth.
00:32:41It simply requires a certain constitution.
00:32:43Not everyone has it.
00:32:45Perhaps Lady Wyndham would care to try.
00:32:47It is only fair to offer.
00:32:48Oh, by all means, bring another gun.
00:32:53A gun for beginners.
00:32:57You know your way around guns?
00:32:59Elizabeth, you needn't oblige.
00:33:02Georgie is only teasing.
00:33:04You can watch if you prefer.
00:33:16Well.
00:33:19You had three.
00:33:20I shall not be greedy.
00:33:25I shall not be greedy.
00:33:34Mother.
00:33:35Where on earth did you find her?
00:33:37She found me.
00:33:39I like her.
00:33:42So do I.
00:33:49Come in.
00:33:55My mother asked me to convey her apologies.
00:33:59She had no intention of neglecting you today.
00:34:01I understand.
00:34:03Georgiana and the Duchess of Ravensbrow made the afternoon quite agree of all.
00:34:09It's Friday.
00:34:10So it is.
00:34:12I must admit,
00:34:14I am not entirely certain how one is meant to begin.
00:34:16Nor am I.
00:34:22I should warn you,
00:34:23there are rather a great many hooks.
00:34:25Twenty-three.
00:34:29I see.
00:34:44I confess I don't quite know
00:34:46what
00:34:48I meant to do with my...
00:34:50Elizabeth.
00:34:52You are not supposed to do anything.
00:35:02The desk.
00:35:04I thought you might find it easier
00:35:06to begin with.
00:35:08I did not realize how warm his hands would feel.
00:35:20Breathe.
00:35:23You are going to suffocate yourself.
00:35:32Are you ready?
00:35:34I...
00:35:35I...
00:35:38I'll take that as a yes.
00:35:42Let's begin.
00:35:44Let's begin.
00:35:45Let's begin.
00:35:46Let's begin.
00:35:48Let's begin.
00:35:56Let's begin.
00:36:09Let's begin.
00:36:26All right, you absolutely must tell me everything.
00:36:31I've no idea what you mean.
00:36:32Elizabeth Winwin, nรฉe Fenwork.
00:36:35You arrived at my door this morning wearing the very expression of a woman who has just
00:36:40discovered something rather surprising about the world, was it?
00:36:44Was it Friday?
00:36:47You are incorrible.
00:36:49I am your oldest friend and I deserve details.
00:36:51Was he?
00:36:52He was considerate, extraordinary so.
00:36:58How?
00:36:59He made quite certain that I was comfortable before anything else, several times in fact.
00:37:09Good Lord.
00:37:10That is all I shall say on the subject.
00:37:12And afterward, in the morning?
00:37:16He said come back to bed.
00:37:19As though I'd been there all along.
00:37:21Only meant to return.
00:37:23He held my hand.
00:37:27Lizzie.
00:37:30Don't.
00:37:31You like him.
00:37:34I am beginning to think I might.
00:37:42We're stuck in the mud.
00:37:53We'll need to push from the left.
00:37:55Wedge something under the wheel first.
00:37:57There's a plank in the ditch.
00:37:59Perhaps we ought to wait for someone to pass by.
00:38:13Lizzie.
00:38:14How can I pass?
00:38:27Same as ever.
00:38:28Still finding trouble on a perfectly straight road.
00:38:31The road found me.
00:38:33I was perfectly innocent.
00:38:36Of course you were.
00:38:37You always were.
00:38:40Edgar Lennox.
00:38:41A Viscuit's son.
00:38:43The summer I was 14, he taught me to sketch on the crumbling mill wall.
00:38:46Charcoal everywhere.
00:38:48My mother spent three days scrubbing my dress clean.
00:38:50Then he left for Italy.
00:38:53Is that... Edgar?
00:38:56I thought he was still in Italy.
00:39:06I am Lady Winford now, Mr. Lennox.
00:39:08I trust you will do me the kindness of remembering it.
00:39:10Forgive me, I had not heard of the marriage.
00:39:14I hope you are well, Lady Wind...
00:39:15I am.
00:39:17Give my regards to Lord Wyndove.
00:39:28Six years without a word.
00:39:30And now he returns at just this moment.
00:39:31He didn't know, Harriet.
00:39:33Perhaps not.
00:39:34Lord Wyndare is worth ten of him.
00:39:35You know that, don't you?
00:39:39Come.
00:39:39The road is clear now.
00:39:47She was smiling at him, did you see?
00:39:49A married woman smiling at a man like that, out in the open road.
00:39:52She stepped away from him, Georgie.
00:39:54That much was plain enough.
00:39:55I shall tell Edward.
00:39:56I shall tell him exactly what I saw, and he will do as you think best, my dear.
00:40:01You know your brother better than I do.
00:40:15Edward, there's something I must tell you.
00:40:17It concerns your wife.
00:40:18Good morning to you too, Georgina.
00:40:21I was riding this morning, along the north road.
00:40:24I saw her, with a man.
00:40:26They were standing awfully close together, and he...
00:40:28Close together, you say?
00:40:29Why, yes, and he took hold of her sleeve.
00:40:33And then?
00:40:34She drew back in the end.
00:40:36But she knew him well, Edward.
00:40:37He called her Lizzie.
00:40:39What was the man's name?
00:40:41Lennox.
00:40:41Edgar Lennox.
00:40:43I've heard of this Edgar Lennox.
00:40:44The Viscount's son.
00:40:45The one who has been off painting in Italy for the past six years.
00:40:48Then you must also know that he and Elizabeth were once...
00:40:50You followed her?
00:40:51No.
00:40:52I just happened to be passing by.
00:40:54Georgiana.
00:40:57Elizabeth is Lady Windworm.
00:40:59She is the mistress of this house.
00:41:01Whom she encounters on the road, with whom she speaks, with whom she spends her time,
00:41:04such matters are of importance to her and her alone.
00:41:07You should have married a true lady, not some vulgar countrywoman.
00:41:11Go home, Georgina.
00:41:16Edgar Lennox.
00:41:20My lady, his lordship has inquired as to whether you might be at leisure this afternoon.
00:41:26Did he indicate the purpose of said inquiry?
00:41:28He said he'd like to, and I quote precisely, take you out for a ride.
00:41:32He mentioned the North Meadow.
00:41:36Please convey to his lordship that I shall be ready in twenty minutes.
00:41:39Of course, my lady.
00:41:47Georgiana paid me a visit this morning.
00:41:50I imagine she did not call upon you to converse about the weather.
00:41:53You encountered Edgar Lennox on the North Road this morning.
00:42:02I did.
00:42:03Our carriage came to grief in the mud.
00:42:05He assisted with freeing the wheel.
00:42:09Georgiana is young, and her emotions have been known to obscure her judgment.
00:42:13I thought you should know that I sent her right away.
00:42:16He didn't ask me to ride because he sought to question me.
00:42:19It's because he wished to inform me he sent Georgiana away.
00:42:23He's telling me he stands on my side.
00:42:28Thank you, Edward.
00:42:29For what?
00:42:30We're married.
00:42:31You need not thank me.
00:42:34Edgar Lennox has spent six years in Italy.
00:42:36He may want to consider spending six more.
00:42:39The further he remains from my wife, the better.
00:42:49I cannot believe this.
00:42:51He sent me away.
00:42:52I can't believe this.
00:42:55Tell me what happened.
00:43:01He accused me of following her.
00:43:03He is a loyal man, always has been.
00:43:05And now his loyalty is wasted on the wrong person.
00:43:09Has he any engagements away from Thornwood?
00:43:12He leaves for Dertshire on Thursday.
00:43:16He will surely be thinking of his new bride each moment he's away from her.
00:43:27Edward chose her.
00:43:32Very well.
00:43:34Then let him see the true nature of this choice.
00:43:47She still harbors feelings for me.
00:44:15East Wing, Old Timber Frames.
00:44:17It's three stories of curtains and correspondence.
00:44:21And everything Edward Window has ever cared to preserve.
00:44:24And now a single oil lamp shall make it all disappear.
00:44:34Lady Winfield and her lover.
00:44:37Once Edward lays eyes on their charred bodies, he will surely return to me.
00:44:51Elizabeth!
00:44:53Elizabeth!
00:44:57Elizabeth!
00:45:02Elizabeth!
00:45:06My lord, it began in the lower story.
00:45:08Where's Lady Wyndham?
00:45:09We have not been able to find Lady Wyndham,
00:45:11but we brought someone out from the east wing.
00:45:15A man.
00:45:17Elizabeth, she's still inside.
00:45:24And just how are you so sure Lady Wyndham is in there?
00:45:27What were you doing at Thornfield in the middle of the night?
00:45:30Edward, I'm so sorry.
00:45:32I did not wish to be the one that...
00:45:33What is that in your hand?
00:45:36Edward, it bears Elizabeth's handwriting.
00:45:39I received a note. I believed it to be...
00:45:41You believed it to be from my wife.
00:45:46Edward, you must see that all evidence points to Elizabeth and this man.
00:45:50Elizabeth is still inside.
00:45:52Of course she's inside that wicked adult.
00:45:54She ought to be caged and paraded around the square.
00:45:59Edward!
00:46:03Miss, don't! It's not safe in there!
00:46:07My brother! Henry, you must save my brother!
00:46:10Miss, I'm sorry!
00:46:14He ran headfirst into that fire.
00:46:17For her.
00:46:26Henry, how did the fire start?
00:46:28Why are all of you just standing here?
00:46:29And you, what are you doing here?
00:46:32You're not stuck in the fire?
00:46:34Why on earth would I venture to the east wing in the middle of the night?
00:46:37You wretched creature.
00:46:39How did you get so lucky?
00:46:40No matter.
00:46:41Edward just ran to his death.
00:46:43You have no one to rely on now.
00:46:44And as a duchess,
00:46:45it shall be my god-begin right to walk all over you.
00:46:48My lady,
00:46:48his lordship has gone into the fire.
00:46:51You what?
00:46:52Why?
00:46:53Elizabeth!
00:46:55Elizabeth!
00:46:56My brother is still in there!
00:46:57What do we do?
00:46:58He ran in because he thought you were trapped inside!
00:47:00Oh dear, how did this happen?
00:47:02Let go, Georgiana.
00:47:03No!
00:47:11She didn't write that note.
00:47:14She can't have written that note.
00:47:22It was you!
00:47:25Cecilia, is it true?
00:47:28No!
00:47:29I had nothing to do with that letter!
00:47:32He's slanting me!
00:47:35Edward!
00:47:39Elizabeth,
00:47:41go back.
00:47:53Foolish woman.
00:47:54Reckless man.
00:48:05I thought I'd lost you.
00:48:07You're safe.
00:48:13I...
00:48:14I was wrong about that.
00:48:22Not every wife would run into a burning building for her husband.
00:48:25Why did you do it?
00:48:27You went in there for me.
00:48:28I couldn't leave you to die.
00:48:30Oh, Elizabeth.
00:48:31Whatever am I going to do with you?
00:48:33You.
00:48:49Get in before the water goes cold.
00:48:55Edward, that note Edgar received, it wasn't written by me.
00:48:58I know.
00:48:59As it happens, I also received a note, signed with Edgar's name, but I did not go to meet him.
00:49:05I'm glad to hear that.
00:49:08That's all?
00:49:11It was Cecilia.
00:49:12It was Cecilia.
00:49:13She did all of this.
00:49:16Cecilia.
00:49:19She is my mother's goddaughter.
00:49:21She grew up around us.
00:49:22There was a time when certain arrangements were considered by my mother, by Cecilia's family.
00:49:30I knew they were in favor of me.
00:49:32And were you?
00:49:33I've never made any promises to Cecilia.
00:49:36If she had hopes, they were not hopes I invited or confirmed.
00:49:39As for me,
00:49:42I forgot about her entirely on the morning I married you.
00:49:48Edgar Lenniston and I, we grew up together as well.
00:49:52He taught me to make charcoal drawings.
00:49:55That is the whole of it, Edward.
00:49:56There's nothing more.
00:49:57Well, then, now there are no secrets between us.
00:50:02Now there are no secrets between us.
00:50:06It's Friday today.
00:50:08Yes, indeed it is.
00:50:09There are about two hours left until dawn.
00:50:12Perhaps you might like to watch the sunrise with me?
00:50:18Yes, I'd like that.
00:50:25May I?
00:50:27Yes, I'd like that.
00:50:31Yes, I'd like that.
00:50:37This.
00:50:39This is what home feels like.
00:50:51My lord, the Dowditch, Duchess of Ravensborough, has called upon you.
00:50:55I informed her that you are not at leisure, but...
00:50:57she still has not taken her leave.
00:51:00Show her in, Henry.
00:51:08Thank you for seeing me, Edward.
00:51:10Say what you have come to say, Cecilia.
00:51:13You know very well why I am here.
00:51:15Georgiana won't see me.
00:51:17Your mother hasn't replied to my last three letters.
00:51:20And you've issued a formal notice.
00:51:22I'm no longer welcome at Thornfield, Girth, nor at any Wyndham property in the county.
00:51:27That's correct.
00:51:28Edward, please.
00:51:30We've known each other since we were little.
00:51:32You carried me home on your back when I broke my ankle at the Thornfield harvest.
00:51:36Yes, I recall.
00:51:36I also recall that during that same autumn, you told me that you intended to marry someone wealthier than a
00:51:42mere earl.
00:51:44Such was my obligation, Edward.
00:51:46You know my family's circumstances.
00:51:47You know I had no choice.
00:51:49And you, you waited too, Edward.
00:51:52All these years.
00:51:54A Thornfield without a mistress, without a bride-to-be.
00:51:57Do not be misled into thinking I was waiting for you.
00:52:00That's not...
00:52:01Don't say that, Edward.
00:52:02You know that's not what I...
00:52:03You've been a widow for eight months.
00:52:04And in those eight months, you have come to Shropshire, established yourself at Ravenscore,
00:52:08cultivated my sister's trust,
00:52:10and forged a letter designed to do nothing less than destroy my wife's reputation.
00:52:15I did what I believed...
00:52:16I wasn't finished, Cecilia.
00:52:18You also set fire to the east wing of my home.
00:52:21You should be grateful that my wife was not there last night.
00:52:24Otherwise, you would not be standing in my study, but rather in my dungeon.
00:52:28She's not right for you, Edward.
00:52:30Whatever you feel now, it will pass.
00:52:32This afternoon, you will return to your home in London.
00:52:35And you will not come back.
00:52:37No.
00:52:37You can't treat me this way.
00:52:39I'm the Dowage Guchess of Ravenshile.
00:52:42Do not forget that I am not just the Earl of Wyndham.
00:52:45I am also the Prince Regent's companion.
00:52:49Do you wish what you have done to become known through all of London?
00:52:52I suggest you preserve what's left of your dignity, Seoshi.
00:52:55Do you love her?
00:52:57Yes.
00:52:58I do.
00:53:10Good.
00:53:12Now it's time to deal with the next one.
00:53:23She came back for him.
00:53:26And now it's all gone up in flames.
00:53:44May I come in?
00:53:46Please.
00:53:47I didn't know if Cecilia would attempt to harm you.
00:53:49I know.
00:53:50I'm sorry.
00:53:51I owe you an apology, Elizabeth.
00:53:53Several, in fact.
00:53:54I forgive you.
00:53:56So, do you reckon we could be friends from now on?
00:53:59Of course.
00:54:04Georgiana.
00:54:06I know you love your brother.
00:54:09And I do too.
00:54:19In all the years I've known him.
00:54:22He's never been serious about anyone the way he is about you.
00:54:25I know.
00:54:26By the way,
00:54:28you shoot better than I do.
00:54:30You're not a bad shot yourself.
00:54:40I'm leaving to London as a painter summoned by the king.
00:54:44Yes.
00:54:46I had heard rumours of such an arrangement.
00:54:48The night of the fire,
00:54:50I saw him run into the flames to look for you.
00:54:53Without hesitation.
00:54:55That was the moment I knew had lost you.
00:54:58May London be everything you deserve, Edgar.
00:55:00I hope you paint something magnificent.
00:55:07Give my regards to Lord Wyndham.
00:55:20Edgar.
00:55:22He's gone.
00:55:24I know.
00:55:25The king offered him a very generous commission.
00:55:28He is a talented man.
00:55:29It would have been a waste.
00:55:31Edward.
00:55:33Yes?
00:55:37I feel as if I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be.
00:55:41I'll take that as a compliment.
00:55:44Come.
00:55:45My lord.
00:55:52Elizabeth!
00:55:58Elizabeth.
00:56:00Elizabeth.
00:56:07Elizabeth.
00:56:08Elizabeth!
00:56:19The fall did her no lasting harm, my lord.
00:56:22However, I've noticed that Lady Winford is showing signs of fatigue.
00:56:32Pardon me?
00:56:34Congratulations, my lord.
00:56:37Yes.
00:56:39Thank you, Dr. Holt.
00:56:59So, we're going to have a child?
00:57:05Yes.
00:57:07Yes, we are.
00:57:09This is beyond my wildest dreams, Elizabeth.
00:57:15I'm sure you will want to tell your mother.
00:57:21I shall have the carriage prepared for Thursday.
00:57:23Vale will accompany you.
00:57:25And take a warm blanket.
00:57:27The mornings are cold now.

01:00:46Lord Wyndham.

01:01:55Lady Margaret's personal income will be administered through my estate, to be used as she pleases.
