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.
00:00:48Liz, 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, Jane.
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?
00:01:16The Fenwicks were once a distinguished family, before Sir Reginald ruined it.
00:01:20Indeed, if not for some old favour 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.
00:01:53But
00:01:56so
00:01:58And
00:02:12now
00:02:33That is not Jane Fenwick, that's the younger sister.
00:02:36The younger sister, but she's the illegitimate one, I should think.
00:02:40Good lord, what an insult to the honour of the House of Wyndham.
00:02:47Why, Elizabeth?
00:02:49Why 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!
00:02:58Reginald, please, not here, people will see you.
00:03:02Miss Fenwick.
00:03:04Yes, my lord.
00:03:06You are not Miss Jane Fenwick.
00:03:09Yes, my lord.
00:03:10I 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.
00:03:20I have no right to ask anything of you, but...
00:03:26Marry me.
00:03:27Please, I beg you all.
00:03:35Ladies and gentlemen.
00:03:38I thank you for your attendance this morning.
00:03:40it is my honor 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 Thormitt later today.
00:04:26He didn't even hear my explanation.
00:04:29He 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?
00:04:37For taking my sister's place.
00:05:11None of us attended.
00:05:13But I've heard every detail.
00:05:15They say the sister ran off.
00:05:17And 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?
00:05:25Mrs. Milsom's daughter was sitting in the front rows.
00:05:28She said when the cloak fell,
00:05:29the 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?
00:05:39I 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.
00:05:46As 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?
00:06:02Or 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.
00:06:10You?
00:06:11The one picking strawberries.
00:06:12Come here.
00:06:19Are you speaking to me?
00:06:21Of course.
00:06:21Who else could I be speaking to?
00:06:34Pour us some tea.
00:06:41My dear, do stay for a cup of tea before you go.
00:06:51Oh, how clumsy.
00:06:57Lady Winfend, your tea is ready.
00:06:59The housekeeper says there are new letters for your attention.
00:07:02If you would come with me.
00:07:09You're Edward's new wife?
00:07:21My lady.
00:07:25That's my girl.
00:07:28My lord.
00:07:33Tell Lady Windward that I...
00:07:35Wait.
00:07:40Give this to Lady Windward.
00:07:43And...
00:07:44Yes, 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.
00:08:10Picking strawberries herself.
00:08:12Hair in that state.
00:08:13What?
00:08:14On earth has Edward brought home?
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 pharsical wedding.
00:08:26What right do you have?
00:08:27Today you sit in my garden.
00:08:29At my table, drinking tea you bought yourself.
00:08:31And you didn't so announce your arrival.
00:08:32If you know your cousin as you say you do, you'd know he dislikes being disturbed.
00:08:36Next time, send word ahead.
00:08:38I'll have tea prepared.
00:08:39Properly hot, not scalded.
00:08:41My lady.
00:08:43The Earl will be arriving shortly.
00:08:45He asks that you come out to receive him.
00:08:48Is my cousin back?
00:08:50I haven't seen him in ages.
00:08:52I'll go greet him as well.
00:08:53Lady Dorothea.
00:08:54Lord Edward has made it clear that now that he is married,
00:08:58all visitors are to be received only with Lady Winewield's consent.
00:09:11Please lead the way.
00:09:13My apologies, my lady.
00:09:15His lordship has been called away again.
00:09:17He did, however, leave strict instructions that you are not to be disturbed.
00:09:20This was just delivered for you.
00:09:30Word has it his trip to London had less to do with business
00:09:32and more to do with rekindling an old flame.
00:09:34Cecilia Marlott, his mother's goddaughter.
00:09:37They were raised together at Thornwood, apparently.
00:09:41What happened after?
00:09:44She married an old Duke in Wales.
00:09:47Poor girl.
00:09:47You feel sorry for her?
00:09:50Her husband just died.
00:09:52She's inherited a fortune.
00:09:54Who knows? She might come back.
00:09:56You'd better secure Lord Edward's affections while you can.
00:10:00I have not seen him since our wedding.
00:10:02What? How 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.
00:10:14You 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?
00:10:36A tranquil life that suits me well enough.
00:10:41So cold.
00:10:47Elizabeth.
00:10:48Elizabeth.
00:10:49Consider this my return for the insult.
00:10:52Enjoy finding your way across Thornwood with nothing on.
00:11:08Oh, no.
00:11:10Oh, no.
00:11:12Oh, no.
00:11:16Oh, no.
00:11:25Oh, no.
00:11:25O'ist there.
00:11:30Stop!
00:11:31Stop right there!
00:11:33I am the Countess of Wyndham.
00:11:36I command you to stop.
00:11:38You have no idea what it means to offend the Countess of Wyndham.
00:11:49My Lord, this is...
00:11:51I can explain.
00:11:54Please do not.
00:11:58You may... you may turn around now.
00:12:06My lord! This is entirely unnecessary. I assure you, I am quite capable of...
00:12:11You are barefoot on flint. Kindly be still.
00:12:21My lord.
00:12:24I'm here.
00:12:25I still owe you an explanation. Are you willing to hear it now?
00:12:31As you can see, I'm not otherwise occupied.
00:12:36I took my sister's place and married you that day because...
00:12:40Because I wanted my mother to stop being beaten.
00:12:43I see.
00:12:48You didn't need to do any of this.
00:12:50The moment you said I do at that altar, you fulfilled the agreement.
00:12:54You owe me nothing more.
00:12:55So 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.
00:13:06That's the first time he's said my name.
00:13:08I understand, my lord.
00:13:10Call me Edward. I'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.
00:13:32Cecilia.
00:13:33Cecilia Marlowe.
00:13:34The girl Edward grew up with.
00:13:40Milo...
00:13:41Edward.
00:13:41Sit down.
00:13:45May I ask you a question?
00:13:47Please do.
00:13:48Is there someone else you care for?
00:13:51In 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, I've no objection to any other attachments you may have.
00:14:06This marriage serves both our families.
00:14:08I have no wish to be a petty, jealous Countess.
00:14:11And if I were to tell you there is no such person, would you believe me?
00:14:17I... yes.
00:14:18I believe I would.
00:14:26I would.
00:14:31Elizabeth, you are the only Lady Wyndorff.
00:14:33I should like, if you're willing, to have a true marriage.
00:14:39In every sense.
00:14:42In every sense?
00:14:44Is he asking me to bear an heir for the Wyndham line?
00:14:49Come in.
00:14:52It is late.
00:14:54Yes.
00:15:05Elizabeth.
00:15:07Yes.
00:15:09You are frightened.
00:15:12I'm not.
00:15:13I mean, it would be entirely reasonable for you to...
00:15:15Elizabeth.
00:15:20I will not require anything of you tonight.
00:15:23I beg your pardon.
00:15:24You heard me.
00:15:26But...
00:15:26It is...
00:15:27It is your right.
00:15:28I am aware of what the law allows me.
00:15:32But that isn't the measure I intend to follow.
00:15:36Good night, Elizabeth.
00:15:40Does he not want me?
00:16:09Edward.
00:16:18This isn't helpful.
00:16:32Let's go.
00:16:48Let's go.
00:16:49Let's go.
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.
00:17:14Coming!
00:17:29I was unsure of your preferences, so I asked the cook to prepare a variety.
00:17:37He arranged all of this. What 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. How lovely to find you here.
00:18:12And all on your own.
00:18:15Rupert. You know Lady Wyndham, I believe.
00:18:18Miss Fenwick.
00:18:21My apologies, Lady Winford.
00:18:23The title still takes one by surprise, I must admit.
00:18:26Good evening, Miss Vane.
00:18:28Mr. Bellamy.
00:18:29Rupert and I have some happy news.
00:18:31We're to be formally engaged at the McHill Miss Ball.
00:18:34Dorothea was gracious enough to accept me.
00:18:37Though, I suspect she rather enjoys making me wait.
00:18:40Our union, of course, has been rather more conventional.
00:18:44Years of acquaintance, shared society, a genuine 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.
00:19:06Can not 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?
00:19:21Why 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.
00:19:54Mr. Bellman.
00:19:55I assume your fiancé is inside.
00:19:57Ah, yes.
00:19:58I stepped out for some air and seemed to have lost my way.
00:20:02You look very well, Lady Winford.
00:20:04Marriage suits you.
00:20:05I 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, as lovely as you,
00:20:15deserves far more than a cold bed and a husband...
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.
00:20:50Lady Wyndham.
00:20:52You are going the wrong way.
00:20:54Allow me to show you out.
00:21:02Then let me be plain, Mr. Bellamy.
00:21:05Leave these grounds at once.
00:21:09And who... exactly is meant to make it?
00:21:21There is no need to be alarmed
00:21:23I only wish to talk
00:21:24Then 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
00:21:46Lady Wind had sought me out
00:21:48Elizabeth, how dare you try and scare my fiancé at a gathering like this
00:21:52That is not...
00:21:53I mean no disrespect
00:21:54But I am a man of honour and I think it best to be plain
00:21:56Good lord, did she really try to seduce Lady Dorothea's fiancé?
00:22:03I've long suspected she wasn't quite respectable
00:22:07I shall inform Lord Edward at once
00:22:08He'll have you turned out of Thornwood without hesitation
00:22:10Now, apologise to my fiancé
00:22:13At once
00:22:15Miss Vane
00:22:15You will address me correctly
00:22:17Or you will not address me at all
00:22:19You are not worth the courtesy
00:22:36My lord
00:22:37Thank god you're here
00:22:38Lady Winford approached Rupert herself
00:22:41We were only trying to...
00:22:43When did he arrive?
00:22:44How much did he hear?
00:22:45Does he believe them?
00:22:47Are you hurt?
00:22:53Edward...
00:22:58Edward...
00:23:02My apologies
00:23:03I seem to have arrived a moment too late
00:23:07Good lord
00:23:08Has Lord Wideman really ruined a hundred-year-old Yang Mays?
00:23:13For a wife of such low birth
00:23:19let every person here who has dishonored my wife hear me before this night is over you will regret
00:23:25it yes my lord my lord i am your cousin you cannot treat me like this if you mean to

00:28:00There's something wrong. No. No, nothing.
00:28:09I wasn't certain of your preference this morning. Mrs. Hilda suggested something warm.
00:28:13There's chocolate, if you'd prefer it to tea.
00:28:38You have.
00:28:42This hand is still warm.
00:28:48I thought we might out to Ravenscurred Park before week's end. My mother has expressed a wish to receive you.
00:28:57Yes. I should like it that very much.
00:29:03I should propose Fridays, perhaps, for the fulfillment of our marital obligations.
00:29:14Yes. Friday would suit me perfectly well. I feel quite confident I shall be equal to my obligations by next
00:29:23Friday.
00:29:24Let's go.
00:29:25Let's go.
00:30:04Go on.
00:30:05Vale will see you in.
00:30:07I shall be long.
00:30:10Of course.
00:30:51I shall be long.
00:30:53She looks so young to find.
00:30:58Lady Adelaine, forgive the intrusion.
00:31:02I am...
00:31:11Lady Wyndon.
00:31:15I 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.
00:31:24That's her.
00:31:27Cecilia Marlowe.
00:31:28Lady Adelaine's goddaughter.
00:31:31The woman Edward wants life to love.
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, shall we?
00:31:46Lady Adelaide summoned me, yet 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.
00:32:13She carries herself as if she owns the place.
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.
00:32:33I 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.
00:32:44Not 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.
00:33:34Mother.
00:33:35Where on earth did you find her?
00:33:37She found me.
00:33:39I like her.
00:33:43So do I.
00:33:49Come in.
00:33:51Come 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, I am not entirely certain how one is meant to begin.
00:34:16Nor am I.
00:34:22I should warn you, there are rather a great many hooks.
00:34:25Twenty-three.
00:34:29I see.
00:34:44I confess, I don't quite know what I 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 to begin with.
00:35:08I did not realize how warm his hands would feel.
00:35:20Breathe.
00:35:21Breathe.
00:35:23You are going to suffocate yourself.
00:35:32Are you ready?
00:35:34Aye.
00:35:38I'll take that as a yes.
00:35:42Let's begin.
00:35:52Come.
00:36:05Come.
00:36:10Bye.
00:36:17God, I'll take that as a yes.
00:36:18I'm going to eat.
00:36:18I'll take that as a yes.
00:36:26All right, you absolutely must tell me everything.
00:36:31I've no idea what you mean.
00:36:32Elizabeth Winwyn, née 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.
00:36:43Was it?
00:36:44Was it Friday?
00:36:47You are incredible.
00:36:49I am your oldest friend and I deserve details.
00:36:51Was he...
00:36:52He was... considerate.
00:36:56Extraordinary so.
00:36:58How?
00:36:59He made quite certain that I was comfortable.
00:37:03Before anything else.
00:37:06Several 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.
00:37:24He 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.
00:38:11I...
00:38:13Lizzie.
00:38:14How can I pass?
00:38:27Same as ever.
00:38:29Still 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 Lemmerts.
00:38:42A 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...
00:38:54Edgar?
00:38:56I thought he was still in Italy.
00:38:58I don't know.
00:38:59I don't know.
00:39:00I don't know.
00:39:01I don't know.
00:39:03I don't know.
00:39:04I don't know.
00:39:06I am Lady Winford now, Mr. Lennox.
00:39:08I trust you will do me the kindness of remembering it.
00:39:11Forgive me.
00:39:11I 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 Windov.
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 Windare is worth ten of him.
00:39:36You know that, don't you?
00:39:39Come.
00:39:39The road is clear now.
00:39:47She was smiling at him.
00:39:48Did 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.
00:39:58And he will...
00:39:59Do 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.
00:40:30And he...
00:40:30He 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.
00:40:38He called her Lizzie.
00:40:39What was the man's name?
00:40:41Lennox.
00:40:42Edgar 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 country woman.
00:41:11Go home, Georgina.
00:41:16Edgar Lennox.
00:41:20My lady.
00:41:22His 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.
00:42:54He sent me away.
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?
00:43:13He leaves for Dutcher 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.
00:44:17East Wing, Old Timber Frames.
00:44:19Curtains 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 her charred bodies, he will surely return to me.
00:44:52Elizabeth!
00:44:53Elizabeth!
00:44:57Elizabeth!
00:45:06My lord!
00:45:07It began in the lower story.
00:45:08Where's Lady Winda?
00:45:09We have not been able to find Lady Winda, but we brought someone out from the East Wing.
00:45:15A man.
00:45:17Elizabeth!
00:45:18She's still inside.
00:45:24And just how are you so sure Lady Windam 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...
00:45:33What is that in your hand?
00:45:36Edward, it bears Elizabeth's handwriting.
00:45:39I received a note.
00:45:40I believed it to be...
00:45:41You believed it to be from my wife.
00:45:46Edward.
00:45:47You must see that all evidence points to Elizabeth and this man.
00:45:51Elizabeth is still inside.
00:45:52Of course she's inside.
00:45:53That wicked adulteress ought to be caged and paraded around the square.
00:45:58You want me?
00:45:59Edward!
00:46:03Miss, don't!
00:46:04It's not safe in there!
00:46:07My brother!
00:46:08Henry, 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!
00:46:30What 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 some 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, it shall be my god-begin right to walk all over you.
00:46:48My lady, his 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!
00:47:07No!
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!
00:47:40Elizabeth, go back.
00:47:53Foolish woman.
00:47:54Reckless man.
00:48:04I thought I'd lost you.
00:48:07You're safe.
00:48:10You're safe.
00:48:11You'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.
00:48:54Edward.
00:48:55That 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.
00:49:13She did all of this.
00:49:16Cecilia.
00:49:19She is my mother's goddaughter.
00:49:21She grew up around us.
00:49:23There was a time when certain arrangements were considered by my mother, by Cecilia's family.
00:49:30I knew they were in favor of him.
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,
00:49:59now 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.
00:50:10There are about two hours left until dawn.
00:50:12Perhaps you might like to watch the sun rise with me?
00:50:18Yes, I'd like that.
00:50:25May I?
00:50:27Yes, you may.
00:50:31May I?
00:50:36Lord, come to me.
00:50:38Yes, you may.
00:50:51My lord, the Douchage Duchess of Ravensburg has called upon you.
00:50:55I informed her that you are not at leisure, but she still has not taken her leave.
00:51:00Show her in, Henry.
00:51:08Thank you for seeing me, Edward.
00:51:09Say 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,
00:52:08cultivate my sister's trust, and forge 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, Vasilia.
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, and you will not come back.
00:52:37No, you can't treat me this way.
00:52:39I'm the Dowage Gunchess of Ravenshile.
00:52:42Do not forget that I am not just the Earl of Wyndham.
00:52:46I 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, Sushi.
00:52:55Do you love her?
00:52:57Yes, I 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, he's never been serious about anyone the way he is about you.
00:54:25I know.
00:54:25By the way, you 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, I 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 Wyndolin.
00:55:20Edgar.
00:55:22He's gone.
00:55:24I know.
00:55:25The King offered him a very generous commission.
00:55:28If he is a talented man, it 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.
00:56:01Elizabeth.
00:56:08Elizabeth!
00:56:10Elizabeth!
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.
00:57:08Yes, we are.
00:57:08This 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.
00:57:26And take a warm blanket.
00:57:27The mornings are cold now.
00:57:28I know I needn't thank the man I married.
00:57:32But I'd like to thank you on behalf of my mother, Edward.
00:57:37Edward.
00:57:44I'm sorry.
00:57:53I'll be right back.
00:57:53I'm sorry.
00:57:54I'm sorry.
00:57:54I'm sorry.
00:57:55I'm sorry.
00:57:55I'm sorry.
00:57:58I'm sorry.
00:58:01I'm sorry.
00:58:04I'm sorry.
00:58:06I'm sorry.
00:58:07I'm sorry.
00:58:07I'm sorry.
00:58:09I'm sorry.
00:58:14I don't know.
00:59:01I don't know.
00:59:02I don't know.
00:59:06This is my house.
00:59:08She doesn't leave without my permission.
00:59:13Are you challenging the Countess of Wyndham, Sir Reginald?
00:59:25I'm pregnant.
00:59:27You're pregnant.
00:59:30Oh, God bless you, my child.
00:59:36Mother.
00:59:39I want to take you to Thornwood.
00:59:42You'll come chasing after us.
00:59:45You know how he gets when he's angry.
00:59:48Then they sneak out when he's not looking.
01:00:06Margaret!
01:00:10Keep moving.
01:00:12Don't look back.
01:00:16Elizabeth!
01:00:21It's Edward!
01:00:37He's coming after us!
01:00:40Let him come.
01:00:46Lord Wyndham.
01:00:48What an honor.
01:00:49Though I must tell you, this is a family matter.
01:00:52It is for me as well.
01:00:54Lady Margaret leaves with us tonight,
01:00:55and you shall not follow her.
01:00:57She's my wife, Lord Wyndham.
01:00:59By law, she's required to...
01:01:01By law, yes.
01:01:04Shall we discuss law, Sir Reginald?
01:01:14Come in.
01:01:20My lord, I have come to take my wife home.
01:01:26These are private accounts, my lord. You have no right to...
01:01:28The Fenwood Estate carries debts to four creditors in this council.
01:01:33Two of those creditors sold their notes last month.
01:01:36To me.
01:01:36The roof you sleep under.
01:01:38The fields you work on.
01:01:39The horses in your stable.
01:01:41The papers holding your whole world together
01:01:43are sitting in my solicitor's office in Shrowsborough.
01:01:46My lord, I have always treated my family with the utmost...
01:01:51I have seen perfectly clearly how you treat your family.
01:01:55Lady Margaret's personal income will be administered through my estate,
01:01:59to be used as she pleases.
01:02:01If I receive word from any source that you have interfered with this agreement,
01:02:04you will lose your house, your land, and whatever is left of your name in this county.
01:02:14My wife sends her regards.
01:02:28He'll take me away, I know it.
01:02:31Oh lord, that man will never let me leave him.
01:02:34No.
01:02:36Edward will handle everything.
01:02:39I saw them in the study this morning.
01:02:41As did I.
01:02:44Elizabeth.
01:02:46Is he...
01:02:47Is he a good man, your lord?
01:02:59He's the best man I've ever met, mother.
01:03:00Oh, no.
01:03:13He's at you, not so um...
01:03:16He is a good man.
01:03:17No, he's a good man.
01:03:18Okay, my lord.
01:03:19Oh, my lord.
01:03:24I'm gonna go.
01:03:29I'm gonna have to hang out a day.
01:03:30I'm gonna help you.
01:03:32How long will you be gone for?
01:03:34Four months, perhaps.
01:03:39I don't wish to go.
01:03:41I know. I know you don't.
01:03:45Elizabeth, I...
01:03:47It's Friday, you know.
01:03:56I'll be gentle.
01:03:57So will I.
01:03:58I know. Don't be too gentle.
01:04:14Promise you'll write me.
01:04:17Every day.
01:04:35My lord, it is the 14th of March, and your child has spent this morning using my ribs as a
01:04:42set of piano keys.
01:04:43Dr. Holt says the baby is healthy, and that it shouldn't be much longer now.
01:04:47Come home soon, Edward.
01:04:50We both eagerly await your return.
01:04:59A letter from London, my lady, in his lordship's own hand.
01:05:07Elizabeth, your letter from the 8th arrived my morning.
01:05:11I have read it four times, front to back.
01:05:15Today I write to tell you I am coming home.
01:05:17I find I have a great deal to tell our child, and even more to tell you.
01:05:22Did you hear that, Edward?
01:05:25Our baby's ready to meet you.
01:05:28My lady, there are two gentlemen at the door.
01:05:31Officers, I believe.
01:05:32They are carrying a sealed summon.
01:05:42Lady Winverde, we are here to deliver a summons from His Royal Highness, the Prince Regent.
01:05:46Your presence is urgently required in London, and the matter is one of considerable importance.
01:05:53May I have the night to prepare?
01:05:55I'm afraid we cannot afford any delay, my lady.
01:05:58The carriage is prepared.
01:06:03Very well.
01:06:05Allow me five minutes to gather my things.
01:06:17My lady, the seal on this carriage.
01:06:20I need time to verify it.
01:06:25Lady Wyndham, I'm sure you don't want to anger the Prince Regent.
01:06:40That sound.
01:06:42This isn't the road to London, it's the cliff road.
01:06:48Stop this carriage!
01:06:50Stop the carriage!
01:06:51Immediately!
01:07:07Elizabeth!
01:07:22Take my hand!
01:07:23Take my hand!
01:07:45Edward!
01:07:46Yes?
01:07:47What is it?
01:07:48I think...
01:07:49I think the child is coming.
01:07:52Edward!
01:07:54Yes?
01:07:59What is it?
01:08:01I think...
01:08:02I think the child is coming.
