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, 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. 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.
00:01:47I know.
00:01:50Miss, you can't go in like this.
00:01:52There's no time.
00:01:57There's no time.
00:02:07There's no time.
00:02:07Lessons will be taken to heaven again.
00:02:07Oops but isn't it.
00:02:13There's no place...
00:02:13There's no place..
00:02:22There's no place before the Holy Ghost and стал inside.
00:02:33That is not Jane Fenric, 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?
00:02:51Please, how could you replace my legitimate daughter and have Elizabeth marry the Earl instead?
00:02:56How dare you!
00:02:57Regina, please, not here.
00:03:00People will sin.
00:03:02Miss Fenric.
00:03:04Yes, my lord.
00:03:05You are not Miss Jane Fenric.
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.
00:03:20I have no right to ask anything of you, but...
00:03:26Marry me.
00:03:27Please, I'm begging you.
00:03:35Marry me.
00:03:36Ladies and gentlemen.
00:03:38I thank you for your attendance this morning.
00:03:40It is my honour to present to you...
00:03:44...my bride.
00:03:57On the night of my sister's wedding...
00:04:00...I 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.
00:04:35Is this some kind of punishment?
00:04:38For taking my sister's place?
00:04:49No, no.
00:05:00No, no.
00:05:02No, no, no, no.
00:05:02No, no, no.
00:05:09I'm not going to be a good friend.
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? When 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? I 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? The one picking strawberries. Come here.
00:06:19Are you speaking to me?
00:06:21Of course. Who else could I be speaking to?
00:06:23I'm speaking to you.
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?
00:07:19You'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.
00:07:40Give this to Lady Windward.
00:07:43And...
00:07:44I'm not conscious.
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.
00:08:04Deliberate.
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.
00:08:13What?
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 farzical wedding?
00:08:26What right do you have?
00:08:28Today you sit in my garden.
00:08:29At my table, drinking tea you brought yourself and you didn't so announce your arrival.
00:08:33If 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 properly hot, not scolded.
00:08:42My lady, the 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.
00:08:54Lady Dorothea, Lord Edward has made it clear that now that he is married,
00:08:58all visitors are to be received only with Lady Wineweald'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.
00:09:41What 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? She 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? 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.
00:10:12What 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.
00:10:47Elizabeth.
00:10:49Consider 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.
00:11:16Oh, no.
00:11:17Oh, no.
00:11:20Oh, no.
00:11:29Stop!
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.
00:11:50My Lord, this is...
00:11:51I can explain.
00:11:54Please do not.
00:11:58You may...
00:11:59You may...
00:12:00You may turn around now.
00:12:06My Lord!
00:12:08This is entirely unnecessary.
00:12:09I assure you, I am quite capable of...
00:12:12You are barefoot on Flint.
00:12:14Kindly be still.
00:12:22My Lord.
00:12:24I'm here.
00:12:26I still owe you an explanation.
00:12:28Are you willing to hear it now?
00:12:32As you can see, I'm 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?
00:12:58Nothing 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,
00:13:17including 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...
00:14:36If you're willing...
00:14:37To have a true marriage.
00:14:39In every sense.
00:14:43In every sense?
00:14:45Is he asking me to bear an heir for the Wyndham line?
00:14:50Come 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?
00:16:09Edward.
00:16:19This isn't helpful.
00:16:20This isn't helpful.
00:16:47Better.
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.
00:18:26Good evening, Miss Vane. Mr. Bellamy.
00:18:30Rupert and I have some happy news.
00:18:32We're to be formally engaged at the McEelmus 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.
00:19:00A 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 fiancée 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. Bellany.
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. Bellaman.
00:21:06Leave these grounds at once.
00:21:09And 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 Wind had 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.
00:22:07I 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.
00:22:15Miss Vane, you will address me correctly or you will not address me at all.
00:22:20You are not worth the courtesy.
00:22:37My lord, thank god you're here.
00:22:40Lady Winford approached Rupert herself.
00:22:42We were only trying to...
00:22:44When did he arrive?
00:22:45How much did he hear?
00:22:46Does he believe them?
00:22:48Are 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 Weidemann really ruined a hundred-year-old young maize?
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!
00:23:29What?
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've over fifty others just like you.
00:23:55You 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...
00:24:13I know.
00:24:14I 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 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.
00:24:55You have my permission.
00:25:00It's all right.
00:25:02He'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.
00:26:02Come in.
00:26:05There's something I must tell you.
00:26:07It concerns a domestic matter.
00:26:11I 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.
00:26:24Come.
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.
00:26:44Yes.
00:26:45Stop apologising.
00:26:47Yes, very well.
00:26:51Elizabeth.
00:27:19Elizabeth.
00:27:20Elizabeth.
00:27:20Elizabeth.

00:28:01there's something wrong

00:28:10I wasn't certain of your preference this morning
00:28:12Mrs. Hilda suggested something warm

00:28:58yes

00:29:23equal to my obligations
00:29:24by next Friday
00:29:25here
00:29:26I
00:29:27I
00:29:30I
00:29:42I
00:29:43I
00:29:43I
00:29:44I
00:30:05Go on, if Vael will see you in, I shall be long.
00:30:12Of course.
00:30:37I shall be long.
00:30:52That's Edward's mother.
00:30:54She looks so young to find.
00:30:59Lady Adelaine, forgive the intrusion.
00:31:03I am...
00:31:13Lady Wyndon.
00:31:16I had wondered when we should meet.
00:31:19I am Cecilia.
00:31:21Lady 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.
00:31:30Lady Adelaine's goddaughter.
00:31:32The woman Edward wants life.
00:31:37Your grace, the pleasure is mine.
00:31:40Please, 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, is in the South Garden, shall we?
00:31:48Lady Adelaine summoned me, yet 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, let's see whether your aim has suffered.
00:32:23I've been waiting here for our guest, as my mother asked.
00:32:26Elizabeth, this is Georgiana.
00:32:28We call her Georgie.
00:32:28Georgie, this is Elizabeth.
00:32:30Ah, the new Lady Wyndham.
00:32:32And what do you do for amusement?
00:32:33I read.
00:32:34I 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.
00:32:41No offense, 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.
00:32:58You 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.
00:33:20You had three.
00:33:22I shall not be greedy.
00:33:36Mother.
00:33:37Where 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.
00:34:00She had no intention of neglecting you today.
00:34:03I understand.
00:34:05Georgiana and the Duchess of Ravensbrow made the afternoon quite agree upon.
00:34:11It's Friday.
00:34:12So it is.
00:34:14I 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 there are rather a great many hooks.
00:34:30I see.
00:34:35I 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
00:35:08to begin with
00:35:10I did not realize how warm his hands would feel
00:35:22breathe
00:35:25you are going to suffocate yourself
00:35:34are you ready?
00:35:35I
00:35:40I'll take that as a yes
00:35:44let's begin
00:36:13I'll take that as a yes
00:36:27all right
00:36:28you absolutely must tell me everything
00:36:33I've no idea what you mean
00:36:34Elizabeth Winwen
00:36:35née 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 incredible
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?
00:37:01he made quite certain that I was
00:37:03comfortable
00:37:05way before 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
00:37:23only 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
00:38:01perhaps we ought to wait for someone to pass by
00:38:15Lizzie
00:38:16how come possible?
00:38:29same as ever
00:38:31still finding trouble on a perfectly straight road
00:38:33the road found me

00:38:38of course you were
00:38:39you always were
00:38:42Edgar Lennox
00:38:43a viscous 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
00:39:12forgive me I had not heard of the marriage
00:39:16I hope you are well Lady Wind
00:39:17I am
00:39:18thank you
00:39:19give my regards to Lord Wyndove
00:39:30six years without a word
00:39:31and 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
00:39:55that 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
00:40:17Edward there's something I must tell you
00:40:19it concerns your wife
00:40:20good morning to you too Georgina
00:40:23I was riding this morning
00:40:24along the north road
00:40:26I saw her
00:40:27with a man
00:40:28they were standing awfully close together
00:40:30and he
00:40:30close together you say
00:40:31why yes
00:40:32and he 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
00:40:43Edgar Lennox
00:40:45I've heard of this Edgar Lennox
00:40:46the Viscount's son
00:40:47the one who has been off painting in Italy
00:40:49for the past six years
00:40:50then you must also know
00:40:51that he and Elizabeth were once
00:40:52you followed her
00:40:53no
00:40:54I just happened to be passing by
00:40:56Georgiana
00:41:00Elizabeth is Lady Windworm
00:41:01she is the mistress of this house
00:41:02whom 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
00:41:08to 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
00:41:26as to whether you might be
00:41:26at leisure this afternoon
00:41:28did he indicate the purpose
00:41:30of said inquiry
00:41:30he said he'd like to
00:41:32and I quote precisely
00:41:33take you out for a ride
00:41:34he mentioned the North Meadow
00:41:38please convey to his lordship
00:41:39that I shall be ready
00:41:40in twenty minutes
00:41:40of course my lady
00:41:50Georgiana paid me a visit
00:41:51this morning
00:41:52I imagine she did not call upon you
00:41:54to converse about the weather
00:41:56you encountered Edgar Lennox
00:41:57on the north road this morning
00:42:04I did
00:42:05our carriage came to grief
00:42:07in the mud
00:42:07he assisted with freeing the wheel
00:42:12Georgiana is young
00:42:13and her emotions have been known
00:42:14to obscure her judgment
00:42:15I thought you should know
00:42:16that I sent her right away
00:42:18he didn't ask me to ride
00:42:20because he sought to question me
00:42:21it's because he wished to inform me
00:42:24he 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
00:42:33you need not thank me
00:42:36Edgar Lennox has spent six years in Italy
00:42:38he may want to consider spending six more
00:42:41the further he remains from my wife
00:42:43the better
00:42:51I cannot believe this
00:42:53he sent me away
00:42:58tell me what happened
00:43:03he accused me of following her
00:43:05he is a loyal man
00:43:06always has been
00:43:07and now his loyalty
00:43:08is wasted on the wrong person
00:43:11has he any engagements
00:43:12away from Thornwood
00:43:15he leaves for Dutcher on Thursday
00:43:19he will surely be thinking of his new bride
00:43:21each moment he's away from her
00:43:30Edward chose her
00:43:35very well
00:43:36then let him see the true nature
00:43:38of this choice
00:43:49she still harbors feelings for me
00:43:51she 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
00:44:25has ever cared to preserve
00:44:26and now a single oil lamp
00:44:28shall 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 Window
00:45:12we have not been able to find Lady Window

00:45:16from the east wing
00:45:17a man

00:45:21she's still inside
00:45:27and just how are you so sure Lady Window is in there

00:45:51points to Elizabeth and this man
00:45:53Elizabeth is still inside
00:45:54of course she's inside
00:45:56that wicked adult
00:45:57she ought to be caged
00:45:57and paraded around the square

00:54:51the night of the fire
00:54:53I saw him run into the flames to look for you

00:56:13Elizabeth
00:56:13Elizabeth
00:56:13Elizabeth
00:56:13Elizabeth
00:56:13Elizabeth Elizabeth!
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.
00:57:09Yes.
00:57:11Yes, we are.
00:57:12This is beyond my wildest dreams, Elizabeth.
00:57:18I'm sure you will want to tell your mother.
00:57:24I shall have the carriage prepared for Thursday.
00:57:27Vale will accompany you.
00:57:29And take a warm blanket.
00:57:31The mornings are cold now.
00:57:32I know I needn't thank the man I married.
00:57:35But I'd like to thank you on behalf of my mother, Edward.
00:57:43I'm sure this is going to be a ship.
00:57:46Oh, my God.
00:57:48The boys and the children areушки.
00:57:53Bye-bye.
00:57:54Bye-bye.
00:57:54Bye-bye.
00:57:54Bye-bye.
00:57:55Bye-bye.
00:57:55Bye-bye.
00:57:55Bye-bye.
00:57:56Bye-bye.
00:57:59Bye-bye.
00:58:00Bye-bye.
00:58:04Bye-bye.
00:58:05I don't know.
00:58:35I don't know.
00:58:51Mother!
00:58:57Ah, Elizabeth. To what do we owe the pleasure?
00:59:05Come with me, Mother. Now.
00:59:10This is my house. She doesn't leave without my permission.
00:59:17Are you challenging the Countess of Wyndham, Sir Reginald?
00:59:29I'm pregnant.
00:59:31You're pregnant! Oh, God bless you, my child!
00:59:40Mother.
00:59:42I want to take you to Thornwood.
00:59:46You'll come chasing after us. You know how he gets when he's angry.
00:59:52Then we sneak out when he's not looking.
01:00:09Margaret!
01:00:14Keep moving. Don't look back.
01:00:20Elizabeth!
01:00:26It's Edward!
01:00:41He's coming after us!
01:00:43Let him come.
01:00:50Lord Wyndham. What an honour.
01:00:53Though I must tell you, this is a family matter.
01:00:56It is for me as well.
01:00:57Lady Margaret leaves with us tonight, and you shall not follow her.
01:01:01She's my wife, Lord Wyndham. By 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. You 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.
01:01:39To 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 Shrowsborough.
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.
01:01:58Lady 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,
01:02:08you will lose your house, your land, and whatever is left of your name in this county.
01:02:18My wife sends her regards.
01:02:31He'll take me away, I know it.
01:02:34Oh lord, that man will never let me leave him.
01:02:37No.
01:02:40Edward will handle everything.
01:02:42I saw them in the study this morning.
01:02:44As did I.
01:02:48Elizabeth.
01:02:50Is he...
01:02:51Is he a good man, your lord?
01:03:02He's the best man I've ever met, mother.
01:03:04No, no, no, no.
01:03:15I'll take you.
01:03:19tienes que tomarme con la, hombre.
01:03:22No.
01:03:22No.
01:03:23No.
01:03:25No.
01:03:26No.
01:03:30No.
01:03:33No.
01:03:36How 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.
01:03:49Elizabeth, I...
01:03:50It's Friday, you know.
01:03:59I'll be gentle.
01:04:01So will I.
01:04:02Okay. Don't be too gentle.
01:04:18Promise you'll write me.
01:04:21Every day.
01:04:38My lord, it is the 14th of March, and your child has spent this morning using my ribs as a
01:04:45set of piano keys.
01:04:47Dr. Holt says the baby is healthy, and that it shouldn't be much longer now.
01:04:51Come home soon, Edward.
01:04:53We both eagerly await your return.
01:05:03A letter from London, my lady, in 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, there 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.
01:05:57May I have the night to prepare?
01:05:59I'm afraid we cannot afford any delay, my lady.
01:06:02The carriage is prepared.
01:06:06Very well.
01:06:09Allow me five minutes to gather my things.
01:06:21My lady, the 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.
01:06:44That 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!
01:07:49Edward!
01:07:50Yes?
01:07:51What is it?
01:07:52I think...
01:07:53I think the child is coming.
01:07:56No!
01:07:58No!
01:07:59No!
01:08:02No!
01:08:03No!
01:08:04No!
01:08:04No!
01:08:05No!
01:08:07No!
01:08:07No!
01:08:07No!
01:08:08No!
01:08:09No!
01:08:10No!
01:08:13My lord, this lodge is currently occupied by his royal highness.
01:08:17Move.
01:08:18No!
01:08:21No!
01:08:31No!
01:08:32No!
01:08:33No!
01:08:35No!
01:08:36No!
01:08:36No!
01:08:36No!
01:08:36No!
01:08:38No!
01:08:39No!
01:08:40No!
01:08:42No!
01:08:43I've been informed about the incident on the cliff road, the carriage, the summons.
01:08:46Who was it?
01:08:46A widow, recently 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.
01:09:02Thank you, Your Highness.
01:09:03And for this, for allowing us in, don'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.
01:09:11She sounds like a formidable woman.
01:09:16That's one way to put it.
01:09:25My Lord, Lady Windery is well.
01:09:28You have a son.
01:09:40He has your eyes.
01:09:45Why am I there?
01:09:56Her Royal Highness, the Princess Regent.
01:10:07Jane.
01:10:08Jane.
01:10:09Jane.
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?
01:10:43There 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.
01:10:53Gave 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.
01:10:59Then 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 estowed upon a couple.
01:11:41A husband.
01:11:42And wife.
01:11:44Good heavens!
01:11:45A 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,
01:12:38I hereby elevate Lord Edward Wyndham and Lady Elizabeth Wyndham to the rank of Marcus and Marchiance of Thornfield.
