Short filmTranscript
00:16Oh, dear God, keep it down.
00:19Don't wait, Mary.
00:23She won't.
00:24She won't know what we're doing.
00:27She's just a child.
00:33I was eight that year.
00:34I woke up and saw my gardeness messing around with my father, right there in my bedroom.
00:45Jane didn't just seduce my father.
00:47She swundled him out of every penny he had.
00:51My father was beaten to death by loan shark.
00:55My sister was assaulted and killed by them.
01:00My mother slit her wrists.
01:05Jane, oh Jane.
01:07I swear.
01:09Even if I have to go to hell, I will make you pay in blood.
01:34Hello.
01:35My name is Evelyn.
01:37I saw in the newspaper that you are looking for a maid.
01:39Jane, I'm here.
01:50Are you ready?
02:03You're from New Jersey, America.
02:05An orphan?
02:06Yes, madam.
02:07I grew up in an orphanage in New Jersey and later came to London.
02:12I worked as a maid for Mrs. Smith for three years.
02:15Why did you leave?
02:16Mr. Smith went to war and didn't come back.
02:18Mrs. Smith returned to America.
02:22You have a cheap but pretty face.
02:25It's a pity for you to be a maid.
02:27Not everyone can be as noble as you, madam.
02:30Well, since Lady Barton recommended you, I'll let you try.
02:35But if you don't do well, you will be fired.
02:40Since I'm here, I won't leave until I drag you to hell.
02:46By the way, I despise people who think they're clever.
02:49If you want to stay here, know your place as a maid.
02:53Madam, I only want to work hard and save enough money for my retirement.
02:57Very well.
02:58Run along now.
03:07You swindled my father out of everything.
03:10And the next thing you know, you're married to Lord Hastings?
03:14Jane, oh Jane, even Satan would envy your luck.
03:20Let me strip you back to what you truly are.
03:45It's been so late.
03:47And you are still working?
03:51My lord, madam asked me to organise these books tonight.
04:03Are you the new American girl?
04:08Yes, my lord.
04:09My name is Evelyn.
04:19Just arrived.
04:20Are you settling in?
04:22If you need anything, you can come to me.
04:33My lord, you are drunk.
04:35Let me call your valet to take you back to your room.
04:37No need for anyone else.
04:40You take me back.
04:42My lord, I am just a lowly maid.
04:44I have no right to enter the master's quarters.
04:47My lord, you need some water to sober up.
04:51A lowly maid, indeed.
04:54At least you know your place.
05:06My lady.
05:10I just saw my husband leaving.
05:14What did you talk about?
05:15My lord was drunk.
05:17He asked me to pour him a glass of water.
05:21I saw everything.
05:22At least you have some sense.
05:24It's my duty.
05:32Do you know what to do from now on?
05:34Yes, my lady.
05:35I will do my best to avoid Lord Hastings.
06:05Jane's Old Flame
06:07Sean O'Donnell, Westside, Manhattan, New York.
06:10After all these years,
06:11you two must miss each other terribly, don't you?
06:26Please send it as quickly as possible.
06:57You must be free.
06:58Have a cup of tea to warm up.
07:01I appreciate it.
07:03See that?
07:05Even in a backwater like this,
07:07there's a fine piece like her.
07:09She's like a soaked little cupcake.
07:17Hey, my beautiful little lady.
07:18Are you alone?
07:19Where are you from, huh?
07:21Oi, old Tom.
07:22Give this young lady some whiskey to ward off the cold.
07:24No, thank you.
07:25I don't drink.
07:38What's happening?
07:40Oh, sweetheart,
07:41you don't look well.
07:42Let me help you get some rest.
07:44Let me go.
07:55Take your hands off her.
07:59Sir, she's my sister.
08:02Say one more word, I'll shoot.
08:15Where do you live?
08:18Hastings Castle, please.
08:22Sir,
08:24your face
08:25is as cold as ice.
08:28Don't move.
08:29Sit still.
08:32Don't leave me alone.
08:34I hate the orphanage.
08:44Dammit, they drugged her.
08:59I can't do this.
09:01I'd be no better
09:01than those two creeps from just now.
09:18Where is this?
09:20You said you live here.
09:22Oh, right.
09:23I live here.
09:24I'm a maid here.
09:25Go on inside.
09:26Don't let anyone see you like this.
09:31Don't drink things
09:32from strangers again.
09:38Hastings Castle
09:39hasn't hosted
09:40a social bowl
09:41in a long time.
09:42The guests coming this time
09:43are all the Master's friends
09:45from London.
09:45We can't make any mistake.
09:47I wonder if that friend
09:48from New York
09:48will make it in time.
10:13You two better
10:14not disappoint me.
10:22My old flame.
10:24It's been years
10:25and you've gone
10:26and struck it rich.
10:36Antique room.
10:38See you there.
10:47Madam,
10:48there is a guest
10:49waiting for you
10:49in the antique room.
10:50He says he is
10:51an old friend of yours
10:52and has urgent matters
10:53to discuss with you.
10:54A friend?
10:54What is his name?
10:55He didn't say.
10:57Only said
10:57you would know
10:58when you saw him, Madam.
11:00Okay.
11:01You should go now.
11:05An old friend.
11:08Who could it be?
11:10No matter who he is,
11:12I'll just send him away.
11:27My dear Jay,
11:28long time no see.
11:30How come it's you?
11:35Why act so clueless?
11:37Didn't I come here
11:38at your beck and call?
11:42I don't know
11:42what you're talking about.
11:44There are guests
11:44everywhere outside right now.
11:45You must leave immediately.
11:47Who the fuck
11:48are you pretending
11:48to be noble for?
11:49The old count knows full well
11:50what kind of person you are
11:51and I do too.
11:52Want me to go speak
11:53with him about it?
11:54What do you want?
11:56No rush for other things.
11:58It's been so long.
11:59Let's catch up first.
12:14Let's catch up first.
12:36Oh my God!
12:38Oh my God!
12:46Oh my God!
12:47Oh my God!
12:49Is that Lady Hastings?
12:51Heavens.
12:51It's simply scandalous.
12:54I truly feel
12:55for Lord Hastings.
12:57He is such
12:57an upright man
12:58yet he's been subjected
12:59to such terrible humiliation.
13:01And Sebastian,
13:02he will also feel ashamed
13:03of his mother.
13:05Jane,
13:06didn't you love
13:07having people
13:07watch you in bed?
13:09You must have
13:10thoroughly enjoyed
13:10this show.
13:18Get a divorce.
13:22William,
13:22let me explain...
13:23No need!
13:23You have trampled
13:25on my dignity.
13:26Don't insult
13:26my intelligence.
13:28We must divorce.
13:34If you want to divorce,
13:35fine.
13:36I will take my
13:37dowie with me.
13:38I signed an agreement
13:39with you back then.
13:40You could use my money
13:41to run your estate.
13:42But if we ever divorce,
13:43I can take all of my money back.
13:45You'd better think about it.
13:46What does Hastings
13:47have left now
13:48besides an earl title
13:49in this old house?
13:50Without me,
13:50you can't even
13:50keep this house.
13:54Still want a divorce?
13:59I know everything
14:00about your fling
14:00with that Polish widow.
14:02Let's call it quits.
14:09Do you think
14:10he knows about this?
14:11Probably not.
14:12It's too embarrassing.
14:13If it were me,
14:14I wouldn't even
14:14step out of the house.
14:15Not necessarily.
14:16After all,
14:17the earl isn't
14:18his real father either.
14:19He should be used
14:20to it by now.
14:20Used to having
14:21multiple fathers,
14:22little Hastings
14:23searching for his daddies.
14:24Who are you talking about?
14:26May I ask,
14:27what were you just
14:27talking about?
14:28So you really don't know
14:30that wantal mother of yours
14:32is famous
14:32all over England now.
14:34What is that supposed to mean?
14:35Last week,
14:36at least dozens of guests
14:37saw your mother
14:38screwing a Yankee
14:39in your home
14:39with their own eyes.
14:41Say that again.
14:42I said,
14:43your mother is a...
15:08You haven't been home
15:08in a long time.
15:09You should told me
15:10in advance
15:11so I could have them prepare.
15:13This is mother's home,
15:14not mine.
15:17You shouldn't say that,
15:18Sebastian.
15:21In the future,
15:22everything of mother's
15:23will be yours,
15:24including this home.
15:27Thank you,
15:27but you know
15:28this is not what I want.
15:31So what do you want?
15:32I want a normal person's life.
15:36What on earth
15:37do you mean by that?
15:39Wherever I go these days,
15:42people whisper
15:43and point behind my back,
15:46gossiping about
15:47my mother's affairs.
15:48How I wish that
15:50when others talk about you,
15:52I could reprimand them
15:54with a clear conscience.
15:57But I cannot.
16:00Because I know
16:01my mother better
16:01than anyone.
16:04Are you accusing
16:05your mother?
16:07If I hadn't secured
16:08a decent life for you,
16:09you would still be selling
16:10sweet potatoes
16:11on New York's
16:12Lower East Street.
16:13Where I was born
16:13was not my choice.
16:15At least I can choose
16:16where I die in the future.
16:18Really?
16:18If I had a choice back then,
16:20I wouldn't have given birth
16:20to you.
16:21Anyone can accuse me,
16:23but you can't!
16:24If I am truly
16:25that important,
16:26please consider me
16:27before you indulge yourself
16:28in the future.
16:29So,
16:30this is where
16:31your weakness lies.
16:42It's you.
16:44Jane's son
16:45is actually him.
16:47Evelyn!
16:50Why are you still
16:51standing there
16:51instead of cleaning
16:52this up immediately?
17:09Young Master,
17:09they guessed me
17:10to bring you
17:10some warm milk.
17:12Young Master,
17:13this is the warm milk
17:14the kitchen asked me
17:15to bring to you.
17:16Thank you,
17:17but I do not have
17:17the habit of eating
17:18at night.
17:20Then,
17:21perhaps I could
17:22keep you company
17:22for a chat.
17:24Or,
17:25do something else.
17:28What is your name?
17:29Violet,
17:29my name is Violet.
17:31Young Master,
17:32Young Master,
17:32I was already here
17:33when you returned last year!
17:34Violet,
17:34go back to your room.
17:35Do not do this again
17:36in the future.
17:37Young Master,
17:37I...
17:38Please leave.
17:40Could you please
17:41not tell anyone?
17:42Especially,
17:43the mistress.
17:44I won't tell anyone.
17:51You saw everything?
17:53Yes, Young Master.
17:54I won't say a word.
17:56Your name is Evelyn?
17:57Yes, Young Master.
17:58Do you have any orders
17:59for me?
18:00No, nothing.
18:09Violet.
18:12Madam,
18:14what were you doing
18:15in the Young Master's room
18:16last night?
18:18Madam,
18:19I was only
18:20delivering milk.
18:23Dressed like a slut
18:25and you were only
18:26delivering milk.
18:27Do you take me
18:28for a fool?
18:29How did she find out?
18:32Madam,
18:33please don't throw me out!
18:34My father
18:35will beat me to death!
18:37Then let him
18:38beat you to death.
18:39Foolish,
18:39wishful-thinking idiot.
18:42You saw all that?
18:44Good.
18:44I hope you take it
18:45as a warning.
18:46Yes, Madam.
18:53I thought there
18:53would be some
18:54mutual understanding
18:55between people
18:55with similar fates.
18:56I know what you're
18:57suspecting,
18:58but I wasn't
18:59the informant.
19:00But only you
19:01saw it last night.
19:02If it wasn't you
19:03and it wasn't me,
19:04did she tell
19:05on herself?
19:06Master,
19:07I am not a detective.
19:08If you have
19:09suspicions,
19:09you should
19:10investigate them
19:10yourself.
19:12If you have
19:13no further orders,
19:14you should let me go.
19:16I don't want
19:17Madam to
19:17misunderstand me.
19:19Misunderstand you
19:19about what?
19:20Misunderstand that
19:21I am seducing you.
19:33that bitch.
19:34Trying to cut ties
19:35with me now
19:35that she's
19:36made it big?
19:37No way in hell.
19:43What should I do?
19:46I don't dare go home.
19:56Don't be scared.
19:58Your dad is useless,
19:59so I'll be your daddy.
20:00I won't beat you.
20:03No!
20:04No!
20:05Please!
20:06Help!
20:07Save me!
20:09Motherfuck!
20:19You bitch!
20:21How dare you hit me!
20:31You're much more
20:32exciting than that
20:33little girl.
20:41Let go of my sister!
20:50Let go of my sister!
20:52Let go of my sister!
21:05Evelyn!
21:14Don't be afraid,
21:15Evelyn.
21:16It's alright now.
21:21Evelyn!
21:24Not dead.
21:25Good.
21:27Dying would be
21:27too easy on you.
21:33That man,
21:34has he been sent away?
21:36The police will handle it.
21:38You don't need to worry.
21:39I knew it.
21:40You still care about
21:42your mother.
21:43You are my son,
21:44after all.
21:45You've lived in England
21:46for so long,
21:47yet you still keep
21:47your American humour.
21:49Of course I didn't
21:50do it for you.
21:54Where are you going?
21:56Back to my unit.
22:03He hates me.
22:04Perhaps you're
22:05overthinking it.
22:06A telegram just arrived.
22:08The Eighth Army
22:09is heading
22:09to North Africa.

26:58dream about his hometown's wheat fields and his cows when he woke up he found his leg was gone

27:56more than three days in the past it's been weeks now and he's in no hurry to return to london
28:00don't you find that unusual you've been at hastings for over 10 years haven't you
28:03i've always trusted you because you never keep secrets from me is that still true madam the young
28:08master has been going to the town hospital quite often these past few weeks what is he doing at the
28:13hospital he recommended evelyn to the town hospital to work as an aide for the wounded
28:19he did suddenly ask me to borrow a maid for charity work last time and i didn't think much of
28:23it no
28:23wonder i haven't seen that little girl around lately are you saying he's been fooling around with
28:28that little girl at the hospital oh madam i never said such a thing
28:40madam

29:42i apologize on behalf of my mother i'm sorry you don't need to apologize seb
29:48if you hadn't come to save me i should be thanking you if it weren't for me she wouldn't have
29:52hit you
29:53my mother is a terrible person will you distance yourself from me seb for fear of putting me in
29:59danger i won't because meeting you is the only good thing that has ever happened in my life
30:24i don't know what other crazy things she might do
30:27seb i can't why
30:30this doesn't align with my ideals
30:34what are your ideals
30:37to be an ordinary person living an ordinary life not a mistress eloping with a man
30:47i really didn't expect you'd dare to come back this is where i work of course i would return
30:54you think you can still stay here pack your things and get out right now that works too
31:01then i can live happily ever after with your son
31:05you little slut you shouldn't insult me anymore i'm very good at whispering in his ear you know
31:34what wind blew you here shouldn't you be upstairs entertaining our distinguished guest from
31:39a four at this hour
31:45you know very well i hate socializing yet you still tease me
31:49well what can we do the most charming lady of the social season has graced us with her presence
31:55if you're not there won't your heroic charms go to waste
32:00jealous
32:07my mother invited her it's obvious what they're up to that's why i suddenly have urgent military
32:14business and must go to london
32:17poor you
32:18come with me
32:20it'll save you from staying here and dealing with their spine
32:22seb i'm not a child i have to face many things on my own and have you forgotten i almost
32:28killed a
32:28piece of trash once wait for me to return
32:34your household is quite unique even maids are allowed to serve in the dining room now
32:40as you know it's hard enough to find three able-hearted young men in an entire estate these days
32:45quite true
32:48evelyn pour some wine for miss ashworth
32:54i heard from my father that even the queen praised sebastian's bravery are you serious
33:01oh my goodness when will he ever cure himself of this dreadful habit of being overly modest
33:08you shouldn't say that nowadays old-fashioned gentlemen like sebastian are rarer than a rhino's hair
33:14i'd rather be knocked unconscious right now than listen to the two of them carry on with this
33:18ship raid
33:19i also think so
33:21and because he is so precious there are always those who hyper unrealistic fantasies about him
33:26madam
33:27what kind of lady do you think would be a suitable match for your son
33:30don't you already know the answer to that
33:34of all the noble ladies in england you are the only one i wrote
33:41a woman's intuition is indeed remarkably accurate
33:47by the way margaret i heard from your mother that your birthday is in a week
33:52seb will surely be back by then
33:55we must celebrate your birthday a ball hunting a live band i know those are all things you love and
34:01excel at madam wouldn't that be too much trouble for you of course not seb loves hunting too i'll have
34:11him accompany you then
34:17you seem quite interested in her
34:22i just feel that she doesn't seem like an ordinary maid
34:24oh
34:26i'm a very good judge of character
34:29madam i'm willing to bet that this maid of yours has quite a background
34:33is that so
34:35then i really ought to look into this little slut's background
34:46mother it's too hard i don't want to learn
34:51darling don't you want to be a lady no sister can be the lady i want to be a female
34:58knight
35:00leave the hard things to me little mary should just do what she loves
35:05i want to ride horses i want to learn to hunt father where's the pony you promised to buy me
35:13father won't forget on your birthday i'll give you the pony and teach you how to hunt father is
35:21the best don't cry evelyn do not cry until you see blood red tears streaming from your enemy's eyes
35:35are you sure you want to host this birthday banquet
35:38margaret isn't even family why go to all this trouble precisely because she isn't we must
35:44earl ashrington carries great weight in london's social circles and if this marriage happens your
35:50estate your status and seb's future don't be too idealistic your son hasn't even agreed yet
35:56i know my son better than you do he values face and reputation far more than either of us
36:04face and reputation
36:10stop daydreaming this is the time for us to stand united on the day of the banquet you take care
36:16of
36:16welcoming the guests leave the rest to me
36:21do as you please
36:26you're back is your business in london finished
36:30why the urgency to call me back is something wrong
36:36margaret's birthday is coming up i want to host a birthday banquet for her here at the castle
36:41doesn't she have her own home she is our guest and your friend we can't just neglect her
36:47she is not my friend we are barely even acquaintances
36:51be that as it may she is staying here if we don't even host a dinner for her birthday what
36:56would people
36:56say you must think of the hastings family's reputation
37:00do as you wish if there's nothing else i'm going back to london you must attend
37:08on what grounds i know you dislike socializing but you are the young master of the hastings family
37:14if you don't show up on such an occasion what will others think
37:20i couldn't care less how about this you can bring evelyn with you i know you care about that girl
37:27but if you want her to be your companion you should also let her see the world very well
37:43young master there is a call for you
37:49sebastian speaking hello this is the detective agency we have the results of the investigation you requested
37:59is something on your mind my melancholy prince i remember you saying you grew up in an orphanage
38:04yes actually in a sense i'm just like you you are an orphan with no parents and i
38:13am an orphan with a mother has something happened i'm sorry why are you apologizing my mother wants to
38:22host a birthday banquet for margaret and asked me to bring you along i took it upon myself to agree
38:28on your behalf sure i'd love to go with you
38:47do i look good without a doubt
38:51let's go
38:59our hero has arrived evelyn you look stunning tonight thank you madam

39:27families will soon be united in marriage my son sebastian will be betrothed to miss margaret
39:36congratulations miss margaret congratulations young master hastings is the hero of ella lumbia
39:40lord hastings congratulations i was wondering why sebastian brought a maid along i know right
39:46dressed more decently than the young lady herself what an embarrassment
39:52i do not agree to this marriage miss ashworth my mother's decision does not represent my own
39:58if she insists on uniting our family then the only way is for my stepfather lord hastings
40:04to divorce her and marry into your family himself
40:13miss evelyn there is something i must say to you what words i love you evelyn no matter what i
40:21love you
40:24are these tears to think i still have such things
40:32sebastian do you have anything you want to say to me
40:45seb what you said just now was it real or did you just do it to spite your mother it
40:52is real
40:59i actually i'm really not that good that doesn't sound like something you would say
41:07what if you discover that i'm actually a very bad person aren't you in my eyes you have always
41:14been a little troublemaker i told you my feelings not to burden you but to let you know that in
41:24this
41:24world you are no longer alone
41:35he is wonderful but not nearly enough to make me let go of my hatred
41:48stop right there
41:56did you sleep well last night of course madam that's why i actually admire you
42:06if i were you living under your enemy's roof i would sleep one eye open wouldn't you you might as

42:36sophia thornton was violated to death katherine thornton slit her wrists little mary was sent to an orphanage
42:46does this story sound familiar to you little mary doesn't it read just like a piece of tabloid news
42:55reading these letters even i felt like shedding a tear or two for poor little mary
43:00so you came here for revenge from the very first day am i right i really didn't recognize that little
43:07bastard who cowered on her tiny bed watching me sleep with her father without daring to utter a single
43:12sound had grown up to be so big you knew i was awake i figured you did yes i knew
43:20your father took
43:21advantage of me and now my son takes advantage of you doesn't that make us even how is that the
43:25same no
43:26matter how wretched i am i would never compare myself to an old whore go ahead curse all you want

43:41moment
43:41when you felt a shred of guilt for what you did guilt oh young lady you are delightfully naive

43:55his lust

44:02your useless
44:03mother a mother who cannot protect her own child doesn't deserve to live in this world anyway does
44:07she look at me i would do anything for my son you are absolutely right it is a dog eat
44:15dog world

52:10you not know him at all to be frank the only good thing you've ever done in your life was

52:14to and raising this son but to be even frankly you do not deserve a good son status reputation or
52:20any of
52:21those noble things
52:29your honor the victim in this case miss evelyn grew up in an orphanage with no parents and no one
52:33to rely
52:34on she came to england through her own hard work to become a maid wanting nothing more than to live
52:37an ordinary life however the defendant sebastian hastings used his status and power to commit an
52:42atrocious assault against this helpless woman on the night of the incident miss evelyn had just
52:46celebrated her birthday she regarded the defendant as a friend perhaps even more and the defendant
52:51exploited that trust the trust of a friend what did you see near the crime scene that night
52:57i i came out of the pub and heard someone calling for help then i saw a young woman that
53:02lady over
53:02there running toward me barefoot trembling all over crying so hard she couldn't speak when you saw her
53:07what did she say she she pointed at a car parked on the roadside saying the man inside
53:11raped her and did you see the defendant at that time yes i did he was sitting inside that luxury
53:15car
53:16what was he doing at the time uh he was smoking he looked quite relaxed didn't offer any explanation
53:20no he just sat there smoking mr hastings do you have anything to say
53:28no speak up tell them you didn't
53:36defendant this court will give you one more chance
53:39if you remain silent this court will rule that you have pleated guilty by default
53:46your honor i may i may i say something if it has nothing to do with this case then please
53:52don't
53:52it it is about the defendant
53:57please speak master hastings that is the defendant he he would never commit rape never
54:06master hastings is a decent gentleman he he never even let us maids enter his bedroom
54:13he also saved me he saved me he saved me and evelyn
54:22your honor i also have something to say about the defendant and the victim what testimony do you have
54:30to offer just like that young lady i absolutely do not believe the defendant would commit rape
54:35do you have any evidence it goes like this last year around october this miss evelyn came to my pub
54:43to
54:43seek shelter from the rain at the time there were two notorious scoundrels in my pub seeing how beautiful
54:48this lady was they secretly drugged her drink uh just as the scoundrels were about to take her away mr
54:52hastings scared them off with a gun i asked him afterwards aren't you afraid of going to prison for hurting
54:56someone i remember him saying uh he said ruining a rapist is worth going to prison for look at me
55:01seb
55:01if you just look at me now i will give up all my revenge look at me and there is
55:06one more thing
55:08later he helped the young lady out of the pub go on sir when i went out to throw away
55:13the trash
55:13uh i saw the lady i saw the lady throwing herself at him but he pushed her away right then
55:20your honor my son is innocent it's all that woman's fault she framed my son you should arrest her
55:27send her to prison order your honor i plead guilty no no defendant what did you say i plead guilty
55:38i raped evelyn it is absolutely true
55:51since the defendant has voluntarily pleaded guilty this court will recess immediately for final
55:56deliberations why why on earth did you plead guilty a son pays his mother's debts you you know
56:04everything from now on you don't have a son upon deliberation between this court and the jury
56:11the defendant is hereby sensed to three years in prison
56:23my lady you don't have to sign it now you can take your time to consider
56:34i have no son anymore what's the use of a son useless
