13:25don't insult my intelligence
13:27we must divorce
13:34if you want a divorce
13:35fine
13:36i will take my dowie with me
13:38i signed an agreement with you back then
13:40you could use my money to 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 have left now
13:47besides an earl title in this old house
13:49without me you can't even keep this house
13:53still want a divorce
13:58i know everything about your fling with that polish widow
14:01let's call it quits
14:09do you think he knows about this
14:11probably not
14:12it's too embarrassing
14:13if it were me i wouldn't even step out of the house
14:15not necessarily
14:16after all the earl isn't his real father either
14:19he should be used to it by now
14:20used to having multiple fathers
14:22little hastings searching for his daddies
14:24who are you talking about
14:25may i ask what were you just talking about
14:27so you really don't know
14:30that wantle mother of yours is famous all over england now
14:33what is that supposed to mean
14:35last week
14:36at least dozens of guests
14:37saw your mother screwing a yankee in your home with their own eyes
14:40say that again
14:42i said
14:43your mother is
15:07you haven't been home in a long time
15:09you should told me in advance
15:10so i could have them prepare
15:12this is mother's home not mine
15:17you shouldn't say that sebastian
15:21in the future
15:22everything of mother's will be yours
15:24including this home
15:26thank you but you know this is not what i want
15:31so what do you want
15:32i want a normal person's life
15:36what on earth do you mean by that
15:39wherever i go these days
15:41people whisper and point behind my back
15:46gossiping about my mother's affairs
15:48how i wish that when others talk about you
15:52i could reprimand them with a clear conscience
15:57but i cannot
16:00because i know my mother better than anyone
16:04are you accusing your mother
16:06if i hadn't secured a decent life for you
16:09you would still be selling sweet potatoes on new york's lower east street
16:12where i was born was not my choice
16:15at least i can choose where i die in the future
16:17really if i had a choice back then i wouldn't have given birth to you
16:21anyone can accuse me
16:22but you can't
16:24if i am truly that important

32:35unique
32:36even maids are allowed

32:38room now

32:40it's hard enough
32:41to find three able-hearted
32:42young men in an entire
32:43estate these days
32:45quite true
32:48evelyn
32:48pour some wine
32:50for miss ashworth
32:54i heard from my father
32:55that even the queen
32:57praised sebastian's bravery
32:58are you serious
33:00oh my goodness
33:02when will he ever
33:03cure himself
33:04of this dreadful habit
33:05of being overly modest
33:07you shouldn't say that
33:09nowadays old-fashioned
33:10gentlemen like sebastian
33:12are rarer than a rhino's
33:13hair
33:13i'd rather be knocked
33:15unconscious right now
33:16than listen to the two
33:17of them carry on
33:18with this chaprade
33:18i also think so
33:20and because he is so
33:22precious
33:22there are always those
33:23who hyper unrealistic
33:24fantasies about him
33:26madam
33:26what kind of lady
33:28do you think
33:28would be a suitable
33:29match for your son
33:30don't you already know
33:32the answer to that
33:34of all the noble ladies
33:35in england
33:36you are the only one
33:37i wrote
33:38a woman's intuition
33:43is indeed remarkably
33:44accurate
33:47by the way
33:47margaret
33:48i heard from your mother
33:50that your birthday
33:50is in a week

34:23ordinary maid
34:24oh
34:26i'm a very good
34:27judge of character
34:29madam i'm willing
34:30to bet that this
34:31maid of yours
34:31has quite a background
34:33is that so
34:35then i really ought
34:36to look into this
34:37little slut's background
34:46mother it's too hard

35:43earl ashrington carries great weight
35:46in london's social circles

36:51she is staying here
36:53if we don't even host a dinner
36:55for her birthday
36:55what would people say

39:48what an embarrassment
39:52i do not agree to this marriage
39:54miss ashworth
39:55my mother's decision does not represent my own
39:58if she insists on uniting our family
40:01then the only way is for my stepfather lord hastings
40:04to divorce her
40:07and marry into your family himself
40:13miss evelyn
40:14there is something i must say to you
40:16what words

40:40do you have anything you want to say to me
40:45seb what you said just now
40:47was it real
40:49or did you just do it to spite your mother
40:51it is real
40:59i actually
41:01i'm really not that good
41:04that doesn't sound like something you would say
41:07what if you discover that i'm
41:09actually a very bad person
41:11aren't you
41:13in my eyes you have always been a little troublemaker
41:19i told you my feelings not to burden you
41:22but to let you know that in this world you are no longer alone
41:35he is wonderful
41:37but not nearly enough to make me let go of my hatred
41:48stop right there
41:56did you sleep well last night
41:59of course madam
42:02that's why i actually admire you
42:06if i were you
42:09living under your enemy's roof
42:11i would sleep with one eye open wouldn't you
42:14you might as well sleep plainly madam
42:15mary elizabeth thornton
42:17born in 1921 new york
42:21father david thornton
42:23wealthy manhattan businessman
42:24mother katherine thornton
42:26sister sophia thornton
42:28when little mary was eight
42:29her governess and her gangster boyfriend
42:31collided to squeal the thorntons out of everything
42:33david thornton was beaten to death by lone harks
42:36sophia thornton was violated to death
42:38katherine thornton slit her wrists
42:40little mary was sent to an orphanage
42:46does this story sound familiar to you little mary
42:50doesn't it read just like a piece of tabloid news
42:54reading 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
43:03am i right
43:04i really didn't recognize that little bastard who cowered on her tiny bed
43:09watching me sleep with her father without daring to utter a single sound
43:13had grown up to be so big
43:16you knew i was awake
43:18i figured you did
43:19yes i knew
43:20your father took advantage of me and now my son takes advantage of you
43:24doesn't that make us even
43:24how is that the same no matter how wretched i am
43:27i would never compare myself to an old whore
43:29go ahead curse all you want
43:32compared to what i took from your family
43:33being insulted by you means absolutely nothing to me
43:36how tragic why does he have a mother like you
43:38in all these years has there been even a single moment when you felt a shred of guilt for what
43:42you did
43:45guilt
43:47oh young lady you are delightfully naive
43:49it is a dog eat dog world
43:51that old horny dog of a father of yours deserved to pay for his lust
43:55as for your sister
43:57she brought it upon herself dying in a swarm of men
44:00is that my fault
44:02and your useless mother a mother who cannot protect her own child doesn't deserve to live in this world anyway
44:07does she
44:07look at me
44:09i would do anything for my son
44:11you are absolutely right
44:14it is a dog eat dog world
44:16i was too naive to ask a mad dog if she felt guilt
44:21at this stage there's no need for me to kick you out is there
44:24if i see you tomorrow don't blame me for having you thrown out
44:37my dearest seb

52:35through her own hard work
52:35to become a maid
52:36wanting nothing more
52:37than to live an ordinary life
52:38however the defendant
52:39sebastian hastings
52:40used his status and power
52:41to commit an atrocious assault
52:43against this helpless woman
52:44on the night of the incident
52:45miss evelyn had just
52:46celebrated her birthday
52:47she regarded the defendant
52:48as a friend
52:49perhaps even more
52:50and the defendant
52:51exploited that trust
52:52the trust of a friend
52:54what did you see

52:55that night
52:57i i came out of the pub

52:59calling for help
53:00then i saw a young woman
53:01that lady over there
