11:48the old count knows full well what kind of person you are
11:50and i do too
11:51want me to go speak with him about it
11:53what do you want
11:55no rush for other things
11:57it's been so long
11:58let's catch up first
12:06who the fuck are you
12:35Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, is that
12:49Lady Hastings?
12:50Heavens, simply scandalous.
12:53I truly feel for Lord Hastings. He is such an upright man, yet he's been subjected to such terrible humiliation.
13:00And Sebastian, he will also feel ashamed of his mother.
13:04Jane, didn't you love having people watch you in bed? You must have thoroughly enjoyed this show.
13:17Get a divorce.
13:20William, let me explain.
13:22No need. You have trampled on my dignity. Don't insult my intelligence. We must divorce.
13:33If you want a divorce, fine. I will take my dowie with me.
13:37I signed an agreement with you back then. You could use my money to run your estate.
13:41But if we ever divorce, I can take all of my money back.
13:44You'd better think about it. What does Hastings have left now besides an earl title in this old house?
13:48Without me, you can't even keep this house.
13:52Still want a divorce?
13:58I know everything about your fling with that Polish widow. Let's call it quits.
14:07Do you think he knows about this?
14:10Probably not.
14:11It's too embarrassing. If it were me, I wouldn't even step out of the house.
14:14Not necessarily.
14:15After all, the earl isn't his real father either. He should be used to it by now.
14:19Used to having multiple fathers? Little Hastings searching for his daddies?
14:23Who are you talking about? May I ask, what were you just talking about?
14:27So you really don't know, that wantal mother of yours is famous all over England now.
14:33What is that supposed to mean?
14:34Last week, at least dozens of guests saw your mother screwing a Yankee in your home with their own eyes.
14:40Say that again.
14:41I said, your mother is a...
15:06You haven't been home in a long time.
15:08You should have told me in advance, so I could have them prepare.
15:12This is mother's home, not mine.
15:16You shouldn't say that, Sebastian.
15:19In the future, everything of mother's will be yours, including this home.
15:25Thank you, but you know this is not what I want.
15:30So what do you want?
15:31I want a normal person's life.
15:34What on earth do you mean by that?
15:37Wherever I go these days, people whisper and point behind my back.
15:45Gossiping about my mother's affairs.
15:47How I wish that when others talk about you, I could reprimand them with a clear conscience.
15:55But I cannot.
15:59Because I know my mother better than anyone.
16:03Are you accusing your mother?
16:05If I hadn't secured a decent life for you, you would still be selling sweet potatoes on New York's Lower
16:11East Street.
16:11Where I was born was not my choice.
16:14At least I can choose where I die in the future.
16:16Really?
16:17If I had a choice back then, I wouldn't have given birth to you.
16:20Anyone can accuse me, but you can't!
16:23If I am truly that important, please consider me before you indulge yourself in the future.
16:29So, this is where your weakness lies.
16:41It's you.
16:42Jane's son is actually him.
16:46Evelyn!
16:48Why are you still standing there instead of cleaning this up immediately?
17:07Young Master, they guessed me to bring you some warm milk.
17:10Young Master, this is the warm milk the kitchen asked me to bring to you.
17:15Thank you, but I do not have the habit of eating at night.
17:19Then, perhaps I could keep you company for a chat.
17:23Or do something else.
17:26What is your name?
17:28Violet. My name is Violet.
17:29Young Master. Young Master, I was already here when you returned last year.
17:32Violet, go back to your room. Do not do this again in the future.
17:35Young Master, I...
17:36Please leave.
17:39Could you please not tell anyone?
17:41Especially the mistress.
17:43I won't tell anyone.
17:50You saw everything?
17:51Yes, Young Master.
17:53I won't say a word.
17:55Your name is Evelyn?
17:56Yes, Young Master. Do you have any orders for me?
17:59No, nothing.
18:08Violet.
18:11Madam.
18:13What were you doing in the Young Master's room last night?
18:17Madam, I was only delivering milk.
18:22Dressed like a slut, and you were only delivering milk.
18:26Do you take me for a fool?
18:28How did she find out?
18:31Madam, my, please don't throw me out!
18:33My father will beat me to death!
18:35Then let him beat you to death.
18:37Foolish, wishful-thinking idiot.
18:41You saw all that?
18:42Good.
18:43I hope you take it as a warning.
18:45Yes, madam.
18:51I thought there would be some mutual understanding between people with similar fates.
18:55I know what you're suspecting, but I wasn't the informant.
18:59But only you saw it last night.
19:00If it wasn't you, and it wasn't me, did she tell on herself?
19:05Master, I am not a detective.
19:07If you have suspicions, you should investigate them yourself.
19:11If you have no further orders, you should let me go.
19:15I don't want Madam to misunderstand me.
19:17Misunderstand you about what?
19:19Misunderstand that I am seducing you.
19:31That bitch, trying to cut ties with me now that she's made it big?
19:35No way in hell.
19:41What should I do?
19:45I don't dare go home.
19:55Don't be scared.
19:56Your dad is useless, so I'll be your daddy.
19:59I won't beat you.
20:01No, no.
20:03Please, help.
20:05Save me.
20:07Mudfuck.
20:18You bitch.
20:20How dare you hit me?
20:30You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:32You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:33You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:34You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:40You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:46You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:46You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:47You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:48You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:48You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:49You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:50You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:53You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:56You're much more exciting than that little girl.
21:03Evelyn.
21:12Don't be afraid, Evelyn.
21:14It's all right now.
21:19Evelyn.
21:22Not dead. Good.
21:25Dying would be too easy on you.
21:31That man, has he been sent away?
21:35The police will handle it. You don't need to worry.
21:38I knew it. You still care about your mother.
21:41You are my son, after all.
21:43You've lived in England for so long, yet you still keep your American humor.
21:48Of course I didn't do it for you.
21:53Where are you going?
21:54Back to my unit.
22:01He hates me.
22:03Perhaps you're overthinking it.
22:04A telegram just arrived.
22:06The Eighth Army is heading to North Africa.

22:26things are at the front.
22:28Madam is so worried she can't even eat.
22:30Yes, and not just Madam.
22:32Many young men from the town have gone to the front.
22:34Everyone is worried sick right now.
22:35Luckily, I'm an only child,
22:37so I don't have to go to the front.

31:42you know very well i hate socializing yet you still tease me
31:47well what can we do
31:49the most charming lady of the social season has graced us with her presence
31:53if you're not there won't your heroic charms go to waste
31:58jealous
32:05my mother invited her
32:06it's obvious what they're up to
32:09that's why i suddenly have urgent military business and must go to london
32:15poor you
32:16come with me
32:17it'll save you from staying here and dealing with their spine
32:20seb i'm not a child
32:21i have to face many things on my own
32:24and have you forgotten i almost killed a piece of trash once
32:27wait for me to return
32:31your household is quite unique
32:34even maids are allowed to serve in the dining room now
32:37as you know it's hard enough to find three able-hearted young men in an entire estate these days
32:42quite true
32:45evelyn pour some wine for miss ashworth
32:52i heard from my father that even the queen praised sebastian's bravery
32:56are you serious
32:58oh my goodness
33:00when will he ever cure himself of this dreadful habit of being overly modest
33:05you shouldn't say that
33:07nowadays old-fashioned gentlemen like sebastian are rarer than a rhino's hair
33:11i'd rather be knocked unconscious right now than listen to the two of them carry on with this
33:16i also think so
33:19and because he is so precious there are always those who hyper unrealistic fantasies about him
33:23madam
33:25what kind of lady do you think would be a suitable match for your son
33:28don't you already know the answer to that
33:31of all the noble ladies in england you are the only one i wrote to
33:39a woman's intuition is indeed remarkably accurate
33:44by the way margaret i heard from your mother that your birthday is in a week
33:49seb will surely be back by then
33:52we must celebrate your birthday a ball hunting a live band i know those are all things you love
33:59and excel at madam
34:01wouldn't that be too much trouble for you
34:04of course not
34:06seb loves hunting too
34:07i'll have him accompany you then
34:15you seem quite interested in her

43:20you doesn't that make us even how is that the same no matter how wretched i am i would never

43:39guilt for what you did

44:01protect her own child doesn't deserve to live in this world anyway does she look at me

48:47Help me!
48:48I've been raped!
49:00My lady, the young master, he has been taken away by the police.
49:07What did you say?
49:08They say it's rape in Worcestershire.
49:11That maid Evelyn reported to the police.
49:16You say that again?
49:18Evelyn accused the young master of raping her.
49:22The young master has been arrested.
49:24My lady, my lady, someone come quickly, call a doctor!
49:30The doctor has been. He said you're fine, just suffered a shock.
49:33A lawyer. Get me a lawyer, the best one.
49:36Right now.
49:37Indeed, we need a lawyer.
49:39Aside from cleaning up your son's mess, I am divorcing you.
49:42What did you say?
49:43At a time like this, how can you say such a thing?
49:47Yes, I've had enough of you, Jane. Had enough.
49:49Aren't you afraid I won't leave you a single penny?
49:53Do as you please.
49:59Sebastian!
50:02Mr. Hastings, I am the lawyer hired by your mother.
50:05I need to know what happened so I can defend you.
50:08Mr. Hastings, can you tell me what happened that night?
50:12Sebastian, speak!
50:14Tell the lawyer you're innocent!
50:15You've been framed!
50:17Please say something!
50:19Please take me back.
50:26Well, well.
50:27You sent my son to prison, yet you're in the mood to sit here and read?
50:31What a pity.
50:31The one who belongs in prison is you.
50:35In the orphanage, you have to fight for your food.
50:38An old hag like you wants to hit me?
50:43Look at yourself, the noble countess.
50:47My son is innocent.
50:48He never hurt you.
50:50He loves you so much.
50:51Can you please let him go?
50:52Your son is innocent?
50:53Then what about my sister?
50:55What about my mother?
50:57Speak!
50:58Who did they ever hurt?
50:59Which one of them wasn't innocent?
51:01I was wrong.
51:02I only did it to give my son a better life.
51:05Seeing how wonderful he is now, can you please...
51:07No.
51:09What on earth will it take for you to let him go?
51:12Drop dead.
51:13As long as you are dead, I'll let him go.
51:21You filthy little whore.
51:23One day you will go to hell just like your parents.
51:29My lady, I am a lawyer from Sir Thompson's firm.
51:32I have been commissioned by Earl Hastings to discuss the divorce proceedings with you.
51:37Divorce?
51:42Please take a seat.
51:43She needs some time to process this.
51:47Must you discuss this with me right now?
51:51Rationally speaking, now is the most appropriate time.
51:53I can't have Sebastian going to prison carrying the Hastings name, can I?
52:01Now you see why I must have a divorce?
52:03Seb is innocent.
52:04That little siren framed him.
52:06You are his stepfather.
52:07Do you not know him at all?
52:08To be frank, the only good thing you've ever done in your life was giving birth to and raising this
52:11son.
52:12But to be even frankly, you do not deserve a good son, status, reputation, or any of those noble things.
52:26Your Honour, the victim in this case, Miss Evelyn grew up in an orphanage with no parents and no one
52:30to rely on.
52:30She came to England through her own hard work to become a maid, wanting nothing more than to live an
52:34ordinary life.
52:35However, the defendant, Sebastian Hastings, used his status and power to commit an atrocious assault against this helpless woman.
52:40On the night of the incident, Miss Evelyn had just celebrated her birthday.
52:44She regarded the defendant as a friend, perhaps even more, and the defendant exploited that trust, the trust of a
52:50friend.
52:50What did you see near the crime scene that night?
52:53I came out of the pub and heard someone calling for help.
52:57Then I saw a young woman, that lady over there, running toward me barefoot, trembling all over, crying so hard
53:02she couldn't speak.
53:03When you saw her, what did she say?
53:04She pointed at a car parked on the roadside, saying the man inside raped her.
53:08And did you see the defendant at that time?
53:10Yes, I did. He was sitting inside that luxury car.
53:12What was he doing at the time?
53:14He was smoking. He looked quite relaxed.
53:16Didn't offer any explanation?
53:17No, he just sat there, smoking.
53:20Mr. Hastings, do you have anything to say?
53:24No.
53:25Speak up! Tell them you didn't!
53:32Defendant, this court will give you one more chance.
53:35If you remain silent, this court will rule that you have pleaded guilty by default.
53:42Your Honor, I...
53:44May I... may I say something?
53:46If it has nothing to do with this case, then please don't.
53:49It... it is about...
53:50the defendant.
53:54Please speak.
53:55Master Hastings, that is, the defendant.
53:59He... he would never commit rape.
54:00Never.
54:02Master Hastings...
54:04is a decent gentleman.
54:06He... he never even let us maids enter his bedroom.
54:09He also...
54:11saved me.
54:12He saved me and Evelyn.
54:18Your Honor, I also have something to say.
54:21About the defendant...
54:22and...
54:23the victim.
54:24What testimony do you have to offer?
54:27Just like that young lady, I absolutely do not believe the defendant would commit rape.
54:31Do you have any evidence?
54:34It goes like this.
54:35Last year, around October, this Miss Evelyn came to my pub to seek shelter from the rain.
54:40At the time, there were two notorious scroundrels in my pub.
54:43Seeing how beautiful this lady was, they secretly drugged her drink.
54:47Just as the scoundrels were about to take her away, Mr. Hastings scared them off with a gun.
54:50I asked him afterwards, aren't you afraid of going to prison for hurting someone?
54:53I remember him saying, uh, he said,
54:55ruining a rapist is worth going to prison for.
54:57Look at me, Seb.
54:58If you just look at me now, I will give up all my revenge.
55:01Look at me.
55:02And there is one more thing.
55:05Later, he helped the young lady out of the pub.
55:07Go on, sir.
55:08When I went out to throw away the trash, uh, I saw the lady...
55:11I saw the lady throwing herself at him.
55:14Uh, but he pushed her away right then!
55:17Your Honor!
55:17My son is innocent!
55:19It's all that woman's fault!
55:21She framed my son!
55:22You should arrest her!
55:23Order!
55:24Send her to prison!
55:25Order!
55:27Your Honor, I plead guilty.
55:30No!
55:31No.
55:32Defendant, what did you say?
55:34I plead guilty.
55:35I raped Evelyn.
55:37It is absolutely true.
55:47Since the defendant has voluntarily pleaded guilty,
55:50this court will recess immediately for final deliberations.
55:53Why?
55:54Why on earth did you plead guilty?
55:56A son pays his mother's debts.
55:59You...
55:59You know everything?
56:01From now on, you don't have a son.
56:05Upon deliberation between this court and the jury,
56:08the defendant is hereby sensed to three years in prison.
56:19My lady, you don't have to sign it now.
56:21You can take your time to consider.
56:30I have no son anymore.
56:32What's the use of a son?
56:34Useless.
56:37Everything is gone.
56:39Everything has been taken away.
56:41That's fine.
56:42Peace and quiet.
56:43I am the Countess.
56:45Even though I have nothing left,
56:46I am still the Countess.
56:47Ha ha ha ha ha!
57:11Is it very busy today?
57:12You all look so exhausted.
57:15Yes.
57:15Many wounded soldiers have been sent from the front line.
57:23Miss Evelyn!
57:25Jack!
57:26What are you doing here?
57:27I came to visit some old comrades.
57:29I heard they were sent here.
57:30Oh, by the way,
57:31Captain Sebastian went to the front line this time too.
57:33Do you have any news of him?
57:35You haven't heard?
57:35I thought you two were quite close.
57:37Has he gone to war?
57:39Is he doing okay?
57:41Don't worry.
57:42Captain Sebastian fights very bravely.
57:44He'll definitely return in triumph.
57:46Fights bravely.
57:47You really didn't have to comfort me.
57:51Excuse me, is this Lord Hastings?
57:53Speaking.
57:53May I ask who is calling?
57:56Good afternoon, Lord Hastings.
57:57It's Evelyn.
57:58Good afternoon.
57:59To what do I owe the pleasure of your call, miss?
58:01Do you know how Seb is doing lately?
58:05Oh, you want to know how Sebastian is doing?
58:08His sentence was cut short,
58:09and he has been recalled to the front line.
58:17If you would like to pray,
58:18you are welcome to join us inside.
58:21I've never believed in God.
58:22Can I still pray?
58:24Anyone can pray to God.
58:29I would trade all the remaining wishes of my life
58:32just for his safe return.
58:33Just for his safe return.
58:54Just for his safe return.
