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.
01:36I 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.
02:14Why did you leave?
02:16Mr. Smith went to war and didn't come back.
02:18Mrs. Smith returned to America.
02:21You 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.
02:31Well, 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.
02:52Madam, I only want to work hard and save enough money for my retirement.
02:57Very well. Run 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.
03:46And you are still working?
03:51My lord, madam, ask me to organise these books tonight.
04:03Are you the new American girl?
04:07Yes, my lord.
04:09My name is Evelyn.
04:18Just arrived. Are you settling in?
04:21If you need anything, you can come to me.
04:33My lord, you are drunk. Let me call your valet to take you back to your room.
04:36No need for anyone else.
04:39You take me back.
04:42My lord, I am just a lowly maid. I have no right to enter the master's quarters.
04:47My lord, you need some water to sober up.
04:50A lowly maid, indeed.
04:53At least you know your place.
05:06My lady.
05:10I just saw my husband leaving.
05:13What did you talk about?
05:15My lord was drunk. He asked me to pour him a glass of water.
05:20I saw everything.
05:22At least you have some sense of my duty.
05:31Do you know what to do from now on?
05:33Yes, my lady.
05:34I will do my best to avoid Lord Hastings.
06:03I will do my best to avoid Lord Hastings.
06:05Jane's old flame, Sean O'Donnell, Westside, Manhattan, New York.
06:09After all these years, you two must miss each other terribly, don't you?
06:26Please, send it as quickly as possible.
06:56You must be free.
06:58Have a good reason, dear. Have a cup of tea to warm up.
07:00Thank you. I appreciate it.
07:03See that?
07:04Even in a backwater like this, there's a fine piece like her.
07:09She's like a soaked little cupcake.
07:16Hey, my beautiful little lady. Are you alone?
07:19Where are you from, huh?
07:21Oi, old Tom, give this young lady some whiskey to ward off the cold.
07:24No, thank you. I don't drink.
07:40Oh, sweetheart, you don't look well.
07:42Let me help you get some rest.
07:43Let me go.
07:55Take your hands off her.
07:58Sir, she's my sister.
08:02Say one more word, I'll shoot.
08:15Where do you live?
08:17Hastings Castle, please.
08:21Sir, your face is as cold as ice.
08:27Don't move. Sit still.
08:31Don't leave me alone.
08:33I hate the orphanage.
08:43Damn it, they drugged her.
08:59I can't do this.
09:00I'd be no better than those two creeps from just now.
09:18Where is this?
09:19You said you live here.
09:21Oh, right. I live here. I'm a maid here.
09:24Go on inside. Don't let anyone see you like this.
09:30Don't drink things from strangers again.
09:37Hastings Castle hasn't hosted a social bowl in a long time.
09:41The guests coming this time are all the master's friends from London.
09:45We can't make any mistake.
09:46I wonder if that friend from New York will make it in time.
10:12You two better not disappoint me.
10:21My old flame.
10:23It's been years and you've gone and struck it rich.
10:35Antique room.
10:37See you there.
10:39See you there.
10:46Madam, there is a guest waiting for you in the antique room.
10:50He says he is an old friend of yours and has urgent matters to discuss with you.
10:53A friend? What is his name?
10:55He didn't say. Only said, you would know when you saw him, madam.
11:00Okay. You should go now.
11:05An old friend.
11:07Who could it be?
11:10No matter who he is, I'll just send him away.
11:26My dear Jay, long time no see.
11:29How come it's you?
11:34Why act so clueless?
11:36Didn't I come here at your beck and call?
11:41I don't know what you're talking about.
11:43There are guests everywhere outside right now.
11:45You must leave immediately.
11:46Who the fuck are you pretending to be noble for?
11:49The old count knows full well what kind of person you are, and I do too.
11:52Want 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.
11:59Let's catch up first.
12:15Let's catch up first.
12:35Oh my god!
12:37Oh my god!
12:44Oh my god!
12:45Oh my god!
12:47Oh my god!
12:48Is that Lady Hastings?
12:50Heavens.
12:50It's 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.
13:21William, let me explain.
13:22No need. You have trampled on my dignity. Don't insult my intelligence. We must divorce.
13:33If you want to 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?
13:49Without me, you can't even keep this house.
13:53Still want a divorce?
13:58I know everything about your fling with that Polish widow. Let's call it quits.
14:08Do you think he knows about this?
14:10Probably not.
14:11It's too embarrassing.
14:12If 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.
14:18He should be used to it by now.
14:19Used to having multiple fathers?
14:21Little Hastings searching for his daddies?
14:23Who are you talking about?
14:25May I ask, what were you just talking about?
14:27Well, so 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...
15:07You 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.
15:20In the future, everything of mother's will be yours, including this home.
15:26Thank you, but you know this is not what I want.
15:30So what do you want?
15:32I want a normal person's life.
15:35What on earth do you mean by that?
15:37Wherever I go these days, people whisper and point behind my back, gossiping about my mother's affairs.
15:47How I wish that when others talk about you, I could reprimand them with a clear conscience.
15:56But 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.
16:12Where 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.
16:43Jane'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.
17:11Young 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.
17:20Then, 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.
17:33Violet, go back to your room.
17:34Do 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.
17:57Do 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!
18:36Then let him beat you to death.
18:37Foolish, wishful-thinking idiot.
18:41You saw all that?
18:43Good.
18:43I hope you take it as a warning.
18:44Yes, Madam.
18:51I thought there would be some mutual understanding between people with similar fates.
18:55I know what you're suspecting.
18:57But I wasn't the informant.
18:59But only you saw it last night.
19:01If 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.
19:14I don't want Madam to misunderstand me.
19:18Misunderstand you about what?
19:19Misunderstand that I am seducing you.
19:31That bitch.
19:33Trying to cut ties with me now that she's made it big?
19:36No 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.
19:58So I'll be your daddy.
19:59I won't beat you.
20:01No.
20:03No.
20:03Please.
20:04Help.
20:05Save me.
20:07Motherfuck.
20:18You bitch.
20:20How dare you hit me!
20:30You're much more exciting than that little girl.
20:40Let go of my sister!
20:49Let go of my sister!
20:50Let go of my sister!
21:04Evelyn.
21:13Don't be afraid, Evelyn.
21:14It's all right now.
21:20Evelyn.
21:23Not dead. Good.
21:25Dying would be too easy on you.
21:32That 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.
22:02He hates me.
22:03Perhaps you're overthinking it.
22:05A telegram just arrived.
22:06The Eighth Army is heading to North Africa.
22:10Good God.
22:12The Eighth Army has arrived in North Africa.
22:15General Montgomery,
22:16I wonder how things 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.
22:36Luckily, I'm an only child, so I don't have to go to the front.
22:39You know, the opponent is Roman.
22:45I'm going to pray.
22:46Are you coming?
22:47Of course.
22:48I'll join you.
22:49I'll head back first, just to have a lot of work to do.
23:06You must come back alive.
23:19I'll head back first.
23:38You're finally back.
23:39All right.
23:40Let our great hero go inside and rest.
23:42Young Master Sebastian is truly young and promising.
23:46The hero of El Almadi.
23:48Let you bastards try and mock me now.
23:58You're the star of the show tonight.
23:59Don't just drink a lullo and share some of your glorious experiences with everyone.
24:02Tonight's roasted lamb chops remind me of the smell of my comrades being blown to pieces.
24:24Shouldn't you be at the victory banquet?
24:26Shouldn't you be in the kitchen?
24:29Is there a name you recognize on here?
24:32Their names aren't on here, but their souls must be.
24:36I received a letter a couple of days ago.
24:39Two friends I knew from the orphanage.
24:40Both lost their lives in North Africa.
24:44Are you all right?
24:46We won.
24:47How could I not be all right?
24:49You slipped away from the banquet just because you didn't want to pretend, didn't you?
24:52I'll leave you to it.
24:54I should head back.
24:57If you want to talk, I'm willing to listen.
25:19Master, do you have any orders?
25:21Don't call me Master anymore.
25:23Then what should I call you?
25:25Just call me Seb.
25:26Madam won't be pleased if she finds out.
25:30Would it make you happy to call me that?
25:35Then it would make me happy too.
25:38Then I'll call you that in secret.
25:39Let it be our secret, Seb.
25:43The town hospital is recruiting volunteers to accompany Wounded Soul.
25:46That is, just to talk with them.
25:48Would you like to go?
25:48I would, but...
25:50I'll speak to the butler for you.
25:51You don't have to worry.
26:06You know, in the desert at night, the stars are incredibly bright.
26:09Though I've never seen it, I can imagine.
26:11But they are so bright, it's terrifying.
26:13Because you don't know if you'll still be alive to see the memorial.
26:17It's all over now.
26:22She seems to possess a power.
26:24A power to catch those who are falling.
26:27Mr. Hastings, the volunteer you sent last week.
26:30Miss Evelyn, she's absolutely wonderful.
26:31All the soldiers love her.
26:33I'm glad we could help.
26:34She's so young, yet she has such patience.
26:37Some people come and want to leave after five minutes.
26:39But she can sit there all afternoon.
26:42That amputee soldier hadn't spoken to anyone for three days since he got here.
26:46But once she arrived, he actually started talking.
26:51How was today?
26:53One soldier said he was knocked unconscious on the battlefield and had a beautiful dream about his hometown's wheat fields
26:57and his cows.
27:00When he woke up, he found his leg was gone.
27:02I'm sorry to make you listen to these things every day.
27:04The suffering needs to be heard.
27:08Do you need someone to listen to you too?
27:11It's alright if you don't.
27:12Whenever you're ready, I'll be here to listen.
27:26Don't leave me.
27:27I hate the orphanage.
27:34What is happening to me?
27:44Madam, what are your orders?
27:45What has the young master been doing these past few days?
27:47The young master?
27:49Nothing out of the ordinary.
27:50That's devilish strange.
27:52Have you ever known him to stay here for more than three days in the past?
27:55It's been weeks now and he's in no hurry to return to London.
27:58Don't you find that unusual?
27:59You've been at Hastings for over ten years, haven't you?
28:01I've always trusted you because you never keep secrets from me.
28:04Is that still true?
28:05Madam, the young master has been going to the town hospital quite often these past few weeks.
28:10What is he doing at the hospital?
28:12He recommended Evelyn to the town hospital to work as an aide for the wounded.
28:17He did suddenly ask me to borrow a maid for charity work last time and I didn't think much of
28:21it.
28:21No wonder I haven't seen that little girl around lately.
28:23Are you saying he's been fooling around with that little girl at the hospital every day?
28:28Oh, madam, I never said such a thing.
28:38Madam!
28:45What are you doing here?
28:47Madam, I am a volunteer.
28:49A volunteer?
28:50You're a lowly maid.
28:52What business do you have volunteering?
28:55Madam, please conduct yourself with dignity.
28:59You dare lecture me?
29:03You old whore.
29:04Do you want to hit me again?
29:05You little bitch!
29:07How dare you insult me?
29:08Madam, you're getting old.
29:10You've grown so very slow.
29:20It was this little bitch.
29:22Enough!
29:27From this moment on, don't let me ever see you hit or abuse anyone again.
29:33Otherwise, I will hate you as I hate an enemy.
29:35Mother.
29:40I apologize on behalf of my mother.
29:42I'm sorry.
29:43You don't need to apologize, Seb.
29:46If you hadn't come to save me, I should be thanking you.
29:49If it weren't for me, she wouldn't have hit you.
29:51My mother is a terrible person.
29:53Will you distance yourself from me, Seb?
29:55For fear of putting me in danger?
29:57I won't.
29:59Because meeting you is the only good thing that has ever happened in my life.
30:10Come away with me.
30:14Go?
30:16Where?
30:17Anywhere.
30:18London, Scotland, France.
30:20As long as you're willing, we can leave this place.
30:22But why leave?
30:22I don't know what other crazy things she might do.
30:25Seb, I can't.
30:27Why?
30:28This doesn't align with my ideals.
30:32What are your ideals?
30:34To be an ordinary person living an ordinary life.
30:38Not a mistress eloping with a man.
30:45I really didn't expect you'd dare to come back.
30:49This is where I work.
30:50Of course I would return.
30:52You think you can still stay here?
30:54Pack your things and get out.
30:57Right now.
30:58That works too.
30:59Then I can live happily ever after with your son.
31:03You little slut!
31:04You shouldn't insult me anymore.
31:07I'm very good at whispering in his ear, you know?
31:17You think you've won, you little bitch?
31:20It's far from over.
31:32What wind blew you here?
31:34Shouldn't you be upstairs entertaining our distinguished guest from before at this hour?
31:42You know very well I hate socialising yet you still tease me.
31:47Well, what can we do?
31:49Well, 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.
31:59Jealous.
32:01Jealous.
32:05My mother invited her.
32:07It'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.
32:18It'll save you from staying here and dealing with their spine.
32:20Seb, I'm not a child.
32:22I 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.
32:43Quite true.
32:46Evelyn, pour some wine for Miss Ashworth.
32:52I heard from my father that even the Queen praised Sebastian's bravery.
32:57Are 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.
33:12I'd rather be knocked unconscious right now than listen to the two of them carry on with this chaprade.
33:17I also think so.
33:18And because he is so precious, there are always those who hyper unrealistic fantasies about him.
33:24Madam, what 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.
33:55A ball, hunting, a live band.
33:58I know those are all things you love and excel at.
34:00Madam, wouldn't that be too much trouble for you?
34:04Of course not.
34:06Seb loves hunting too.
34:08I'll have him accompany you then.
34:15You seem quite interested in her.
34:19I just feel that she doesn't seem like an ordinary maid.
34:22Oh?
34:23I'm a very good judge of character.
34:27Madam, I'm willing to bet that this maid of yours has quite a background.
34:31Is that so?
34:33Then I really ought to look into this little slut's background.
34:44Mother, it's too hard.
34:46I don't want to learn.
34:48Darling, don't you want to be a lady?
34:51No.
34:52Sister can be the lady.
34:54I want to be a female knight.
34:58Leave the hard things to me.
35:00Little Mary should just do what she loves.
35:03I want to ride horses.
35:05I want to learn to hunt.
35:06Father, where is the pony you promised to buy me?
35:11Father won't forget.
35:13On your birthday, I'll give you the pony and teach you how to hunt.
35:18Father is the best.
35:20Don't cry, Evelyn.
35:21Do not cry until you see blood-red tears streaming from your enemy's eyes.
35:33Are you sure you want to host this birthday banquet?
35:36Margaret isn't even family.
35:37Why go to all this trouble?
35:39Precisely because she isn't.
35:40We must.
35:42Earl Asherington carries great weight in London's social circles.
35:45And if this marriage happens,
35:48your estate, your status, and Seb's future...
35:50Don't be too idealistic.
35:52Your son hasn't even agreed yet.
35:54I know my son better than you do.
35:57He values face and reputation far more than either of us.
36:02Face and reputation.
36:08Stop daydreaming.
36:09This is the time for us to stand united.
36:12On the day of the banquet, you take care of welcoming the guests.
36:15Leave the rest to me.
36:18Do as you please.
36:24You're back.
36:24Is your business in London finished?
36:27Why the urgency to call me back?
36:29Is something wrong?
36:34Margaret's birthday is coming up.
36:35I want to host a birthday banquet for her here at the castle.
36:39Doesn't she have her own home?
36:40She is our guest.
36:42And your friend.
36:43We can't just neglect her.
36:44She is not my friend.
36:46We are barely even acquaintances.
36:48Be that as it may, she is staying here.
36:51If we don't even host a dinner for her birthday, what would people say?
36:55You must think of the Hastings family's reputation.
36:58Do as you wish.
36:59If there's nothing else, I'm going back to London.
37:02You must attend!
37:05On what grounds?
37:07I know you dislike socializing.
37:10But you are the young master of the Hastings family.
37:12If you don't show up on such an occasion, what will others think?
37:17I couldn't care less.
37:19How about this?
37:21You can bring Evelyn with you.
37:23I know you care about that girl.
37:25But if you want her to be your companion, you should also let her see the world.
37:31Very well.
37:41Young master, there is a call for you.
37:47Sebastian speaking.
37:48Hello, this is the detective agency.
37:50We have the results of the investigation you requested.
37:56Is something on your mind, my melancholy prince?
38:00I remember you saying you grew up in an orphanage.
38:02Yes.
38:04Actually, in a sense, I'm just like you.
38:06You are an orphan with no parents.
38:08And I am an orphan with a mother.
38:13Has something happened?
38:15I'm sorry.
38:16Why are you apologizing?
38:18My mother wants to host a birthday banquet for Margaret and ask me to bring you along.
38:24I took it upon myself to agree on your behalf.
38:27Sure, I'd love to go with you.
38:45Do I look good?
38:46Without a doubt.
38:49Let's go.
38:56Our hero has arrived.
39:00Evelyn, you look stunning tonight.
39:02Thank you, madam.
39:12Distinguished guests, thank you all for joining us tonight to celebrate Miss Margaret Ashworth's
39:18birthday.
39:18On this beautiful occasion, I would like to make an announcement.
39:22The Hastings and Ashworth families will soon be united in marriage.
39:27My son, Sebastian, will be betrothed to Miss Margaret.
39:33Miss Margaret.
39:34Congratulations!
39:34Miss Margaret, congratulations.
39:36Young Master Hastings is the hero of El Alambly.
39:38Lord Hastings, congratulations.
39:40I was wondering why Sebastian brought a maid along.
39:43I know, right?
39:44Dressed more decently than the young lady herself.
39:46What an embarrassment.
39:49I do not agree to this marriage.
39:52Miss Ashfield, my mother's decision does not represent my own.
39:56If she insists on uniting our family, then the only way is for my stepfather, Lord
40:01Hastings, to divorce her, and marry into your family himself.
40:10Miss Evelyn, there is something I must say to you.
40:14What words?
40:15I love you, Evelyn.
40:17No matter what, I love you.
40:22Are these tears?
40:24To think I still have such things?
40:29Sebastian!
40:30Do you have any idea what you are doing?
40:38Do you have anything you want to say to me?
40:43Seb, what you said just now, was it real?
40:46Or did you just do it to spite your mother?
40:49It is real.
40:57I actually...
40:58I'm really not that good.
41:01That doesn't sound like something you would say.
41:04What if you discover that I'm actually a very bad person?
41:09Aren't you?
41:10In my eyes, you have always been a little troublemaker.
41:17I told you my feelings not to burden you,
41:20but to let you know that in this world, you are no longer alone.
41:33He is wonderful.
41:35But not nearly enough to make me let go of my hatred.
41:45Stop right there.
41:54Did you sleep well last night?
41:56Of course, madam.
42:00That's why I actually admire you.
42:04If I were you,
42:06living under your enemy's roof,
42:08I would sleep with one eye open, wouldn't you?
42:11You might as well speak plainly, madam.
42:13Mary Elizabeth Thornton.
42:15Born in 1921, New York.
42:19Father David Thornton, wealthy Manhattan businessman.
42:21Mother Catherine Thornton.
42:24Sister Sophia Thornton.
42:25When Little Mary was eight,
42:27her governess and her gangster boyfriend
42:28collided to squeal the Thorntons out of everything.
42:31David Thornton was beaten to death by lone harks.
42:34Sophia Thornton was violated to death.
42:36Catherine Thornton slit her wrists.
42:38Little Mary was sent to an orphanage.
42:44Does this story sound familiar to you, Little Mary?
42:47Doesn't it read just like a piece of tabloid news?
42:52Reading these letters,
42:53even I felt like shedding a tear or two
42:55for poor little Mary.
42:57So, you came here for revenge from the very first day.
43:01Am I right?
43:02I really didn't recognize that little bastard
43:04who cowered on her tiny bed,
43:06watching me sleep with her father
43:08without daring to utter a single sound,
43:10had grown up to be so big.
43:13You knew I was awake.
43:15I figured you did.
43:16Yes, I knew.
43:18Your father took advantage of me
43:19and now my son takes advantage of you.
43:21Doesn't that make us even?
43:22How is that the same?
43:23No matter how wretched I am,
43:24I would never compare myself to an old whore.
43:26Go ahead, curse all you want.
43:29Compared to what I took from your family,
43:31being insulted by you means absolutely nothing to me.
43:33How tragic.
43:34Why does he have a mother like you?
43:36In all these years,
43:37has there been even a single moment
43:38when you felt a shred of guilt for what you did?
43:43Guilt!
43:44Oh, young lady, you are delightfully naive.
43:47It is a dog-eat-dog world.
43:49That old horny dog of a father of yours
43:51deserved to pay for his lust.
43:53As for your sister,
43:54she brought it upon herself,
43:56dying in a swarm of men.
43:57Is that my fault?
43:59And your useless mother?
44:01A mother who cannot protect her own child
44:02doesn't deserve to live in this world anyway, does she?
44:05Look at me.
44:06I would do anything for my son.
44:09You are absolutely right.
44:11It is a dog-eat-dog world.
44:13I was too naive to ask a mad dog if she felt guilt.
44:19At this stage, there's no need for me to kick you out, is there?
44:21If I see you tomorrow,
44:22don't blame me for having you thrown out.
44:34My dearest Seb,
44:36since the day you left home,
44:37I have departed from the castle
44:39and checked into the Red Lion Inn in town.
44:41Next Tuesday is my birthday.
44:43If you could come,
44:44I would be overjoyed.
44:46Yours, Evelyn.
44:56It is a pleasure to serve you,
44:57my beautiful lady.
45:02Where are we going?
45:04You'll see when we get there.
45:14Look at that!
45:18What a gorgeous horse.
45:21Do you like it?
45:22I love it!
45:23This has been my birthday since I was a child.
45:26Come.
45:27Let me teach you how to ride.
45:34Don't be nervous.
45:35I'm right here.
45:40You know, Seb,
45:41ever since I was small,
45:42my dream was to be a knight.
45:45I know.
45:54It's so heavy.
45:57Align the sight here,
45:59steady your breathing,
46:00and then
46:01pull the trigger.
46:07I hit it!
46:08Sam, did you see that?
46:09I saw.
46:11My girl is the best.
46:19Just like that, my girl.
46:20Just like that.
46:21Aim and shoot.
46:22Do not hesitate for a second.
46:27To you,
46:29happy birthday.
46:31To you,
46:32thank you.
46:33I've had such a wonderful day today.
46:37The atmosphere here
46:39reminds me of the little pub
46:40where I first met you.
46:44Don't remind me.
46:45If I hadn't met you,
46:46I would have been in a terrible state.
46:48Thinking back now,
46:49I have to thank those two thugs.
46:52Are you drunk after just one sip?
46:54If it weren't for them,
46:56how would I have had the chance
46:56to play the hero
46:57and save the beauty?
46:59Seb, you got to know
47:00my birthday wish today.
47:02What about yours?
47:03Is there any wish
47:03you want to come true?
47:07When I was a boy,
47:08my wish was to have a father.
47:10Later,
47:11my mother,
47:12she gave me quite a few fathers.
47:14When I grew up a bit
47:15and joined the military,
47:16my wish was to distinguish myself.
47:18And then,
47:19the war broke out.
47:21Since then,
47:21I never dared to make
47:22any more birthday wishes.
47:24Until I met you.
47:26I began to wish
47:27that my own birthday
47:28would arrive a little sooner.
47:36What is it?
47:38It's nothing.
47:39Let's go.
47:48Seb.
47:52Don't you want to kiss me?
47:54You know I want to kiss you
47:55every single second.
47:56Then kiss me.
47:58I know what your wish is
47:59and it is my wish today too.
48:01Is this truly what you wish?
48:03Of course.
48:05Of course.
48:06Of course.
48:08Of course.
48:22I love you, Evelyn,
48:23no matter what.

52:30to
52:30rely on she came to england through her own hard work to become a maid wanting nothing more than to
52:34live an ordinary life however the defendant sebastian hastings used his status and power to commit
52:38an atrocious assault against this helpless woman on the night of the incident miss evelyn had just
52:43celebrated her birthday she regarded the defendant as a friend perhaps even more and the defendant
52:48exploited that trust the trust of a friend what did you see near the crime scene that night
52:53i i came out of the pub and heard someone calling for help then i saw a young woman that
52:59lady over
52:59there running toward me barefoot trembling all over crying so hard she couldn't speak when you saw her
53:03what did she say she she pointed at a car parked on the roadside saying the man inside raped her
53:08and
53:09did you see the defendant at that time yes i did he was sitting inside that luxury car what was
53:13he
53:13doing at the time uh he was smoking he looked quite relaxed didn't offer any explanation no he just sat
53:18there smoking mr hastings do you have anything to say no speak up tell them you didn't
53:32defendant this court will give you one more chance if you remain silent this court will rule that you
53:38have pleated guilty by default your honor i may i may i say something if it has nothing to do
53:47with this
53:48case then please don't it it is about the defendant please speak master hastings
53:57that is the defendant he he would never commit rape never master hastings is a decent gentleman
54:06he he never even let us maids enter his bedroom he also saved me he saved me and evelyn
54:18your honor i also have something to say about the defendant and the victim what testimony do you
54:26have to offer just like that young lady i absolutely do not believe the defendant would commit rape
54:32do you have any evidence it goes like this last year around october this miss evelyn came to my pub
54:39to
54:39seek shelter from the rain at the time there were two notorious scroundrels in my pub seeing how beautiful
54:44this lady was they secretly drugged her drink uh just as the scoundrels were about to take her away
54:49mr hastings scared them off with a gun i asked him afterwards aren't you afraid of going to prison
54:52for hurting someone i remember him saying uh he said ruining a rapist is worth going to prison for look
54:57at me seb if you just look at me now i will give up all my revenge look at me
55:01and there is one more
55:03thing later he helped the young lady out of the pub go on sir when i went out to throw
55:09away the trash
55:10uh i saw the lady i saw the lady throwing herself at him uh but he pushed her away right
55:16then
55:17your honor my son is innocent it's all that woman's fault she framed my son you should arrest her
55:24send her to prison order your honor i plead guilty no no defendant what did you say i plead guilty
55:35i raped evelyn it is absolutely true
55:47since the defendant has voluntarily pleaded guilty this court will recess immediately for final
55:52deliberations why why on earth did you plead guilty a son pays his mother's debts you you know
56:00everything from now on you don't have a son upon 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 you can take your time to consider
56:30i have no son anymore what's the use of a son useless

57:15Yes, many wounded soldiers have been sent from the front line.
57:23Miss Evelyn.
57:26Jack, what are you doing here?
57:28I came to visit some old comrades. I heard they were sent here.
57:30Oh, by the way, Captain Sebastian went to the front line this time too.
57:33Do you have any news of him?
57:34You haven't heard? I thought you two were quite close.
57:37Has he gone to war? Is he doing okay?
57:41Don't worry. Captain Sebastian fights very bravely. He'll definitely return in triumph.
57:46Fights bravely? You really didn't have to comfort me.
57:51Excuse me, is this Lord Hastings?
57:53Speaking. May I ask who is calling?
57:56Good afternoon, Lord Hastings. It's Evelyn.
57:58Good afternoon. To what do I owe the pleasure of your call, miss?
58:02Do you know how Seb is doing lately?
58:05Oh, you want to know how Sebastian is doing?
58:08His sentence was cut short, and he has been recalled to the front line.
58:17If you would like to pray, you are welcome to join us inside.
58:21I've never believed in God. Can I still pray?
58:24Anyone can pray to God.
58:30I would trade all the remaining wishes of my life just for his safe return.
58:40God bless you.
58:49Better work.
58:51Better work.
