00:00On the West Coast, people say the Mafia King rewrote justice with bloody hands.
00:17Please, I have a family.
00:19You pull that on my ground, you got a death wish, friend.
00:27Tell her drop that your family is here to pick you up.
00:36I'm the eldest daughter of the Drump family.
00:39Three years ago, my stepsister set me up for theft, and my father sent me to the reform school with
00:45his own hands.
00:46I heard your father struck it rich overnight selling Gold Rush equipment.
00:50So you're a little princess after all.
00:53No, please don't! Help! Somebody help!
01:01Three years of torment, from a ballerina to a cripple, dragging a wooden leg, and my father never once showed
01:09his face.
01:16Father is here. Has he finally realized that I was wronged?
01:22What's she doing here?
01:26My dear sister, we've come to bring you home.
01:29Why the long face?
01:30As for the stealing, consider yourself forgiven, graciously.
01:37Forgiven? You know damn well it was you who...
01:39Here's some good news.
01:40Your stepmother and I have arranged for you to marry Tommaso Morati in Clara's stand.
01:46That's right.
01:47Word on the street is he's got nothing going on upstairs, or anywhere else.
01:50And they say he likes to make women suffer just for the fun of it.
01:53The lies we planted about me, they're out there?
01:56Yes, Don. But Drup won't back down.
01:59He's pushing for the contracts bad enough that he's offering up another daughter instead.
02:03The girl I asked you to find.
02:05Any word?
02:06I know she stays on your mind, Don.
02:08But she vanished three years back.
02:10Gone like smoke.
02:16Ella, be reasonable.
02:17If he is lost to his senses, he will not trouble you.
02:20If he lacks certain manly faculties, he will never wander.
02:24This is a stroke of fortune for you.
02:27Exactly.
02:27And the moment you walk down that aisle, Mr. Morati hands us a billion-dollar contract.
02:33A billion, Ella.
02:35Then why don't you marry him yourself?
02:37Why am I always the one who gets thrown to the wolves?
02:40Ella Drumpa!
02:42You are a member of this family, are you not?
02:45Sending her to a madman would be a death sentence.
02:48How can you be so selfish?
02:50And must I sacrifice my entire future for the sake of a madman?
02:54Am I not your daughter as well?
02:57Lest you forget, the debt of your stepmother's stolen necklace remains unsettled.
03:02This marriage is your only chance to clear your ledger with this family.
03:06One daughter traded for a fortune.
03:08The love I was counting on from my own father, it was never real.
03:13I won't do it!
03:18Looks like they didn't knock enough sense into you in there.
03:22Walk yourself home.
03:28If they're going to force me into a marriage, I'll find one myself first.
03:33Don, you've got rumors going around that you're crazy and no good in bed and now you're out here playing
03:37beggar.
03:38What exactly are we doing?
03:39I won't take a wife who's after my money.
03:42Doesn't matter which trumpet daughter they throw at me.
03:44Spare me the reminder, I am well aware my father's illegitimate sons are plotting my downfall.
03:49They know his feistal testament has a cruel price.
03:51The trust remains sealed until the day I take a wife.
03:55Even so, I'm not going through with any alliance.
03:57I'll find a woman and make a deal.
03:59A marriage on paper.
04:01Wife?
04:02Boss, no girl's going to say yes to a man who looks like he sleeps in the gutter.
04:08You looking for a wife?
04:13What'd I do?
04:15What do you say we get married?
04:17What do you say we get married?
04:26God.
04:27Sorry, forget what I said.
04:39The one I've been looking for all these years.
04:41The girl who stole my breath the moment I laid eyes on her.
04:46Could it be her?
04:47You said you wanted to get married.
04:49Then I'm in.
04:58Since you've agreed to this, there are things you need to know about me first.
05:02My leg.
05:03It's not right.
05:04And I just got out of the reform school.
05:09Trust set up by my father for me.
05:11Free from arranged marriage for you.
05:13You never look down on my rags.
05:15Why would I mind your broken leg?
05:17All right.
05:18We've got a deal then.
05:20Once we've both got what we need, we part ways clean.
05:24Ella Drump to Mazo Moretti.
05:35He's got the same name as that Moretti.
05:37What are the odds?
05:41I need to stop by my home first.
05:43There's something I have to settle face to face.
05:46Go ahead.
05:52Send word to the Drumps.
05:54The marriage alliance is off.
05:56And get a wedding gift ready for Ella Drump and her family.
06:00My wife deserves the best.
06:02Deliver it to her door yourself.
06:04Understood, Don.
06:10Mother, what if Ella doesn't show up?
06:14Would they drag me to marry that lunaturk?
06:16Where has that little wretch of your first wife gotten to?
06:20Do something!
06:21Jesus!
06:30What's going on?
06:32Why are they leaving without Ella?
06:34It's because Ella stayed out till all hours.
06:38The Moretti outfit must think she's damaged goods and they're backing out.
06:43This is a disaster!
06:45There's a billion dollar deal on the line!
06:47Where the hell has that girl gone?
06:53You've got nerves showing up here.
06:55The Morettis found out you weren't home and they pulled out of the whole deal!
07:00You will go over to Mr. Moretti right now and beg his forgiveness!
07:04Me?
07:05On what grounds?
07:07I was never the one who was supposed to marry him.
07:10I'm not going anywhere to beg for anything.
07:12And I'm not throwing away my happiness so Clara can have hers.
07:15I'm here for my things and nothing else.
07:20Your happiness?
07:22You think you are still some promising little dancer with a future?
07:26You're a thief who did time in the reform school.
07:29No decent man is going to touch you.
07:33Take a good look.
07:35I'm already married.
07:38That's impossible!
07:40You just walked out of that place!
07:42You married some nobody off the street!
07:45If the Moretti find out that billion dollar deal is dead and buried!
07:50You're going to divorce him.
07:52Today.
07:55Is this the Drump residence?
07:57We're looking for Miss Ella Drump.
07:58We have come to present wedding gifts for Miss Ella Drumpy and her family.
08:06Thomas.
08:08How on earth could he afford any of this?
08:11Could it be Ella actually married a man with money?
08:15Wake up!
08:16These are fakes.
08:17Look at those men.
08:18Do they look like they work for anyone who can afford real jewels?
08:21You've got a point.
08:23I don't care who you've tied yourself to.
08:26You're going to undo it and marry into the Moretti family like I said.
08:30I won't.
08:32Not ever.
08:35Touch her again.
08:36I dare you.
08:37Thomas.
08:39Who the hell are you?
08:41I'm Ella's husband.
08:43Tommaso Moretti.
08:47I thought you'd done something clever.
08:49Turns out you dragged home a man from the gutter.
08:52Degrade yourself all you like, but keep his filth away from me.
08:57He is my husband.
08:59Show some respect.
09:01You dare hit Clara!
09:03She had it coming.
09:04Three years ago she set me up, and you both sent me into the reform school to rot.
09:08That's enough of that noise.
09:10Clara's future and this family's business ride on this deal.
09:13You are going to marry Moretti.
09:15You don't own her.
09:16Nobody asked you, you filthy beggar!
09:19You forced me into a corner, talked down to me, and insulted my husband.
09:22I am done holding my tongue.
09:24I want what my mother left me.
09:26And after today, I'm finished with every last one of you.
09:30You walk out that door.
09:31Don't bother coming back.
09:32So she was framed with family like this.
09:35No wonder she'd marry a stranger off the street just to get out.
09:38You're not going anywhere!
09:40You are not walking out of here and taking our deal with you!
09:42The deal?
09:44Gold Rush money.
09:45Built from the ground up.
09:47I'll give you one chance.
09:49Let her walk.
09:50Or I'll see to it you never set foot at another trade fair in this city again.
09:53You?
09:54You'll do that?
09:55Get to the telegraph office.
09:57Send word that...
10:00Listen to him.
10:01A beggar from the street thinks he can shut down the biggest trade fair in San Francisco.
10:06Who do you think you are?
10:08The Mafia King?
10:10That's rich!
10:11Mr. Drumpet!
10:12Your exhibition credentials have been revoked!
10:14What the?
10:15I paid $100,000 for that spot.
10:17How is this possible?
10:18It can't be!
10:19How could you have...
10:22Unless you're actually the Mafia?
10:28What do we do?
10:29We've offended the Mafia!
10:31Dad, it must be a coincidence.
10:33Mr. Moeretti's unhappy about Ella rejecting the engagement.
10:37So he cancelled our exhibition spot.
10:39That's right!
10:40He's just a filthy tramp.
10:42There's no way he's connected to the Mafia.
10:45He must have been eavesdropping at the door and trying to scare us.
10:48You make a good point.
10:49Wait.
10:51Just now Ella said she suffered in that reformatory.
10:54What was that about?
10:56Clara, didn't you say you spent plenty to make sure she wouldn't be bullied in there?
11:00And Ella's leg...
11:01Dad, you know Ella's a born liar.
11:04How could I possibly let my own sister suffer in the reformatory?
11:08None of that matters.
11:09What matters is we find a way to get Ella divorced from that trape.
11:14Father, I have an idea.
11:19Sorry.
11:20Until I get my trust fund, this is the best I could afford.
11:24The beginning is always the hardest.
11:27She's a truly pure soul.
11:29I'm sorry I can't reveal everything just yet.
11:31I know this is just a marriage of convenience.
11:34But you can still make demands of me.
11:37A steady life.
11:38An honest husband.
11:39That's all I want.
11:40I promise you.
11:51He has a concierge.
11:56Thomas, there's a letter for you.
11:59You are?
12:01Your flash husband.
12:04Ah!
12:07Ah!
12:14Why does touching her always feel this way?
12:22No, no, no.
12:23I'm sorry.
12:23I'm sorry.
12:23I'm sorry.
12:24Lord Almighty, I just saw a man...
12:28Why does my heart pound so fast?
12:31I've never felt this way.
12:32Ah!
12:35I almost kissed her, but I shouldn't.
12:38It's just a deal.
12:39Nothing more.
12:41It's just a marriage of convenience, Ella.
12:43Stop those crazy thoughts.
12:50Don, Drump still has not dropped the matter of the Alliance.
12:54What is he planning?
12:56He swears his daughter will be in your hands by Thursday, come hell or high water.
13:00He's already named the spot.
13:01Fine.
13:02I'll call it off, right in front of his face.
13:07Mother, I miss you so much.
13:09This necklace was the dearest thing you had.
13:11I'm glad I kept it safe.
13:13What?
13:15They switched it.
13:16They tricked me.
13:19If you wish to reclaim that wretched ball of your mother's,
13:22present yourself at the church on the outskirts at ten o'clock sharp.
13:26Fail us, and I shall take great pleasure in reducing it to ash.
13:36I held up my end.
13:37Now give me the necklace.
13:38What's the rush?
13:40Once you're married to that madman and the contracts are signed,
13:44you'll have your precious necklace back.
13:46You don't deserve that!
13:48Give it back!
13:49What use is the pulpy balsal of a dead woman?
13:52Put on that dress!
13:53If you prove yourself an obedient creature,
13:56perhaps my daughter will generously return it to you.
13:59You're walking down that aisle today,
14:01whether you're breathing or not.
14:05Get your hands off me!
14:08Ella, I made breakfast.
14:09Come and eat.
14:15Where'd she go?
14:19On half an hour out,
14:21the Drump family is at the church waiting for you.
14:24Got it.
14:25One more thing.
14:25Your wife was also called out there by her family this morning.
14:30How could it be?
14:33I don't know what they're pulling,
14:35but whatever it is,
14:36it won't be good for Ella.
14:40The church.
14:41Full speed.
14:45Isn't this supposed to be the eldest Drump of Girls' engagement?
14:47Where's the bride?
14:48Where's the groom?
14:49I must ask for your forbance, ladies and gentlemen.
14:52Pray.
14:53Compose yourselves and maintain the proper decorum.
14:59Let go of me!
15:02Hold your tongue and find your dignity, Ella.
15:05Mr. Marotti will be here presently,
15:06and I will not have the name of Drump bleep
15:08besmirched by your insult.
15:09You lied to me!
15:10I came here for my mother's necklace and nothing else!
15:12Cast not your transgressions from your mind.
15:15Marrying Mr. Marotti in your sister's state
15:17is the most merciful of penancies I could grant you!
15:20Penancies?
15:21Father, what do I have to do for you to believe me?
15:24I was set up!
15:26I never stole a single thing from that woman!
15:28It was her!
15:30She was jealous of me!
15:31She wanted me gone, and she ruined my career!
15:34Ella, stop talking nonsense.
15:37Mother and father caught you stealing on sight, don't you remember?
15:39She's truly ungrateful.
15:41Sending her to the reform school
15:43was quite clearly a necessary measure for her own salvation.
15:46For my own good?
15:48Do you have any idea what those years were like?
15:50They beat me!
15:51They humiliated me!
15:53And my leg!
15:54What they did to my leg!
15:55Silence, Ella!
15:56You have ever been a weaver of fables?
15:58Such wretched tales are utterly beyond the realm of belief!
16:01Clara's gold is the only reason
16:02you aren't rotting in a pauper's grave,
16:04and you dare spit on her mercy,
16:07you heartless serpent!
16:09Mark my words.
16:10This is the final measure of my grace.
16:12Obey me now,
16:13or I shall cast you out as a stranger to my blood!
16:15Never!
16:16Norman Trumpet,
16:17you are a bastard trampling on your wife's ghost.
16:18You are no father to me!
16:20How dare you address me with such insolent tongue,
16:22you ungrateful wretch!
16:24Leave that garbage right now!
16:26I won't!
16:27Ella!
16:31Ella!
16:35Ella!
16:37Appad your signature to this instrument of dissolution this instant!
16:41Rid yourself of that vagrant once and for all!
16:43Why cling to a gutter rat, Ella?
16:45Rest assured,
16:46the Moretti madman shall find his own ways to
16:48entertain you this night.
16:49I will not!
16:50I shall never grant you this!
16:52This is the penance you owe my daughter,
16:54you wretched creature!
16:55Never!
16:56I shall not divorce Tommaso!
17:01Insolent girl,
17:03you have dragged the house of Drumpath through the mire!
17:06You shall wed the mafia!
17:08If only to wash the stain of that beggar from our name!
17:18How do you account for this?
17:20You swore to me she was well-tended within those walls!
17:22Why is she maimed?
17:28Mr. Moretti,
17:29can it truly be you?
17:31Ella!
17:35We have been awaiting your arrival with bated breath,
17:37Don Moretti.
17:38The wretch is yours to command.
17:40You may do with her as you please,
17:41for all we care.
17:45How dare you lay your hands on my wife!
17:51You are but a common vagabond!
17:53It is impossible!
17:54How could a beggar be the butcher of San Francisco?
18:01I am taking you to the care of the finest surgeons immediately.
18:04Everyone in this room shall find the cost of disgrating my wife to be unbearable.
18:09You shall pay for every tear she shed.
18:12Don Moretti,
18:13I implore you,
18:14we meant no harm to the girl!
18:15Indeed!
18:16She was merely wayward regarding the Alliance.
18:18Had we known she was married to you,
18:19we would never have forced a divorce.
18:21Hold!
18:22Though we deal with the mafia,
18:23none here have looked upon the Don's true face.
18:25How can you prove you are the Don?
18:27Precisely.
18:28Without proof,
18:28your claims are nothing but air.
18:30Ha!
18:30A mere pretender,
18:31after all.
18:32I knew it!
18:33A beggar does not become a king in a single night.
18:37You are nothing but a common fraud!
18:40It seems you shall not grasp the truth until you are staring into your own graves.
18:49To command such a force with a mere snap of the fingers.
18:54You truly are the mafia king.
18:58You...
18:59You are indeed.
19:07From this day on,
19:09in San Francisco,
19:11anyone who does business with the Drumpa family
19:14declares war on the mafia.
19:17You are my enemy!
19:19Mercy!
19:20Mercy!
19:20We beg your forgiveness!
19:21We were blinded by deceptions!
19:24The hour of mercy has passed.
19:35You are awake.
19:37Do you feel better, Ella?
19:39What transpired?
19:40I felt as though the world had gone dark.
19:41Only a bad dream, Ella.
19:43You were overwhelmed.
19:43We are going home, and a physician shall attend to you.
19:46I thought I heard them calling you the mafia king.
19:49You are indeed.
19:52No, I merely wish to cow them into silence.
19:55But those men...
19:56All friends in costume playing their parts for a bit of sport.
19:59I see.
20:00I am glad.
20:01I have no wish to be a pawn in some grand house ruled by the whims of powerful men.
20:11Friends in costume?
20:12A ruse, as I thought.
20:14You'll not get the better of us again, you filthy beggar.
20:19Pardon me, sir.
20:20Are you seeking any additional hands?
20:22We have openings, yes.
20:23But none for a cripple.
20:29I can do any manner of toil.
20:31Scrubbing floors.
20:32Hauling crates, please!
20:38Once, I was the darling of this city's stage.
20:41Now, I am less than the dust upon its floorboards denied even the right to sweep them.
20:47You have been returning quite late.
20:50What is it that weighs upon you?
20:52It is nothing.
20:53You must be famished.
20:54I shall prepare our supper.
20:59So, she has been seeking labor in the theaters, alone.
21:03To think I could give her the world with a snap of my fingers, yet she struggles in the shadows
21:06because I hide my face.
21:15Inform every troop in the city if they dare deny my wife a place.
21:18They shall not see tomorrow's sunrise.
21:20It shall be done.
21:28Useless.
21:29Even my own limbs betray me.
21:31I only wish you would find some small excuse to lean upon me more.
21:35Perhaps a small favor might bridge distance between us.
21:38How goes the struggle, my lady?
21:40I find myself in need of a favor, and only you will do.
21:44I am entirely at your service.
21:46That one, right at the top.
21:51How's the view from the heights, my lady?
21:55Hardly the assistance I envisioned, but effective nonetheless.
21:59I have it!
22:02Why is his skin like fire?
22:04Strange.
22:05That familiar hunger stirs within me once more.
22:10The pot!
22:11It boils over!
22:11I'll fetch a cloth.
22:24Is this... is this me?
22:34Are you certain... do you know the girl in the box?
22:37I... that is...
22:41Then tell me where she is.
22:42She is the one I have spent years searching for.
22:45The girl he has been seeking.
22:46But we were strangers until now.
22:48It cannot be me.
22:49I was mistaken.
22:51I do not know her after all.
22:59Why does the thought of his longing for another woman sting so deeply?
23:02It was a matter of convenience.
23:04Or has my heart begun to wander?
23:06If coincidences mount like this, then it is no longer mere chance.
23:12Ella Drumpert.
23:13Scrutinize every facet of this girl's history.
23:16Her three years within the House of Correction.
23:18And all that transpired before.
23:24Command every shadow in this city.
23:26I want the truth of Ella Drumpur's past within three days.
23:30I can wait no longer to know if she is indeed the girl I have sought.
23:37Morning.
23:38What made your day?
23:39The Chandler Theater.
23:40They have agreed to take me on as a wardrobe assistant.
23:43Splendid.
23:43I never doubted your merit for a moment.
23:46I must make haste or I shall be late.
23:48Wait.
23:49Behold.
23:50The flying machine.
23:52I'm off.
23:55I could have been up there.
23:57That stage.
23:59Those lights.
24:01Once that stage was my world.
24:06And now I scrub it with a rag.
24:08You there!
24:11Why do you stand like a statue?
24:12You're obstructing the path.
24:13Forgive me.
24:14I am new to the theater service.
24:16New?
24:16And tell me, does a creature like you even know how to move to a melody?
24:20I am but a new charwoman.
24:21I thought as much.
24:22A half-starved thing with the common face of a scullery maid.
24:25To your toil, little mouse.
24:26Your only duty is to embrace the stench of our labor.
24:32I am not your floor rag.
24:39Why do you shrink?
24:40You reek of the gutter.
24:42Those rags you wear aren't worth the thread in our soiled stockings.
24:45Indeed.
24:45What is a bruised nose to a life as cheap as yours?
24:47No one cares for a stray, so learn to endure it.
24:50If you mar a single silk, I shall stuff these very rags down your insolent throat.
24:59Enough!
25:05Even the lowest position commands a measure of respect.
25:08I was once a dancer myself.
25:10I know the dignity of this floor.
25:13The fall has at her brain.
25:14The charwoman fancies herself a prima donna.
25:17Very well then, princess.
25:18By what noble name shall we call you?
25:21Ella?
25:26Ella Drump.
25:26Ella Drump?
25:27The prodigy of San Francisco?
25:29The one they once called the ballet princess?
25:31Ma'am, surely you don't mean...
25:33She is not mistaken.
25:35I am Ella Drump.
25:38I am Ella Drump.
25:40The candidate for the lead?
25:42It cannot be!
25:45Indeed, this wretched thing is a world away from that golden girl.
25:49Enough.
25:50Even if you were once a rising star, you lack the courage to even show your face at the trials
25:55three years ago.
25:55You are nothing but a bluffed.
25:57I met with an unfortunate accident that year.
26:00That is why I could not attend.
26:01Don't tell me a creature who cannot even keep her feet dreams of being a lead.
26:06Gravity won that round.
26:10Ella Drump, it seems you have forgotten my face.
26:12Let me remind you, it was you who was served my place at the graduation gala.
26:15It was you.
26:16We were peers once, yet you were the only one crowned with glory.
26:19I have waited years to see you drown in the mire where you belong.
26:23Cease this infimacy at once!
26:36What manner of cruelty is this?
26:39What have you done to her?
26:41Merely instructing the girl in her duties.
26:43A shereman who cannot even scrub a garment is of no use to us.
26:47Exactly.
26:48A useless wretch like her should be cast out into the street.
26:52I would dismiss every one of you harlots before I let a hair on Ella's head be harmed.
26:58Hear me well.
27:00Anyone who dares lay a hand on Ella from this day forth answers to me.
27:05I shall show no mercy.
27:07Go to work.
27:12These vixes nearly signed my death warrant.
27:15If the Don finds out they touched her, Lord preserve me.
27:19That bitch!
27:21She has usurped my authority once again!
27:25Mark my words.
27:27She shall not find peace within these walls.
27:33Thomas!
27:36To have a sanctuary in his arms.
27:39It is a grace I never thought to find again.
27:42What has befalled you?
27:43Where is a mark upon your cheek?
27:46Tell me.
27:48Did someone dare to strike you?
27:53Oh, it was just a scratch.
27:56Tomazuo often defends me in small ways.
27:58If he knew the truth, he would make me quit.
28:00But I cannot lose this position.
28:09You know you can lean on me in times of trouble, right?
28:12He has no idea what such simple words to mean to me.
28:25I-I-I-I shall clean this up.
28:28Do not dream.
28:29He is but your husband on paper.
28:31Besides, his heart belongs to another.
28:35Everyone, I must depart.
28:37The grand performance is near.
28:39We must prepare.
28:40Ella, the new lead arrives soon.
28:42This is her gown.
28:43Do not fail me.
28:45Yes, ma'am.
28:47How exquisite.
28:48I once dreamed of such a gown.
28:51But Clara's lies took it all away.
28:54Look at her daydreaming with that dress.
28:55You, Charwomen, hold it steady.
28:56That belongs to Long's the lead.
28:58Prodigy?
28:59But I was the champion last year.
29:01Could it be?
29:01You are frightened now, are you not?
29:03A wretch like you is not fit to touch her feet.
29:07Dama is here!
29:10Clara?
29:15Dear sister, we meet once more.
29:17You are the lead?
29:19You could hardly stand during practice.
29:21How is this possible?
29:22Times change.
29:23I am now the guest lead for the grand performance.
29:26And you?
29:27You are nothing but a cripple.
29:32This is impossible!
29:33Miss Clara is a champion.
29:34You have no right to doubt her.
29:35I am the true champion!
29:37She stole my glory with my name!
29:38So you framed me?
29:40Destroying my dance career and taking my leg just for this?
29:44You monster!
29:45You ruined my entire life!
29:47You are delusional!
29:48Your failure is your own fault!
29:50This madwoman belongs in the cellar with the trash.
29:53Yes, your tragedy was my chance.
29:56It was simply your bad luck.
29:59To be a prima dollar in this troop was never written in your destiny.
30:03You cursed Jinx who killed her own mother.
30:06You deserve this.
30:10Let me down!
30:11I fear heights, Clara!
30:11I beg you!
30:12Of course I know, you poor thing.
30:13But you will watch my glory from up there.
30:15Watch me destroy you and take your place.
30:25All of that should have been mine.
30:29Good heavens!
30:30Do something!
30:32What were you thinking?
30:33You are the lead!
30:35The mat was crooked!
30:36Your spin was sloppy and your leg was weak!
30:38Those are the basics!
30:40Is she not the champion?
30:42Why is her technique so poor?
30:43Could she be a fraud?
30:47What is to be done?
30:49If today's disaster cannot be remedied, the papers will vilify us until our theater is shuttered
30:54for good!
30:56Let me down!
30:58I can fix this.
31:01A charwoman on stage?
31:03What a joke!
31:05She only wants to cause trouble!
31:12Should you ruin the performance, you shall be dismissed at once and held liable for the
31:16theater's immense losses.
31:18Done.
31:26Prepare to be shamed, wretch.
31:46That is it.
31:47Exactly.
32:02How can she do this?
32:05That performance felt like a dream.
32:24Good lord, her foot!
32:26She has but one foot!
32:28She was a dancer.
32:29How did this happen?
32:31You're a little princess after all.
32:33No, please don't!
32:35Help!
32:37She lost her foot because she was a rebel in the workhouse!
32:42Why was she sent to such a place?
32:44She stole my mother's necklace three years ago.
32:48A common thief in the house.
32:49She got exactly what she deserved.
32:51No.
32:52No.
32:53Do you hear?
32:54You are nothing but a failed criminal!
32:57You were the one who framed me!
33:01Enough!
33:02And pay for my loss.
33:03I told you.
33:04Failure means you leave.
33:06I have no coins.
33:09Sell her to a brothel.
33:10She is young and you've got a good price.
33:13Clara, you have gone too far!
33:21Boss, I have verified with Miss Ella's alma mater.
33:24She was San Francisco's most anticipated prodigy.
33:26The champion of the youth dance competition.
33:28She was sent to the house of correction for theft by her family three years ago.
33:32But the evidence suggests she was likely framed.
33:35So, Ella is indeed the girl I have been searching for.
33:37We've got a deal then.
33:39Once we've both got what we need,
33:41we part ways clean.
33:43No, we shall not divorce.
33:45Wait for me, Ella.
33:46I cannot wait a moment longer to see you.
33:48If you wish to avoid the brothel,
33:51go at once and plead for mercy from the true Don, Mr. Tommaso.
33:55Tell him you are willing to wed him.
33:57I never will!
33:59Great news!
34:00The true owner of this theater, Don Tommaso, is coming for an inspection!
34:05Does this theater belong to the Mafia as well?
34:07What did you expect?
34:08Now you have not only refused the Don,
34:11but you have ruined today's performance
34:13and caused a scene in his theater!
34:16He will never let you go once he arrives!
34:20Pinning her down like this until the Don arrives is hardly a solution.
34:24I recall an iron cage in the prop room.
34:31Let me out!
34:37Faster!
34:38Faster!
34:40Let me out!
34:41I beg you, Clara!
34:43I dare not.
34:43If you escape, how should we answer to the Mafia?
34:47You will regret this!
34:50Regret?
34:51I hear Don Tommaso loves to torment at women.
34:54Perhaps he will reward us!
34:57Could she break the bars of the cage?
34:59Do not worry.
35:03Look!
35:09The crippled wooden leg is on fire!
35:11Stop struggling!
35:13No one is coming to save you!
35:15Your Vagalon husband is far too busy pleading for scraps!
35:19What are you doing?
35:24We are punishing the Charwoman, Ella.
35:28Do you know who she is?
35:30You are seeking your own deaths!
35:34I know exactly who she is.
35:36She is a beggar's wife, lower than dirt.
35:40Stay out of this!
35:41Don Tommaso will surely praise us when he arrives!
36:01You have such audacity to treat my wife this way.
36:05It seems you no longer wish to live.
36:07It is Tommaso Moretti, the true Mafia King!
36:12How can this be?
36:14That beggar is truly the Mafia King!
36:18He truly is the Don.
36:20We are finished.
36:22I failed to protect Miss Ella.
36:24I beg you to spare their lives!
36:26Mercy, Don Moretti!
36:28Forgive our wretched folly!
36:29We beg for your pardon!
36:34Lock them within.
36:35Let them remain until the fire has spent its fury.
36:49I heard them call you the Mafia King.
36:51Is it true?
36:56Yes.
36:58I was just about to tell you the truth.
37:00This entire city belongs to me.
37:01I will protect you from this day forth.
37:04No one shall ever dare to bully you again.
37:06I swear it.
37:08Also, I wanted to tell you...
37:10You are actually my...
37:12Tommaso, I want a divorce.
37:20I want a divorce.
37:25No, Ella.
37:26Listen to me.
37:27I love...
37:28Ella?
37:29Ella!
37:37I want a divorce.
37:39I cannot lose you again.
37:43How do you feel?
37:51Tommaso, Moretti.
37:53You promised me you would never lie.
37:57I had my reasons.
37:59You know I have been searching for a girl I loved.
38:01I hid my identity because I wished to avoid marriage.
38:03But I have only just learned...
38:05That girl was you.
38:14Don, Mr. Druppet requests an audience.
38:17He claims to be concerned for his daughter's well-being.
38:20And which daughter might he be fredding, Alva?
38:22Show him in.
38:25Mr. Moretti, I have come only to visit my daughter.
38:28I heard of her injury and could not remain at ease.
38:30Your precious stepdaughter played no small part in Ella's suffering.
38:35Tell me, has she learned to walk through blood yet?
38:40Mr. Moretti, Clara is repentant.
38:42I have already seen to her punishment.
38:44Oh, I have also brought this.
38:47A relic of Ella's mother.
38:48I hope to place it in her hands myself.
38:51What brings you here?
38:53My sweetie, I have brought your mother's gemstone necklace for you.
39:03Seeing you wear it brings back memories of your mother.
39:07Of the days when we were a family of three.
39:10Stop pretending you still care.
39:14Ever since those two women entered our home, you erased every trace of my mother and grew to loathe me.
39:19How could I loathe you?
39:21You are my own flesh and blood.
39:22It is all Clara's fault.
39:23She blinded me and turned father against daughter.
39:26I thought his devotion to those women was genuine.
39:28The old lizard is truly a master at shedding his tail to survive.
39:32But we are father and daughter after all, are we not?
39:35You surely wouldn't watch your father lose everything at his age?
39:39I cease to recognize you as my father long ago.
39:42Begone.
39:43Ungrateful wretch.
39:45How dare you think you can live a life of luxury while I suffer?
39:53Ungrateful wretch.
40:06Show our guest out.
40:09Ungrateful wretch.
40:12Had I not seen it with my own eyes, I might never have believed that the warm gentleman is...
40:18In truth, the ruthless Mafia King.
40:21I know he does all this for my sake, and such are the laws of his world, but I believe
40:26I must still leave him.
40:29You had something to say to me, didn't you?
40:32I...
40:34It can wait.
40:36Go and attend to your business.
40:45Don, we've uncovered a plot.
40:46Your father's base-born sons, Massiamo and Luke, are smuggling rare ores to the Vulcans in the outer space.
40:51They seek to usurp you in one stroke.
40:54As if they could.
40:58Where are they located?
40:59The West Pier.
41:01They are doomed.
41:10Don't worry. I'll be right back.
41:19I shouldn't care, but a voice within me cries out, I want him safe.
41:33They are here.
41:49My heart won't stop racing.
41:51I feel as though something is terribly wrong.
42:03No, Tommaso.
42:05I must find him!
42:10Where's the other bastard hiding?
42:14Why don't you guess?
42:16Do not test my patience.
42:19Tell me, Tommaso, did I ever warn you to watch your back?
42:32Well played, brother!
42:34Well played, brother!
42:35Do not be real reckless, Tommaso.
42:39I presume you would prefer to see her stay alive.
42:43No, no, no, no!
42:46Enough!
42:48Excellent. Now the time for the exchange has come.
43:11No! Tomasso!
43:20I can't. Please don't leave me.
43:26I thought you were gonna leave me anyway.
43:30No, I shall never leave you.
43:33Tomasso, I love you.
43:45Thank God you are safe.
43:50I do not know how I could ever repay you for saving my life.
43:56That is simple enough. Will you consent to be my wife once more?
44:01I do.
44:12All in the air! A mysterious airship puzzles the people of San Francisco!
44:18Thank you, sir!
44:22The Vulcan, being similar to mankind, possessed the power to concentrate their vital energy and antibodies upon injured organs, accelerating
44:30the healing process.
44:31If only they could heal Ella's leg.
44:34To the Department of War.
44:43Mr. Moretti, where is it?
44:48They are highly intelligent, gaining information and consciousness through touch. We have persuaded it to cooperate with our experiments.
44:55The Vulcan serum directs the body's antibodies to concentrate on the injured organ to complete the repair.
45:01They weren't exaggerating.
45:04How certain are you of applying this tissue regeneration to a human subject?
45:08We lack absolute certainty, but it is well worth the attempt.
45:13Test it on me.
45:20Ella, it is highly possible that you may walk upon your own feet once more.
45:25How is that possible?
45:32Tommaso, are you certain this is wise?
45:35Do you remember the scar upon my back?
45:37After the Vulcan serum was administered, it vanished within half a day.
45:48Have no fear.
45:50I shall be right by your side.
45:54The Vulcan must touch your cheek to gather information.
45:57Then it will produce the regenerative serum Sametsive with its own body.
46:01It is quite approachable.
46:03Do not be alarmed.
46:04This is beyond wonder.
46:07I believe we are prepared.
46:10Mrs. Moretti, it is time for the miracle to unfold.
46:18Please make it happen.
46:21Oh!
46:39It felt like a dream.
46:46Do you see it!
46:48I can feel it!
46:49But... Tommaso...
46:51It has finally...
46:53Thank God it worked.
46:55It worked.
47:00Now you may realize your dreams once more.
47:04The San Francisco Opera House reopens after the Great Fire!
47:08The vanished ballet princess rumored to return to the stage!
47:16I can hardly believe I am wearing the prima dama's gown once again.
47:24Seeing you in this gown once more drives me to distraction.
47:27Then you'd better hold it back.
47:29Not after tonight, Mrs. Morelli.
47:41Who is the lead this time? Why hasn't she arrived? What an arrogant creature.
47:45I only hope she isn't as ill-foughted as the last one.
47:48It's quite enough to be a mere background dancer.
47:50Well, whoever it is, it certainly won't be that one-legged girl.
48:04How could she...
48:10Is this a phantasm or have I descended into hell?
48:14We meet again. Allow me to reintroduce myself.
48:17I am today's prima dama, Ella Drumpf.
48:20How is this possible?
48:22Is that really her?
48:23God, she's gorgeous!
48:25Welcome back, Ella. Now the stage is yours to command.
48:38Boss, now I truly understand why you wouldn't wed no one but Miss Ella.
48:50My new performance I have witnessed in a decade!
48:54The performance I dreamed of and lost years ago.
48:58Finally, I can dance it for the one who appreciates it most.
49:10It was a great pleasure to complete this performance with you all.
49:15With every single one of you.
49:18Ella!
49:20You are the true prima donna. I am deeply sorry for what happened before.
49:38How is it that the great mafia king is reduced to performing the duties of a coachman for me?
49:46Because I am also your husband.
49:48Oh? And tell me, what duties does us a husband perform?
49:52Do you know as an announcement?
49:54You are.
50:07I am one, two, three, and four, five, five, six years ago.
50:08You never understand.
50:08I am all saying one.
