13:33if you want to divorce fine
13:34i will take my dowie with me
13:37i signed an agreement with you back then
13:39you could use my money to run your estate
13:41but if we ever divorce i can take all of my money back

14:14not necessarily
14:15after all the earl isn't his real father either
14:17he should be used to it by now
14:19used to having multiple fathers
14:20little hastings searching for his daddies
14:23who are you talking about
14:24may i ask what were you just talking about
14:27so you really don't know
14:28that wantal mother of yours is famous all over england now
14:32what is that supposed to mean
14:34last week
14:34at least dozens of guests saw your mother screwing a yankee in your home with their own eyes
14:39say that again
14:41i said
14:42your mother is a
15:06you haven't been home in a long time

15:47how i wish that when others talk about you
15:51i could reprimand them with a clear conscience
15:55but i cannot
15:58because i know my mother better than anyone
16:02are you accusing your mother
16:05if i hadn't secured a decent life for you

16:11where i was born was not my choice
16:13at least i can choose where i die in the future

31:53won't your heroic charms
31:54go to waste
31:56jealous
32:03my mother invited her
32:05it's obvious what they're up to
32:08that's why i suddenly have
32:09urgent military business
32:10and must go to london
32:14poor you
32:15come with me
32:16it'll save you from staying here

32:22and have you forgotten
32:24i almost killed a piece of
32:25trash once
32:26wait for me to return
32:30your household is quite unique
32:33even maids are allowed
32:34to serve in the dining room now
32:36as you know
32:37it's hard enough to find
32:38three able-hearted young men
32:39in an entire estate
32:40these days
32:41quite true
32:44evelyn
32:45pour some wine
32:46for miss ashworth
32:50i heard from my father
32:52that even the queen
32:53praised sebastian's bravery
32:55are you serious
32:57oh my goodness
32:58when will he ever cure himself
33:00of this dreadful habit
33:02of being overly modest
33:03you shouldn't say that
33:05nowadays
33:06old-fashioned gentlemen
33:07like sebastian
33:08are rarer than a rhino's hair
33:10i'd rather be knocked
33:11unconscious right now
33:12than listen to the two of them
33:13carry on with this chaprade
33:15i also think so
33:17and because he is so precious
33:18there are always those
33:20who hyper unrealistic
33:21fantasies about him
33:22madam
33:23what kind of lady
33:24do you think
33:25would be a suitable match
33:26for your son
33:27don't you already know
33:28the answer to that
33:30of all the noble ladies
33:32in england
33:32you are the only one
33:34i wrote to you
33:38a woman's intuition
33:39is indeed remarkably accurate
33:43by the way margaret
33:44i heard from your mother
33:46that your birthday
33:47is in a week
33:47seb will surely be back

34:01trouble for you
34:02of course not
34:04seb loves hunting too
34:06i'll have him accompany you then
34:13you seem quite interested in her
34:18i just feel that she doesn't
34:19seem like an ordinary maid
34:20oh
34:22i'm a very good judge
34:23of character
34:25madam i'm willing to bet
34:26that this maid of yours
34:27has quite a background
34:30is that so
34:31then i really ought to look
34:33into this little slut's background
34:42mother it's too hard
34:44i don't want to learn
34:46darling
34:47don't you want to be a lady
34:49no
34:50sister can be the lady

39:47i do not agree
39:49to this marriage
39:50miss ashfield
39:51my mother's decision
39:52does not represent my own
39:53if she insists on uniting our family
39:56then the only way is for my stepfather lord hastings
39:59to divorce her
40:02and marry into your family himself
40:08miss evelyn
40:09there is something i must say to you
40:11what words

40:43was it real
40:44or did you just do it to spite your mother
40:47it is real
40:55i actually
40:57i'm really not that good
40:59that doesn't sound like something you would say
41:02what if you discover that i'm
41:04actually a very bad person
41:07aren't you
41:08in my eyes you have always been a little troublemaker
41:15i told you my feelings not to burden you
41:18but to let you know that in this world
41:19you are no longer alone
41:31he is wonderful
41:33but not nearly enough to make me let go of my hatred
41:43stop right there
41:52did you sleep well last night
41:54of course madam
41:57that's why i actually admire you
42:02if i were you
42:04living under your enemy's roof
42:06i would sleep with one eye open wouldn't you
42:09you might as well speak plainly madam
42:11mary elizabeth thornton
42:13born in 1921 new york
42:16father david thornton wealthy manhattan businessman
42:19mother katherine thornton
42:21sister sophia thornton
42:23when little mary was eight her governess and her gangster boyfriend
42:26collided to squeal the thorntons out of everything
42:28david thornton was beaten to death by lone harks
42:31sophia thornton was violated to death
42:34katherine thornton slit her wrists
42:35little mary was sent to an orphanage
42:42does this story sound familiar to you little mary
42:45doesn't it read just like a piece of tabloid news
42:50reading these letters even i felt like shedding a tear or two for poor little mary
42:55so you came here for revenge from the very first day
42:58am i right
43:00i really didn't recognize that little bastard who cowered on her tiny bed
43:04watching me sleep with her father without daring to utter a single sound
43:08had grown up to be so big
43:11you knew i was awake
43:13i figured you did
43:14yes i knew
43:15your father took advantage of me and now my son takes advantage of you
43:19doesn't that make us even how is that the same no matter how wretched i am i would never compare
43:23myself to an old whore
43:24go ahead curse all you want
43:27compared to what i took from your family being insulted by you means absolutely nothing to me
43:31how tragic
43:32why does he have a mother like you in all these years has there been even a single moment when
43:36you felt a shred of guilt for what you did
43:40guilt
43:42oh young lady you are delightfully naive
43:44it is a dog eat dog world
43:46that old horny dog of a father of yours deserved to pay for his lust
43:50as for your sister
43:52she brought it upon herself dying in a swarm of men
43:55is that my fault
43:57and your useless mother
43:58a mother who cannot protect her own child doesn't deserve to live in this world anyway does she
44:03look at me
44:04i would do anything for my son
44:06you are absolutely right
44:09it is a dog eat dog world
44:11i was too naive to ask a mad dog if she felt guilt
44:16at this stage there's no need for me to kick you out is there
44:19if i see you tomorrow don't blame me for having you thrown out
44:32my dearest seb since the day you left home i have departed from the castle and checked into the red

52:28she came to england through her own hard work
52:30to become a maid
52:30wanting nothing more than to live an ordinary life
52:32however the defendant
52:33sebastian hastings
52:34used his status and power
52:35to commit an atrocious assault
52:37against this helpless woman
52:38on the night of the incident
52:39miss evelyn had just celebrated her birthday
52:41she regarded the defendant as a friend
52:43perhaps even more
52:44and the defendant exploited that trust
52:46the trust of a friend
52:48what did you see near the crime scene that night
52:51i i came out of the pub
52:52and heard someone calling for help
52:54then i saw a young woman

52:57running toward me barefoot
52:58trembling all over
52:59crying so hard she couldn't speak
53:00when you saw her
53:01what did she say
53:02she she pointed at a car
53:03parked on the roadside
53:04saying the man inside
53:05raped her
53:06and did you see the defendant at that time
53:08yes i did
53:08he was sitting inside that luxury car
53:10what was he doing at the time
