Short filmTranscript
00:00:04Today is my sister's wedding day, Jane's marrying the Earl of Windhealth, our debts will be cleared, father's honor restored.
00:00:35It's Elizabeth! This was just found in the bride's dressing room!
00:00:48Liz, please forgive me. I can't do this, I won't be traded off to some man. I'm so sorry it
00:00:53had to be you who found this. Don't come looking for me.
00:00:56Jane. Jane, do you know that if you run away from your wedding with the Earl of Windick, the Fenwick
00:01:03family will be ruined completely?
00:01:16The Fenwicks were once a distinguished family, before Sir Reginald ruined it.
00:01:20Indeed. If not for some old favor the Fenwicks once did the late Earl, it's hard to imagine this match
00:01:25ever being considered at all.
00:01:41Miss, Mr. Vale has come to hurry things along twice already.
00:01:47I know.
00:01:50Miss, you can't go in like this.
00:01:52There's no time.
00:01:57locked into a friend of a peep.
00:01:59Bitch, he tried to keep you
00:01:59Where am I?
00:02:07To come after work, you saw him and his brother came in.
00:02:08nhi whether you're theirind forward.
00:02:15Come after him.
00:02:15I know that
00:02:33That is not Jane Fenric, that's the younger sister.
00:02:36The younger sister, but she's...
00:02:38The illegitimate one, I should think.
00:02:40Good Lord, what an insult to the honour of the House of Wyndham.
00:02:47Why, Elizabeth, why would you put her in Jane's place?
00:02:51How could you replace my legitimate daughter and have Elizabeth marry the Earl instead?
00:02:56How dare you!
00:02:58Reginald, please, not here.
00:03:00People will see.
00:03:02Miss Fenwick.
00:03:03Yes, my lord.
00:03:05You are not Miss Jane Fenwick.
00:03:09Yes, my lord. I am her sister.
00:03:12I owe you an explanation, and I fully intend to give you one.
00:03:17My lord, I know this isn't what you agreed to.
00:03:20I have no right to ask anything of you, but...
00:03:26Marry me.
00:03:27Please, I'm begging you.
00:03:35Ladies and gentlemen, I thank you for your attendance this morning.
00:03:40It is my honour to present to you...
00:03:44My bride.
00:03:57On the night of my sister's wedding, I became a countess.
00:04:15Where is Lord Edward?
00:04:16His lordship was called away to London on urgent business.
00:04:19You may move to Thormut later today.
00:04:26He didn't even hear my explanation.
00:04:29He left without signing the marriage papers.
00:04:33Perhaps he never meant to sign them at all.
00:04:36Is this some kind of punishment?
00:04:38For taking my sister's place?
00:04:57Oh my gosh.
00:04:59Are you still alive?
00:05:01I didn't even peel that from another moment.
00:05:11None of us attended
00:05:13But I've heard every detail
00:05:15They say the sister ran off
00:05:17And the younger one took her place
00:05:18Showed up in riding clothes, no less
00:05:21You do keep well informed, Dorothea
00:05:23Tell me, was she truly in riding clothes?
00:05:26Mrs. Milsom's daughter was sitting in the front rows
00:05:28She said when the cloak fell
00:05:29The entire church went silent for a full five seconds
00:05:32Five seconds?
00:05:33When was the last time you managed that?
00:05:35I've never had the pleasure of causing such a spectacle
00:05:38Poor Earl
00:05:39Poor? I don't think so
00:05:40He doesn't do anything out of pity
00:05:42He has his reasons
00:05:43A piece of Fenwick land, an old debt, something of that sort
00:05:46As for the girl
00:05:48I'd wager she's some wild little country girl
00:05:50Hard carely fit for society
00:05:51Likely doesn't even know her manners
00:05:59Who is that over there?
00:06:01A gardener, or one of the maids
00:06:04Just look at the state of her
00:06:06About that level, I'd say
00:06:08Edward's new wife can't be much better
00:06:11You, the one picking strawberries, come here
00:06:19Are you speaking to me?
00:06:21Of course
00:06:21Who else could I be speaking to?
00:06:34Pour us some tea
00:06:41My dear, do stay for a cup of tea before you go
00:06:52Oh, how clumsy
00:06:57Lady Winfend, your tea is ready
00:06:59The housekeeper says there are new letters for your attention
00:07:02If you would come with me
00:07:09You're Edward's new wife?
00:07:21My lady
00:07:25That's my girl
00:07:27My lord
00:07:33Tell Lady Winwood that I
00:07:35Wait
00:07:40Give this to Lady Winburn
00:07:42And
00:07:45Yes, my lord
00:07:54Please excuse me
00:08:01You saw that, didn't you?
00:08:02The way she carried herself
00:08:03Deliberate
00:08:04Every bit of it
00:08:05Pretending to be a servant
00:08:06Just to make fools of us
00:08:07Yes
00:08:08Very deliberate
00:08:09Married in riding clothes
00:08:10Picking strawberries herself
00:08:12Hair in that state
00:08:13What?
00:08:14On earth has Edward brought help
00:08:16What indeed
00:08:18I am curious how you intend to finish that sentence, Dorothea
00:08:21Who do you think you are?
00:08:22A country girl who stumbled into a title through a farzical wedding
00:08:26What right do you have?
00:08:28Today you sit in my garden
00:08:29At my table
00:08:30Drinking tea you bought yourself
00:08:31And you didn't so much announce your arrival
00:08:33If you know your cousin as you say you do
00:08:34You'd know he dislikes being disturbed
00:08:36Next time, send word ahead
00:08:38I'll have tea prepared
00:08:39Properly hot, not scolding
00:08:42My lady
00:08:42The Earl will be arriving shortly
00:08:45He asks that you come out to receive him
00:08:48Is my cousin back?
00:08:50I haven't seen him in ages
00:08:52I'll go greet him as well
00:08:54Lady Dorotha
00:08:54Lord Edward has made it clear
00:08:56That now that he is married
00:08:58All visitors are to be received
00:09:00Only with Lady Winewield's consent
00:09:12Please lead the way
00:09:14My apologies, my lady
00:09:15His lordship has been called away again
00:09:17He did, however, leave strict instructions
00:09:20That you are not to be disturbed
00:09:21This was just delivered for you
00:09:30Word has it his trip to London had less to do with business
00:09:32And more to do with rekindling an old flame
00:09:34Cecilia Marlott
00:09:36His mother's goddaughter
00:09:37They were raised together at Thornwood, apparently
00:09:42What happened after?
00:09:44She married an old duke in Wales
00:09:47Poor girl
00:09:48You feel sorry for her?
00:09:50Her husband just died
00:09:52She's inherited a fortune
00:09:55Who knows?
00:09:55She might come back
00:09:56You'd better secure Lord Edward's affections while you can
00:10:01I have not seen him since our wedding
00:10:02What?
00:10:03How could that possibly be?
00:10:05It was wrong of me to take my sister's place and marry him that day
00:10:08I never thought beyond that
00:10:11Oh my dear
00:10:12What a cruel twist of fate
00:10:14You were meant to go to London to study
00:10:17And now you're trapped in this cold, dreadful place
00:10:20So his affections were already given elsewhere
00:10:23And I've only trapped him here
00:10:32After all
00:10:33What is there between Lord Edward and me but a signature in the parish register?
00:10:37A tranquil life that suits me well enough
00:10:41So cold
00:10:48Elizabeth
00:10:48Elizabeth
00:10:49Consider this my return for the insult
00:10:51Enjoy finding your way across Thornwood with nothing on
00:11:09Oh no
00:11:10Oh my...
00:11:16Oh no...
00:11:17Oh no...
00:11:30Stop!
00:11:31Stop right there!
00:11:33I am the Countess of Wyndham
00:11:36I command you to stop
00:11:38You have no idea what it means
00:11:40To offend the Countess of Wyndham
00:11:50My lord this is
00:11:51I can explain
00:11:54Please do not
00:11:58You may turn around now
00:12:07My lord
00:12:07This is entirely unnecessary
00:12:09I assure you I am quite capable of
00:12:12You are barefoot on flint
00:12:13Kindly be still
00:12:22My lord
00:12:24I'm here
00:12:26I still owe you an explanation
00:12:27Are you willing to hear it now?
00:12:32As you can see I'm not otherwise occupied
00:12:37I took my sister's place and married you that day
00:12:39Because
00:12:41Because I wanted my mother to stop being beaten
00:12:44I see
00:12:48You didn't need to do any of this
00:12:51The moment you said I do at that altar
00:12:53You fulfilled the agreement
00:12:54You owe me nothing more
00:12:56So this is all just an agreement to you?
00:12:58Nothing more?
00:12:59Is it not?
00:13:00I don't make a habit of saying things I don't mean, Liz
00:13:07That's the first time he's said my name
00:13:09I understand, my lord
00:13:10Call me Edward
00:13:11I've married you
00:13:13You're my wife
00:13:14You hold all the rights of the Countess of Thornworth
00:13:16Including the right to know your husband
00:13:31Cecilia
00:13:33Cecilia Marlow
00:13:35The girl Edward grew up with
00:13:40My lord
00:13:41Edward
00:13:42Sit down
00:13:45May I ask you a question?
00:13:47Please do
00:13:49Is there someone else you care for?
00:13:52In London, perhaps?
00:13:57Are you angry with me for leaving right after the wedding?
00:14:00Not in the least
00:14:01I only mean to say
00:14:03I've no objection to any other attachments you may have
00:14:06This marriage serves both our families
00:14:09I have no wish to be a petty, jealous Countess
00:14:12And if I were to tell you there is no such person
00:14:14Would you believe me?
00:14:18I, yes
00:14:19I believe I would
00:14:21I
00:14:31Elizabeth
00:14:32You are the only Lady Windorf
00:14:34I should like
00:14:36If you're willing
00:14:37To have a true marriage
00:14:40In every sense
00:14:43In every sense
00:14:45Is he asking me to bear an heir for the Wyndham line?
00:14:50Come in
00:14:53It is late
00:14:55Yes
00:15:06Elizabeth
00:15:08Yes
00:15:10You are frightened
00:15:13I, I'm not
00:15:14I, I mean it would be entirely reasonable for you to
00:15:16Elizabeth
00:15:20I will not require anything of you tonight
00:15:23I beg your pardon
00:15:24You heard me
00:15:26But
00:15:26It is
00:15:27It is your right
00:15:28I am aware of what the law allows me
00:15:32But that isn't the measure I intend to follow
00:15:37Good night Elizabeth
00:15:40Does he not want me?
00:16:10Edward
00:16:11Edward
00:16:18This isn't helpful
00:16:47That's a...
00:17:05God, how could I dream something like that about him?
00:17:08I must be out of my mind
00:17:09My Lady
00:17:10Breakfast is ready
00:17:14Coming!
00:17:29I was unsure of your preferences
00:17:32So I asked the cook to prepare a variety
00:17:38He arranged all of this
00:17:39What does he take me for?
00:17:41It would appear that his lordship is determined to keep you abundantly supplied
00:17:54I shall do my best to return in time for the gathering at Whitmore this evening
00:18:07Lady Wyndham
00:18:08Lady Wyndham
00:18:09How lovely to find you here
00:18:13And all on your own
00:18:16Rupert
00:18:16Rupert
00:18:17You know Lady Wyndham
00:18:18I believe
00:18:18Miss Fenwick
00:18:21My apologies, Lady Winford
00:18:23The title still takes one by surprise, I must admit
00:18:26Good evening, Miss Fane
00:18:28Mr. Bellamy
00:18:29Rupert and I have some happy news
00:18:32We're to be formally engaged at the McKeelma School
00:18:35Dorothea was gracious enough to accept me
00:18:38Though I suspect she rather enjoys making me wait
00:18:41Our union, of course, has been rather more conventional
00:18:45Years of acquaintance
00:18:46Shared society
00:18:48A genuine understanding of one another's character
00:18:50How refreshing that some marriages may still be arranged so expeditiously
00:18:58My lady
00:19:00A message for you
00:19:07Cannot return to Thornwith before midnight
00:19:09Enjoy the party
00:19:15Another entire evening to yourself
00:19:18One cannot help but wonder
00:19:19Had you known
00:19:21Why bother to attend at all?
00:19:23Lord Wyndham chose to marry me, Dorothea
00:19:25I've never felt the need to examine his reasons too closely
00:19:30Come, Rupert
00:19:31It's been ages since I last danced
00:19:33He must indulge me this evening
00:19:52Lady Wyndham
00:19:53What a fortunate coincidence
00:19:54Mr. Bellamy
00:19:55I assume your fiancé is inside
00:19:58Ah, yes
00:19:59I stepped out for some air
00:20:01And seemed to have lost my way
00:20:03You look very well, Lady Winford
00:20:04Marriage suits you
00:20:06Thank you, I believe I should return home
00:20:07No need to hurry
00:20:08It's a fine night
00:20:09That's enough, Mr. Bellamy
00:20:11Come now, Elizabeth
00:20:12A woman as young as you
00:20:13As lovely as you
00:20:16Deserves far more than a cold bed
00:20:18And a husband
00:20:19That's enough
00:20:21Mr. Bellamy
00:20:22I mean it kindly
00:20:34Good heavens, how did I end up here?
00:20:36My lady
00:20:37I'm coming
00:20:51Lady Wyndham
00:20:52You are going the wrong way
00:20:54Allow me to show you out
00:21:03Then let me be plain, Mr. Bellamy
00:21:06Leave these grounds at once
00:21:10And who exactly is meant to make them?
00:21:21There is no need to be alarmed
00:21:23I only wish to talk
00:21:25Then speak from where you stand
00:21:30My dear
00:21:35Stop!
00:21:39What do you think you're doing?
00:21:43Dorothea, you must forgive me
00:21:44I was only trying to remove myself
00:21:46From a most uncomfortable situation
00:21:47Lady Wyndham had sought me out
00:21:49Elizabeth, how dare you try and scare my fiancé
00:21:52At a gathering like this
00:21:53That is not
00:21:53I mean no disrespect
00:21:55But I am a man of honour
00:21:56And I think it best to be plain
00:21:57Good lord
00:21:58Did she really
00:22:01Try to seduce Lady Dorothea's fiancé?
00:22:03I've long suspected she wasn't quite respectable
00:22:07I shall inform Lord Edward at once
00:22:09He'll have you turned out of Thornwood without hesitation
00:22:11Now, apologise to my fiancé
00:22:14At once
00:22:15Miss Vane
00:22:16You will address me correctly
00:22:18Or you will not address me at all
00:22:20You are not worth the courtesy
00:22:37My lord
00:22:38Thank god you're here
00:22:40Lady Winford approached Rupert herself
00:22:42We were only trying to
00:22:44When did he arrive?
00:22:45How much did he hear?
00:22:46Does he believe them?
00:22:48Are you hurt?
00:22:54Edward
00:22:55Edward
00:23:03My apologies
00:23:04I seem to have arrived a moment too late
00:23:08Good lord
00:23:10Has Lord Wyndham really ruined a hundred year old young maize?
00:23:14For a wife of such low birth
00:23:20Let every person here who has dishonoured my wife hear me
00:23:24Before this night is over
00:23:25You will regret it
00:23:27Yes, my lord
00:23:28Edward
00:23:29My lord
00:23:30I am your cousin
00:23:32You cannot treat me like this
00:23:34If you mean to say you're my mother's cousin's granddaughter
00:23:38I have over fifty others just like you
00:23:45Grateful girl
00:23:47What on earth possessed you to insult the Countess of Wyndham?
00:23:52You wretched boy
00:23:53I paid off your gambling seats with the Earl's own money
00:23:56How dare you make yourself a nuisance before him and his wife?
00:24:02You have endured enough
00:24:05Home awaits us
00:24:09Edward, you must know
00:24:11I did not seek Mr. Bellarmine out
00:24:13I...
00:24:13I know
00:24:14I know precisely what kind of man he is
00:24:16I believe you, Elizabeth
00:24:18We have been married for a few days now
00:24:21We have
00:24:23And I find I know remarkably little about you
00:24:26I believe goes both ways
00:24:28Perhaps this presents an opportunity to remedy that
00:24:30We might begin with a kiss
00:24:35He's asking to kiss me
00:24:36On horseback
00:24:38Out in the open in the middle of the night
00:24:40God knows how long I've waited for this moment
00:24:43You have my permission
00:25:01It's alright
00:25:02He's settled now
00:25:09We're home
00:25:13My lord
00:25:14My lady
00:25:22I'll see you shortly, Elizabeth
00:25:25Shortly?
00:25:26What does he mean, shortly?
00:25:28Tonight?
00:25:29I thought I had rather expected
00:25:30I seem to have expected it more than I realized
00:25:32Yes
00:25:33Shortly then
00:25:49Of course
00:25:50Of all nights, it would be this one
00:26:01Come in
00:26:05There's something I must tell you
00:26:07It concerns a domestic matter
00:26:12I see
00:26:16Does he?
00:26:17Does he truly?
00:26:18Please God
00:26:19Let him understand without making me say it outright
00:26:23Come
00:26:34No
00:26:35Not like this
00:26:38How are you feeling?
00:26:40Rather better, thank you
00:26:42Forgive me
00:26:44Elizabeth
00:26:44Yes
00:26:45Stop apologizing
00:26:46Yes, very well
00:26:51Elizabeth
00:27:18Elizabeth
00:27:31He's gone
00:27:32Of course he's gone
00:27:34I failed him last night
00:27:37Come in
00:28:01Is something wrong?
00:28:04No
00:28:05No, nothing
00:28:10I wasn't certain of your preference this morning
00:28:12Mrs. Hilda suggested something warm
00:28:14There's chocolate
00:28:15If you'd prefer it to tea
00:28:39You have

00:30:12Of course.
00:30:37Free.
00:30:52That's Edward's mother.
00:30:54She looks so young to find.
00:30:59Lady Adelaine, forgive the intrusion.
00:31:03I am...
00:31:12Lady Wyndham.
00:31:16I had wondered when we should meet.
00:31:19I am Cecilia.
00:31:20Lady Adelaine was called away unexpectedly.
00:31:24She asked me to receive you in her place.
00:31:26That's her.
00:31:28Cecilia Marlowe.
00:31:30Lady Adelaine's goddaughter.
00:31:32The woman Edward wants love to marry.
00:31:37You're Grace.
00:31:38The pleasure is mine.
00:31:40Please, none of that.
00:31:41We're practically family now.
00:31:43Adelaine will be back shortly.
00:31:44In the meantime, Georgina, Edward's younger sister, is in the South Garden.
00:31:47Shall we?
00:31:48Lady Adelaide summoned me.
00:31:49Yet she's here.
00:31:50Was she hoping Edward would meet with her instead?
00:31:59She carries herself as if she owns the place.
00:32:15She goes to her house.
00:32:18She goes to her house.
00:32:19She goes to her house.
00:32:26She goes to her house.
00:32:28That's oof.
00:32:30Ah, the new Lady Wyndham. And what do you do for amusement?
00:32:34I read. I write.
00:32:35I am sure Lady Wyndham has many other accomplishments, Georgie.
00:32:38Of course she does. Most people do when they can't shoot.
00:32:41No offense, Elizabeth. It simply requires a certain constitution.
00:32:45Not everyone has it.
00:32:47Perhaps Lady Wyndham would care to try. It is only fair to offer.
00:32:50Oh, by all means, bring another gun.
00:32:55A gun for beginners.
00:32:58Do you know your way around guns?
00:33:01Elizabeth, you needn't oblige.
00:33:04Georgie is only teasing. You can watch if you prefer.
00:33:17Well.
00:33:20You had three. I shall not be greedy.
00:33:36Mother.
00:33:37Where on earth did you find her?
00:33:39She found me.
00:33:41I like her.
00:33:44So do I.
00:33:51Come in.
00:33:57My mother asked me to convey her apologies.
00:34:00She had no intention of neglecting you today.
00:34:03I understand. Georgiana and the Duchess of Ravensbrow made the afternoon quite agreeable.
00:34:11It's Friday.
00:34:12So it is.
00:34:14I must admit, I am not entirely certain how one is meant to begin.
00:34:18Nor am I.
00:34:24I should warn you there are rather a great many hooks. 23.
00:34:31I see.
00:34:46I confess I don't quite know what I meant to do with my-
00:34:51Elizabeth.
00:34:54You are not supposed to do anything.
00:35:04The desk.
00:35:05I thought you might find it easier to begin with.
00:35:10I did not realize how warm his hands would feel.
00:35:22Breathe.
00:35:25You are going to suffocate yourself.
00:35:34Are you ready?
00:35:35I-
00:35:40I'll take that as a yes.
00:35:44Let's begin.
00:36:06I believe it's okay.
00:36:09Ciao.
00:36:10Yes.
00:36:11I will take that as well.
00:36:12No.
00:36:12No.
00:36:13I don't see the kitchen.
00:36:17No.
00:36:28All right, you absolutely must tell me everything.
00:36:33I've no idea what you mean.
00:36:34Elizabeth Winwen, née Fenwork.
00:36:37You arrived at my door this morning wearing the very expression of a woman who has just
00:36:42discovered something rather surprising about the world.
00:36:45Was it?
00:36:46Was it Friday?
00:36:49You are incorrible.
00:36:51I am your oldest friend and I deserve details.
00:36:53Was he?
00:36:54He was considerate.
00:36:58Extraordinary so.
00:37:00How?
00:37:01He made quite certain that I was comfortable.
00:37:06Before anything else.
00:37:08Several times, in fact.
00:37:11Good Lord.
00:37:12That is all I shall say on the subject.
00:37:14And afterward, in the morning?
00:37:18He said, come back to bed.
00:37:21As though I'd been there all along.
00:37:24Only meant to return.
00:37:26He held my hand.
00:37:29Lizzie.
00:37:32Don't.
00:37:33You like him.
00:37:36I am beginning to think I might.
00:37:44We're stuck in the mud.
00:37:55We'll need to push from the left.
00:37:57Wedge something under the wheel first.
00:37:59There's a plank in the ditch.
00:38:02Perhaps we ought to wait for someone to pass by.
00:38:15Lizzie.
00:38:16How can I pass?
00:38:29same as ever still finding trouble on a perfectly straight road the road found me i was perfectly

00:40:29together and he close together you say why yes and he he took hold of her sleeve
00:40:35and then she drew back in the end but she knew him well edward he called her lizzie
00:40:41what was the man's name lennox edgar lennox i've heard of this edgar lennox the viscount's son the one
00:40:48who has been off painting in italy for the past six years and you must also know that he and

00:42:12georgiana is young and her emotions have been known to obscure her judgment
00:42:15i thought you should know that i sent her right away
00:42:18he didn't ask me to ride because he sought to question me
00:42:21it's because he wished to inform me he sent georgiana away

01:01:04By law, yes.
01:01:08Shall we discuss law, Sir Reginald?
01:01:17Come in.
01:01:24My lord, I have come to take my wife home.
01:01:30These are private accounts, my lord. You have no right to...
01:01:32The Fenwood Estate carries debts to four creditors in this county.
01:01:36Two of those creditors sold their notes last month.
01:01:39To me, the roof you sleep under, the fields you work on, the horses in your stable...
01:01:45The papers holding your whole world together are sitting in my solicitor's office in Shrewsborough.
01:01:50My lord, I have always treated my family with the utmost...
01:01:55I have seen perfectly clearly how you treat your family.
01:01:58Lady Margaret's personal income will be administered through my estate, to be used as she pleases.
01:02:04If I receive word from any source that you have interfered with this agreement,
01:02:08you will lose your house, your land, and whatever is left of your name in this county.
01:02:12Lady Margaret's personal income will be tested...
01:02:18My wife sends her regards.
01:02:31Lady Margaret's personal income to any source of remdesivir...
01:02:32He'll take me away, I know it.
01:02:35Oh, Lord, that man will never let me leave him.
01:02:37No. Edward will handle everything.
01:02:42I saw them in the study this morning.
01:02:45As did I.
01:02:48Elizabeth. Is he... is he a good man, your lord?
01:03:02He's the best man I've ever met, mother.
01:03:34He's the best man I've ever met.
01:03:36How long will you be gone for?
01:03:38Four months, perhaps.
01:03:43I don't wish to go.
01:03:45I know. I know you don't.
01:03:49Elizabeth, I...
01:03:51It's Friday, you know.
01:03:59I'll be gentle.
01:04:01So will I.
01:04:03Don't be too gentle.
01:04:16I promise you'll write me.
01:04:21Every day.
01:04:38My lord, it is the 14th of March and your child has spent this morning using my ribs as a
01:04:46set of piano keys.
01:04:47Dr. Holt says the baby is healthy and that it shouldn't be much longer now.
01:04:51Come home soon, Edward.
01:04:53Edward, we both eagerly await your return.
01:05:03A letter from London, my lady.
01:05:06In his lordship's own hand.
01:05:11Elizabeth, your letter from the 8th arrived my morning.
01:05:15I have read it four times, front to back.
01:05:19Today I write to tell you I am coming home.
01:05:21I find I have a great deal to tell our child, and even more to tell you.
01:05:26Did you hear that, Edward?
01:05:29Our baby's ready to meet you.
01:05:32My lady, there are two gentlemen at the door.
01:05:35Officers, I believe.
01:05:36They are carrying a sealed summon.
01:05:46Lady Winverde, we are here to deliver a summons from His Royal Highness, the Prince Regent.
01:05:50Your presence is urgently required in London, and the matter is one of considerable importance.
01:05:57May I have the night to prepare?
01:05:59I'm afraid we cannot afford any delay, my lady.
01:06:02The carriage is prepared.
01:06:07Very well.
01:06:09Allow me five minutes to gather my pains.
01:06:21My lady, the seal on this carriage.
01:06:24I need time to verify it.
01:06:29Lady Wyndham, I'm sure you don't want to anger the Prince Regent.
01:06:44That sound.
01:06:46This isn't the road to London.
01:06:48It's the cliff road.
01:06:52Stop this carriage!
01:06:54Stop the carriage!
01:06:55Immediately!
01:07:08Elizabeth!
01:07:11Elizabeth!
01:07:26Elizabeth!
01:07:37Edward!
01:07:38Take my hand!
01:07:49Edward!
01:07:50Yes?
01:07:51What is it?
01:07:52I think...
01:07:52I think the child is coming.
01:07:56No!
01:08:13My lord, this lodge is currently occupied by his royal highness.
01:08:17Move.
01:08:26No!
01:08:40Your first child?
01:08:41Yes.
01:08:42I have been informed about the incident on the cliff road, the carriage, the summons.
01:08:46Who was it?
01:08:46A widow.
01:08:47Recently returned from London.
01:08:49She forged the seal.
01:08:51She also set fire to the east ring of my home in October.
01:08:54The Dowager Grednas?
01:08:55Yes, your highness.
01:08:56I assure you that this matter will be investigated fully.
01:08:59She will bring no more trouble your household.
01:09:02Thank you, your highness.
01:09:03Thank you, your highness.
01:09:04And for this, for allowing us in.
01:09:06Don't thank me for that.
01:09:07Thank my wife.
01:09:08She heard the commotion at the gate and gave the order before I could even open my mouth.
01:09:12She sounds like a formidable woman.
01:09:13She sounds like a formidable woman.
01:09:16That's one way to put it.
01:09:25My lord, Lady Windry is well.
01:09:28You have a son.
01:09:40He has your eyes.
01:09:45Why am I there?
