Oh, I'll grab that. Thank you.

Excuse me.
4
00:00:28,820 --> 00:00:29,821
Sorry.
5

Excuse me.

00:00:50,342 --> 00:00:51,927
Mother, why are you sneaking around?

It's starting soon, and he's not here.
8
00:00:54,596 --> 00:00:56,849
Nan, Lord Richard's not here.
9
00:00:56,849 --> 00:00:58,225
It's fine. Go downstairs.
10
00:00:58,225 --> 00:00:59,810
Well, how can it ever be fine?
11
00:00:59,810 --> 00:01:02,729
- Is Conchita dressed?
- Yes, quite dressed. Go downstairs.
12
00:01:09,152 --> 00:01:11,572
[Nan] I was never supposed to be
the main character.
13
00:01:12,614 --> 00:01:13,532
Always more than glad
14
00:01:13,532 --> 00:01:15,409
- to let Jinny, my sister...
- Oh, he'll come.
15
00:01:15,409 --> 00:01:17,202
...and my friends compete for all of that.
16
00:01:17,202 --> 00:01:18,620
Because I know he'll come.
17
00:01:21,957 --> 00:01:25,127
Girls are taught to believe
that if a story isn't a love story,
18
00:01:26,170 --> 00:01:27,254
it's a tragedy.
19
00:01:29,381 --> 00:01:31,466
- And I had no interest at all...
- What if he doesn't?
20
00:01:31,466 --> 00:01:33,552
...in being involved
with either one of those.
21
00:01:35,470 --> 00:01:38,682
The whole world knew
that my best friend's was a love story.
22
00:01:39,391 --> 00:01:42,519
A whirlwind romance
with a handsome English lord
23
00:01:42,519 --> 00:01:45,147
can only be followed
by a huge society wedding,
24
00:01:46,231 --> 00:01:47,608
to make entirely certain
25
00:01:47,608 --> 00:01:50,944
anyone not envious of Conchita yet,
soon would be.
26
00:01:52,571 --> 00:01:56,283
But nobody's jealous of a bride
whose groom has failed to show.
27
00:01:57,701 --> 00:01:58,619
Anything?
28
00:01:59,786 --> 00:02:03,040
- Nothing. And downstairs?
- Well, the guests have barely noticed.
29
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,584

- Conchie, he will come.

00:02:05,584 --> 00:02:08,503
...the most beautiful day--
And the whole world is here.
31
00:02:08,503 --> 00:02:12,007
Gosh, I hate him. You have no idea
how much I loathe him.
32
00:02:12,007 --> 00:02:14,343

33
00:02:15,219 --> 00:02:17,596
Of course, I love him.
I know I love him. I love him.
34
00:02:17,596 --> 00:02:19,640
I just-- I should have known.
35
00:02:19,640 --> 00:02:21,975
Last night
he just seemed so much further away.
36
00:02:21,975 --> 00:02:23,602
Richard's never further away
37
00:02:23,602 --> 00:02:26,021
- than just right here.
- Oh, Nan. [sighs]
38
00:02:28,899 --> 00:02:30,943
[sighs] I should have told him,
shouldn't I?
39
00:02:31,902 --> 00:02:35,364
But I don't want him to marry me
because he has to,
40
00:02:35,364 --> 00:02:37,491
I want him to marry me
because he adores me.
41
00:02:37,491 --> 00:02:38,825
Yes.
42
00:02:38,825 --> 00:02:40,160
I'm ruined.

47
00:02:58,554 --> 00:03:00,639
[Nan] What if we just started
putting on the dress,
48
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,559
- and then he'll get here any second--
- No, Nan. I just don't know. [gasps]

[Conchita] No, Nan, you idiot.

Stop. What are you doing?

- Yeah, my wedding.
- Yes, there's a wedding.

00:04:01,116 --> 00:04:04,286
- And nobody likes to talk about it.
- [Jinny] Come in and clean yourself up!
67
00:04:04,286 --> 00:04:06,079
- For the wedding.
- [Nan] Oh, you heard about that.
68
00:04:06,079 --> 00:04:07,915
Apparently you can't be too clean
for a wedding.
69
00:04:07,915 --> 00:04:09,666
- [chuckles] Yeah.
- What a fuss everyone makes.
70
00:04:09,666 --> 00:04:10,918
Do you want to get married?
71
00:04:11,835 --> 00:04:13,545
No-- I'm not-- I didn't-- That wasn't--
72
00:04:13,545 --> 00:04:15,422
That wasn't a proposal. [sighs]
73
00:04:15,422 --> 00:04:20,928
- Nan. Come on, Nan. I need you. Let's go.
- Annabel, do stop causing a commotion.
74
00:04:21,512 --> 00:04:22,679
Tricky things, mothers.
75
00:04:22,679 --> 00:04:24,890
That's not my mother.
That's my governess, Miss Testvalley.

It's Dick's carriage.

Listen, don't say a word.
84
00:04:49,206 --> 00:04:51,917
I've not slept a wink all night.
I need you to give this to Conchita.
85
00:04:51,917 --> 00:04:55,462
No. And I don't believe
you want her to have it either.
86

There's not an ounce of bad in Conchita.

No, of course not,
but it-it's only my parents.

Don't say parents.
89

They wouldn't want to come, of course.

at the best of times.
91

Well, hasn't this summer been
the best of times?

- With Conchita?
- Yes.
93
00:05:09,142 --> 00:05:11,979
I've never known times like it.
But will she work in England?
94
00:05:11,979 --> 00:05:13,564
[stammers] Will she fit in?
95
00:05:15,065 --> 00:05:17,067

that goes unnoticed.

- Mm-hmm.

Gosh.
102
00:05:29,162 --> 00:05:32,374
Yes. And your parents want you to do what?
103
00:05:32,374 --> 00:05:35,961
I don't know. [stammers] Go home
and start acting sensibly, I expect.
104
00:05:35,961 --> 00:05:38,088
- Oh, God, Nan. She's a miracle.
- Yes.
105
00:05:38,088 --> 00:05:40,674
- I get drunk on her. [chuckling]
- Yes! It's you and Conchita.
106
00:05:40,674 --> 00:05:43,760
Who wants to act sensibly?
And who wants their life to go unnoticed?

Oh, of course you have no interest at all
in being admired.

Well, I have no interest
in the man doing the admiring.

But I've really gotta...
169
00:11:58,427 --> 00:12:01,305
You'll get home, and your mother
will be delighted to see you.
170
00:12:04,808 --> 00:12:05,976
If only you could come with me.
171
00:12:08,187 --> 00:12:10,480
I did. From-- From there to here.
172
00:12:12,399 --> 00:12:13,609
Our first trip.
173
00:12:14,943 --> 00:12:17,654
By the way, I'm Nan. Nan St. George.
174
00:12:18,947 --> 00:12:21,283
- Bye then, Nan St. George.
- [coach driver exclaims]
175
00:12:33,212 --> 00:12:36,256
We're here. We're right in it.
176
00:12:36,965 --> 00:12:42,763
- And it only took five years. [chuckles]
- Yep. Only five short years. [laughs]
177
00:12:46,683 --> 00:12:50,479
My dear, when we were neighbors
back in little old Saratoga,
178
00:12:50,479 --> 00:12:51,647
who could have thought--
179
00:12:51,647 --> 00:12:53,607
That when we moved here,
you'd be right behind us.
180
00:12:53,607 --> 00:12:55,359
[laughing]
181
00:12:55,359 --> 00:12:57,069
[sighs] That unbred laugh.
182
00:12:57,069 --> 00:12:59,780
Sweetheart, you are here now.
183
00:13:01,782 --> 00:13:04,952
Enjoy. [chuckles]
184
00:13:05,577 --> 00:13:06,578
Ladies.
185
00:13:07,996 --> 00:13:10,541
Well, I guess over here
is the best view of the party.
186
00:13:10,541 --> 00:13:12,876
- [party guests laughing, chattering]
- [party guest] Look. It's Mrs. Paramore.
187
00:13:12,876 --> 00:13:15,128
[party guest 2 gasps] She's here.
Oh, look at her dress.
188
00:13:15,128 --> 00:13:16,505
Oh, Mrs. Paramore.
189
00:13:17,089 --> 00:13:21,134
We were hoping to catch you in regards
to invitations to the Assembly Ball.
190
00:13:22,928 --> 00:13:25,305
[chuckling]
I'm Mrs. St. George, Mrs. Paramore.
191
00:13:26,431 --> 00:13:28,767
And this is my Jinny.
One of the bridesmaids.
192
00:13:28,767 --> 00:13:32,688
- And my Lizzy.
- Oh, yes. St. George.
193
00:13:32,688 --> 00:13:36,066
- The family from Saratoga. [laughs]
- We live in the city now.
194
00:13:36,066 --> 00:13:40,070
- My husband did awful well at the stock--
- Good for him. Good for all of you.
195
00:13:40,571 --> 00:13:41,905
Mrs. Closson,
196
00:13:41,905 --> 00:13:45,200
- your canapés are fit for a lord.
- [Mrs. Closson] Oh, why thank you.
197
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:46,743
I'm sorry, Mother, was I supposed--
198
00:13:46,743 --> 00:13:49,872
- No. [shushes] You did just as you should.
- [Richard] Mrs. St. George,
199
00:13:50,789 --> 00:13:54,042
I'm afraid you can't attend
a New York ball of any kind this season.
200
00:13:54,668 --> 00:13:56,587
- Well, I see no reason, now th--
- My mother--
201
00:13:56,587 --> 00:13:57,588
Lady Brightlingsea.
202
00:13:57,588 --> 00:13:59,173
Why, yes, of course. [chuckles]
203
00:13:59,173 --> 00:14:04,511
[chuckles] Yes. My mother, um, she insists
that I invite you and your daughters,
204
00:14:04,511 --> 00:14:06,805
Conchita's bridesmaids, to London.
205
00:14:08,682 --> 00:14:09,725
London?
206
00:14:11,560 --> 00:14:14,897
London, London? England?
207
00:14:14,897 --> 00:14:18,066
- All of Conchita's bridesmaids?
- There was talk, Mrs. Paramore,
208
00:14:18,066 --> 00:14:22,529
that for certain girls of refinement,
New York has become too limited.
209
00:14:22,529 --> 00:14:26,491
- Very limited, I quite agree.
- Yes, I quite agree too.
210
00:14:26,491 --> 00:14:28,118
And there's an urgency...
211
00:14:28,118 --> 00:14:29,494
The start of the season.
212
00:14:30,078 --> 00:14:32,206
...in order that Jinny
and the other debutantes
213
00:14:32,206 --> 00:14:35,709
may be presented at the Debutante's Ball.
214
00:14:35,709 --> 00:14:38,170
- To the Queen.
- [gasping]
215
00:14:38,170 --> 00:14:39,087
[chuckles]
216
00:14:40,339 --> 00:14:41,465
The Queen.
217
00:14:42,090 --> 00:14:45,719
Well, that is v-very kind
of Lady Brightlingsea.
218
00:14:46,929 --> 00:14:48,222
Oh, and Mrs. Paramore,
219
00:14:48,972 --> 00:14:52,726
next season when Jinny returns,
if she returns...
220
00:14:52,726 --> 00:14:53,685
[Jinny chuckles]
221
00:14:53,685 --> 00:14:57,272
...she may be persuaded to drop in
on your little Assembly Ball.
222
00:15:03,153 --> 00:15:04,154
[Jinny squeals]
223
00:15:05,656 --> 00:15:07,533
[chuckling]
224
00:15:14,623 --> 00:15:16,792
Miss Testvalley, do you know Lord Richard?
225
00:15:18,585 --> 00:15:20,879
[scoffs] Well, Annabel,
as you'll soon see,
226
00:15:21,421 --> 00:15:24,299
England is a very small place.
227
00:15:54,997 --> 00:15:57,124
Lady Hopeleigh wrote yesterday
and asked me to remind--
228
00:15:57,124 --> 00:15:59,501
Lady Hopeleigh has no business
reminding me of anything.
229
00:16:00,085 --> 00:16:03,172
Jean Hopeleigh makes her debut this week
at the Queen's Ball.
230
00:16:03,172 --> 00:16:05,382
And you know her future is in your hands.
231
00:16:05,382 --> 00:16:07,509
Mother, Jean Hopeleigh should know
232
00:16:07,509 --> 00:16:10,304
I'll never marry anyone
who hunts me for the sake of my title.
233
00:16:10,846 --> 00:16:15,350
She has clear skin, Theodore,
open eyes, level shoulders.
234
00:16:15,350 --> 00:16:17,269
And she's not vacuous, as some are.
235
00:16:18,187 --> 00:16:19,479
You know those occasions fill me--
236
00:16:19,479 --> 00:16:22,482
I know you'd have yourself replaced
by a mechanical Duke of Tintagel,
237
00:16:22,482 --> 00:16:23,525
if it were up to you.
238
00:16:25,485 --> 00:16:26,904
The staring I can cope with.
239
00:16:27,613 --> 00:16:29,198
But it's the noise an-and the nonsen--
240
00:16:29,198 --> 00:16:33,160
Just to look, Theodore. For me.
241
00:16:33,827 --> 00:16:35,996
- And a young lady of refinement, please.
- [sighs]
242
00:16:37,831 --> 00:16:39,833
- [bridesmaids cheering]
- ["Tick" playing]
243
00:16:42,586 --> 00:16:44,713
Do come back in. Nan.
244
00:16:45,339 --> 00:16:46,965
Look, an English tree.
245
00:16:46,965 --> 00:16:48,634
An English hedge!
246
00:16:48,634 --> 00:16:50,844
An English sheep in an English field.
247
00:16:50,844 --> 00:16:54,181
- [in British accent] How do you do, sheep?
- [laughing]
248
00:16:55,474 --> 00:16:57,309
- [Mrs. St. George] Nan, please.
- [Nan] Whoo-hoo!
249
00:16:57,309 --> 00:17:00,395
- Jinny, your hair will be impossible.
- [chuckling]
250
00:17:01,939 --> 00:17:02,856
[Mrs. St. George sighs]
251
00:17:02,856 --> 00:17:03,857
[chuckles]
252
00:17:04,816 --> 00:17:06,902
How do you think
Jinny will wear her hair tonight?
253
00:17:07,486 --> 00:17:08,362
On her head.
254
00:17:08,362 --> 00:17:12,532
Yes, perhaps. Though, Lizzy, I'm sure
a lord will spot yours is glossier.
255
00:17:12,532 --> 00:17:16,078
I'm just saying your complexion dazzles
compared to Lizzy's.
256
00:17:16,078 --> 00:17:17,704
Lizzy's my best friend, Mother.
257
00:17:17,704 --> 00:17:20,832
We'll be sure of a grand welcome
from Lord and Lady "Brightlingsey."
258
00:17:20,832 --> 00:17:22,209
It's "Brittlesey," Mother.
259
00:17:22,209 --> 00:17:23,961
I've told you a hundred times.
260
00:17:23,961 --> 00:17:26,003
"Brittlesey." That's how you pronounce it.
261
00:17:26,003 --> 00:17:28,298
That's me. I can't get it in my head.
262
00:17:28,298 --> 00:17:31,176
I'm sure Lord Richard's parents
will be quite charming.
263
00:17:32,219 --> 00:17:33,846
You worked for them, Miss Testvalley.
Are they?
264
00:17:33,846 --> 00:17:35,013
Charming?
265
00:17:36,014 --> 00:17:37,933
Yes. Yes...
266
00:17:39,977 --> 00:17:41,061
in their own way.
267
00:17:41,061 --> 00:17:44,064
[Lady Brightlingsea] There's a whole
ghastly, spitting crew of them.
268
00:17:44,064 --> 00:17:46,692
Only Virginia and Elizabeth,
the two eldest, are debutantes.
269
00:17:46,692 --> 00:17:49,194
Yet they insist on coming mob-handed.
270
00:17:49,903 --> 00:17:52,197
James, you do know as the second son,
271
00:17:52,197 --> 00:17:54,741
you must either make a fortune
or marry one.
272
00:17:55,242 --> 00:17:58,996
They're all new money, yes.
And I'm quite sure they'll be frightful,
273
00:17:58,996 --> 00:18:01,874
but if New York's rejects must be
our mended roofs,
274
00:18:01,874 --> 00:18:03,917
then we may have to suffer invasion.
275
00:18:04,585 --> 00:18:06,170
But at least we shall be dry.
276
00:18:06,170 --> 00:18:08,380
So I am to be sold to the highest bidder?
277
00:18:10,048 --> 00:18:11,258
And do I have a choice?
278
00:18:11,967 --> 00:18:14,636
Yes, of course you do.
There are two of them.
279
00:18:24,062 --> 00:18:25,939
Will he be lost without me, Nan?
280
00:18:27,900 --> 00:18:30,986
Father? Of course.
281
00:18:31,904 --> 00:18:33,655
And I hope
you might be taller without him.
282
00:18:36,909 --> 00:18:39,411
I hope you girls will always be tall.
283
00:18:39,995 --> 00:18:41,914
Us? Oh, we're giants.
284
00:18:41,914 --> 00:18:43,999
- Look at Jinny, she's a skyscraper.
- [Jinny] Whoo-hoo-hoo!
285
00:18:43,999 --> 00:18:46,543
- [Lizzy, Mabel cheering]
- [Jinny] Mabel!
286
00:18:46,543 --> 00:18:47,461
[Mabel] I can see you!
287
00:18:47,461 --> 00:18:49,463
And we could all be skyscrapers together.
288
00:18:54,635 --> 00:18:58,722
[chuckles] I wonder
if Conchita's burst yet with happiness.
289
00:19:00,432 --> 00:19:01,266
[chuckles]
290
00:19:23,747 --> 00:19:24,790
[Conchita] Girls!
291
00:19:25,958 --> 00:19:27,668
Girls, hi! [chuckles]
292
00:19:28,252 --> 00:19:29,253
Girls!
293
00:19:29,253 --> 00:19:30,629
- [cheers]
- Conchie!
294
00:19:30,629 --> 00:19:34,216
- Nan! [chuckling]
- [cheers, chuckles] Oh, look at you.
295
00:19:34,216 --> 00:19:35,926
[Nan] You're just-- You're just perfect.
296
00:19:36,635 --> 00:19:38,053
Goodness.
297
00:19:38,053 --> 00:19:39,179
Girls, girls, girls.
298
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:41,139
[all chuckling, clamoring]
299
00:19:43,433 --> 00:19:46,854
[Lady Brightlingsea]
They're never still. Not one of them.
300
00:19:47,437 --> 00:19:50,482
They toss about so.
301
00:19:50,482 --> 00:19:53,777
[Lord Brightlingsea] Well, watch out
as they're tossing in our direction.
302
00:19:54,361 --> 00:19:56,530
Before we know it, there won't be
a family left in England
303
00:19:56,530 --> 00:19:58,740
without American poison in its veins.
304
00:19:58,740 --> 00:20:01,243
But without them,
how shall we afford poison...
305
00:20:01,243 --> 00:20:03,704
- [bridesmaids chuckling, clamoring]
- ...or veins?
306
00:20:05,873 --> 00:20:06,874
Window-shopping?
307
00:20:09,293 --> 00:20:10,836
A casual bystander.
308
00:20:14,047 --> 00:20:15,757
You say they're all as rich as Conchita,
Mama?
309
00:20:15,757 --> 00:20:18,969
[inhales deeply] One of the fathers is
in the American army.
310
00:20:18,969 --> 00:20:21,054
[Lord Brightlingsea]
American army? There isn't any.
311
00:20:21,763 --> 00:20:22,764
They call him "Colonel."
312
00:20:23,682 --> 00:20:27,394
In the United States
they call dentists "Colonel."
313
00:20:27,394 --> 00:20:30,522
[bridesmaids laughing, chattering]
314
00:20:30,522 --> 00:20:34,359
[chuckles] Oh! Oh, girls,
you can't imagine what a toll
315
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,320
pregnancy takes on your dancing.
316
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,822
Let's go inside.
Let me show you the house.
317
00:20:38,822 --> 00:20:41,992
Has our dancing suffered,
do you suppose, since pregnancy?
318
00:20:41,992 --> 00:20:43,869
I'm sure I've had no complaints.
319
00:20:45,579 --> 00:20:49,791
What a blessing, Mrs. Elmsworth,
that Conchita is so heavily with child.
320
00:20:49,791 --> 00:20:51,710
- Blooming, indeed.
- Mmm.
321
00:20:52,461 --> 00:20:55,005
And so very few months since her wedding.
322
00:20:58,300 --> 00:21:01,553
Of course, they pretend the Queen bit
is the start of the season,
323
00:21:01,553 --> 00:21:03,597
but that's just the afternoon appetizer.
324
00:21:03,597 --> 00:21:06,850
The evening's where the fun begins.
The ball.
325
00:21:07,809 --> 00:21:09,895
So I hope you brought your finery
for tomorrow.
326
00:21:09,895 --> 00:21:13,690
Every girl in London is just breathless
for the Debutante's Ball. [chuckling]
327
00:21:13,690 --> 00:21:16,818
They've waited their entire lives
to see a real-life duke,
328
00:21:16,818 --> 00:21:18,904
then parade down stairs for a husband.
329
00:21:18,904 --> 00:21:22,282
They're so proud of how old things are,
they forget that in the modern world
330
00:21:22,282 --> 00:21:23,951
we now have radiators
331
00:21:23,951 --> 00:21:25,661
- and electric lights.
- [Mabel laughs]
332
00:21:26,828 --> 00:21:29,498
Conchie, are you all right?
333
00:21:31,500 --> 00:21:36,213
This place is a pit full of snakes.
Watch you don't get bitten.
334
00:21:40,217 --> 00:21:43,178
- [stomping overhead]
- [bridesmaids clamoring, laughing]
335
00:21:46,139 --> 00:21:50,310
- [footsteps descending]
- [laughter, clamoring continues]
336
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,275
Does everybody feel the butterflies,
do you suppose?
337
00:21:57,234 --> 00:22:00,946
My dear, our husbands only made
their money in trade,
338
00:22:02,197 --> 00:22:04,366
so our butterflies are inferior.
339
00:22:04,366 --> 00:22:05,993
How dare we even exist?
340
00:22:05,993 --> 00:22:10,122
[sighs] Five years of doors in our faces.
341
00:22:11,248 --> 00:22:14,710
I'm surprised our noses
aren't entirely flat with it.
342
00:22:15,377 --> 00:22:17,254
[sighs deeply]
343
00:22:21,550 --> 00:22:25,345
Get used to an ocean of silence,
and swim about in it as well as you can.
344
00:22:25,345 --> 00:22:26,889
I haven't drowned yet.
345
00:22:26,889 --> 00:22:28,807
[heavy stomping]
346
00:22:30,475 --> 00:22:31,977
[spoons scraping]
347
00:22:34,354 --> 00:22:35,397
[slurping]
348
00:22:51,747 --> 00:22:52,789
[chuckles]
349
00:22:53,832 --> 00:22:55,083
Isn't the soup heaven?
350
00:22:58,045 --> 00:23:01,507
It's so red. [chuckles] And warm.
351
00:23:02,674 --> 00:23:05,177
- Isn't it warm, Mrs. Elmsworth?
- Oh, it's warm soup, all right.
352
00:23:05,177 --> 00:23:07,179
Mmm. Well, if I've learned anything
about the English,
353
00:23:07,179 --> 00:23:08,472
they sure know how to heat soup.
354
00:23:09,973 --> 00:23:13,936
But not too warm. That's the relief
of it, Lady "Brightlingsea."
355
00:23:13,936 --> 00:23:16,730
- Brightlingsea.
-"Brittlesey". Lady B-Brightlingsea.
356
00:23:22,903 --> 00:23:24,738
We've missed you in New York,
Lord Richard.
357
00:23:24,738 --> 00:23:27,449
[Conchita]
Oh, he's been far too busy to miss you.
358
00:23:27,449 --> 00:23:31,537
England's just bursting with activity
and possibility for men.
359
00:23:31,537 --> 00:23:34,790
And what's wonderful for us girls
is that we get to sit home
360
00:23:34,790 --> 00:23:37,209
and wait for them to come back.
361
00:23:37,209 --> 00:23:41,964
What is it tomorrow, Richard?
Riding, shooting... [gasps] ...cards?
362
00:23:42,548 --> 00:23:44,591
[Mrs. Elmsworth]
Not all at once, I hope. [chuckles]
363
00:23:44,591 --> 00:23:46,718
- [Conchita chuckles]
- That wouldn't be--
364
00:23:46,718 --> 00:23:49,847
- On a horse. [laughing]
- [chuckles]
365
00:23:50,430 --> 00:23:51,431
[laughing stops]
366
00:23:53,016 --> 00:23:55,727
[stammers] Uh, o-on a horse.
367
00:23:58,772 --> 00:24:01,525
I like your pictures, Lord Seadown.
368
00:24:02,401 --> 00:24:03,944
[Conchita] Do you like all of them?
369
00:24:06,071 --> 00:24:07,030
Mmm.
370
00:24:08,782 --> 00:24:10,158
[Lizzy] Oh, well, I--
371
00:24:11,994 --> 00:24:14,746
I-- I-- I like a lot of them.
372
00:24:15,581 --> 00:24:17,416
[Mrs. Elmsworth]
Worth a flat-out fortune, I bet.
373
00:24:17,416 --> 00:24:19,501
How lucky they haven't had to be sold.
374
00:24:19,501 --> 00:24:22,462
Richard has a knack for picking up things
that are worth money.
375
00:24:26,884 --> 00:24:28,385
Is that Lady Jane Grey?
376
00:24:29,052 --> 00:24:31,138
- La-- Where?
- Yet there are so few portraits of her.
377
00:24:31,138 --> 00:24:32,639
I thought that could be a George Gower.
378
00:24:32,639 --> 00:24:34,474
But if that's Lady Jane Grey,
then that's--
379
00:24:34,474 --> 00:24:37,269
That would be too early for Gower,
wouldn't it?
380
00:24:37,269 --> 00:24:39,605
You know, I always thought
that being a queen for nine days
381
00:24:39,605 --> 00:24:42,774
was a very short time, but that was
before I crossed the Atlantic.
382
00:24:42,774 --> 00:24:44,860
- [chuckles]
- [Richard chuckles]
383
00:24:45,861 --> 00:24:46,987
[Seadown] That's very good.
384
00:24:50,532 --> 00:24:52,743
What do you think of the portrait,
Miss St. George?
385
00:24:52,743 --> 00:24:53,827
[swallows]
386
00:24:54,828 --> 00:24:57,623
O-Oh, I like her arms.
387
00:25:10,385 --> 00:25:14,014
[bridesmaids, Conchita laughing]
388
00:25:21,271 --> 00:25:24,274
[laughing continues]
389
00:25:24,942 --> 00:25:26,818
Is it really only half past 10:00?
390
00:25:26,818 --> 00:25:30,447
[grunts] It's not the clocks
that are slow, it's this place.
391
00:25:31,323 --> 00:25:35,160
Oh, girls, I've been
so starved of beauty and chatter.
392
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,539
Seadown wasn't starved tonight. [chuckles]
393
00:25:39,331 --> 00:25:42,459
Perhaps at the ball tomorrow,
you could try not to attract attention.
394
00:25:42,459 --> 00:25:44,503
Oh, yes. Yes, of course.
395
00:25:44,503 --> 00:25:47,673
I can make some space
for your expert art observations.
396
00:25:47,673 --> 00:25:49,466
"I like her arms."
397
00:25:49,466 --> 00:25:51,885
- I will make sure.
- [chuckling]
398
00:25:51,885 --> 00:25:53,804
Stop. [chuckles]
399
00:25:53,804 --> 00:25:55,889
Oh-- Do you even clean your nails?
Look at that.
400
00:25:55,889 --> 00:25:59,643
Oh, wait. Tomorrow, I must show you
the dress that I'm wearing.
401
00:25:59,643 --> 00:26:02,437
- [laughing]
- I'm gonna-- [laughs] Stop.
402
00:26:02,437 --> 00:26:03,689
I'm going.
403
00:26:03,689 --> 00:26:06,733
- It's gonna be worth it.
- [bridesmaids laughing]
404
00:26:13,282 --> 00:26:17,953
Oh, chin up, darling.
You are still the pretty one.
405
00:26:17,953 --> 00:26:20,205
And one day, I'll be
the used-to-be-pretty one.
406
00:26:22,374 --> 00:26:23,375
[bridesmaids giggling]
407
00:26:23,375 --> 00:26:25,544
What on Earth are you all doing in there?
408
00:26:25,544 --> 00:26:27,004
Being human.
409
00:26:29,214 --> 00:26:31,800
- This isn't New York, Conchita.
- Oh, I'm aware. [scoffs]
410
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,594
Whatever happened to "being the party"?
411
00:26:33,594 --> 00:26:36,096
Well, now you're Lady Marable,
so it's time to be the wife.
412
00:26:37,097 --> 00:26:41,143
It's not how anybody here behaves.
I did ask you to behave.
413
00:26:41,143 --> 00:26:43,604
- [Conchita] Perhaps you should get a dog.
- You chose to come here.
414
00:26:43,604 --> 00:26:45,606
I chose you. I love you.
415
00:26:45,606 --> 00:26:47,191
[Richard] And I love you.
416
00:26:47,191 --> 00:26:50,152
But the glaring and the jibes,
everyone on both sides.
417
00:26:50,861 --> 00:26:51,862
It's a battlefield.
418
00:26:54,531 --> 00:26:56,158
I'll, uh-- I'll be back next week.
419
00:26:56,742 --> 00:26:59,286
You're leaving?
With your wife in this state?
420
00:27:00,245 --> 00:27:02,122
Well, you have weeks yet.
421
00:27:03,707 --> 00:27:05,209
And what about the ball?
422
00:27:06,919 --> 00:27:09,796
I'm sorry.
I need to not be here for a while.
423
00:27:09,796 --> 00:27:12,424
[groans] Well, without you,
they won't let me go.
424
00:27:12,424 --> 00:27:14,801
- [Richard] Conchita, I'm sorry.
- So I won't go. Perfect.
425
00:27:14,801 --> 00:27:16,803
- Conchie, are you all right?
- No, I'm not all right.
426
00:27:16,803 --> 00:27:18,096
I'm not gonna go to the ball.
427
00:27:18,096 --> 00:27:21,350
If I want to be ignored
and disapproved of, I can just stay home.
428
00:27:21,350 --> 00:27:22,476
[Richard sighs]
429
00:27:25,020 --> 00:27:26,480
[clicks tongue] I said it, didn't I?
430
00:27:27,981 --> 00:27:29,483
She might not fit in in England.
431
00:27:29,483 --> 00:27:33,278
- But you also said you get drunk on her.
- Yes, and being drunk is great fun.
432
00:27:33,904 --> 00:27:35,906
Of course it is, but not every day.
433
00:27:35,906 --> 00:27:39,826
Not morning till night.
Not with my parents watching.
434
00:27:49,628 --> 00:27:50,629
[scoffs]
435
00:27:53,549 --> 00:27:54,842
[sighs]
436
00:28:02,391 --> 00:28:04,935
[parent] One expects it all gets easier
after the funeral.
437
00:28:05,435 --> 00:28:06,728
It doesn't, of course.
438
00:28:07,563 --> 00:28:11,984
So... [sighs] ...tomorrow,
the Debutante's Ball?
439
00:28:11,984 --> 00:28:13,068
Yes.
440
00:28:15,571 --> 00:28:16,822
What else is to be done?
441
00:28:28,375 --> 00:28:33,130
Your mother was the most beautiful woman
I ever saw.
442
00:28:35,174 --> 00:28:36,592
Utterly unpaintable.
443
00:28:49,271 --> 00:28:51,732
"As low as possible,"
Miss Testvalley said.
444
00:28:51,732 --> 00:28:53,692
And then the Queen extends her hand--
445
00:28:53,692 --> 00:28:56,153
- And you lick it. [laughs]
- [chuckles]
446
00:28:56,153 --> 00:28:58,780
Do you think the Queen will notice
if a curl comes out?
447
00:28:58,780 --> 00:29:00,324
Mother will notice.
448
00:29:00,324 --> 00:29:03,619
Yes, she will. And remember,
chin up, eyes down.
449
00:29:03,619 --> 00:29:05,913
Speak to every man there,
but only use short words
450
00:29:05,913 --> 00:29:07,581
- because we don't want to confuse anyone.
- [door opens]
451
00:29:07,581 --> 00:29:10,667
- [chuckles]
- Don't ask. The bird came off worse.
452
00:29:10,667 --> 00:29:12,002
[chuckles, gasps]
453
00:29:12,002 --> 00:29:15,589
Oh, Jinny. Wait till London sees you.
454
00:29:16,798 --> 00:29:20,761
[sighs] Girls, you must promise
to dance till you're dizzy.
455
00:29:20,761 --> 00:29:21,845
Dance? Have you seen my shoes?
456
00:29:21,845 --> 00:29:23,096
- I can't walk.
- I can do it.
457
00:29:23,096 --> 00:29:25,682
Dance till you're dizzy. Do you hear me?
458
00:29:25,682 --> 00:29:27,476
- Come on, Nan! Come on!
- [chuckles]
459
00:29:27,476 --> 00:29:30,103
- Jinny, come on. [chuckles]
- [giggling]
460
00:29:30,103 --> 00:29:33,315
Come on, girls. This isn't playtime.
Please. Carriages are on their way.
461
00:29:33,315 --> 00:29:34,691
Jinny, this is your moment.
462
00:29:34,691 --> 00:29:36,985
You'll only get one,
so let's take it seriously.
463
00:29:37,569 --> 00:29:39,112
- Come, come, come.
- Conchie...
464
00:29:41,740 --> 00:29:43,659
- [inhales deeply]
- ...are you all right?
465
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,205
[sighs] Oh, I didn't love him
because he was a lord, darling, did I?
466
00:29:49,206 --> 00:29:52,626
[sobs] And now,
it's like he's not even a man.
467
00:29:53,210 --> 00:29:54,545
We boarded that ship equals,
468
00:29:54,545 --> 00:29:57,005
and it's like every inch
he got closer to home,
469
00:29:57,005 --> 00:29:58,966
he just got further away from me.
470
00:30:00,843 --> 00:30:04,346
[breathes shakily] Oh, God,
I'm so happy that you're here.
471
00:30:06,223 --> 00:30:08,141
[breathes shakily]
472
00:30:08,141 --> 00:30:09,226
Listen, Nan...
473
00:30:10,227 --> 00:30:13,397
[breathes shakily]
...when this baby comes, will you...
474
00:30:13,981 --> 00:30:15,566
I will be here.
475
00:30:15,566 --> 00:30:17,276
- Yeah.
- I will be here. Of course, I will.
476
00:30:17,276 --> 00:30:18,694
- Good.
- Yeah.
477
00:30:18,694 --> 00:30:22,155
- 'Cause it's-- it's an actual baby.
- [chuckling] Yes.
478
00:30:22,155 --> 00:30:25,701
How do you even... [chuckles]
479
00:30:26,785 --> 00:30:30,289
And it's gonna look like me.
You know, lucky baby.
480
00:30:30,289 --> 00:30:32,207
That's virtually
the whole point of babies,
481
00:30:32,207 --> 00:30:34,376
but it's-- it's not gonna look like them.
482
00:30:36,086 --> 00:30:40,257
What if they look at my baby
the same way they look at me?
483
00:30:42,050 --> 00:30:43,343
[sighs]
484
00:30:43,927 --> 00:30:47,556
Well, I will be here. I promise you that.
485
00:30:48,473 --> 00:30:50,976
- Really?
- Yes, of course.
486
00:30:50,976 --> 00:30:52,269
[chuckles]
487
00:30:52,269 --> 00:30:54,688
Oh, Nan. [chuckles]
488
00:30:54,688 --> 00:30:56,690
["Nothing New" playing]
489
00:30:56,690 --> 00:30:59,193
[debutantes whispering, sighing]
490
00:31:30,641 --> 00:31:34,186
[Nan] So the girls just have to walk
down the stairs,
491
00:31:34,186 --> 00:31:35,729
and then the men all get to pick one?
492
00:31:37,064 --> 00:31:39,191
I wish Conchita was here.
493
00:31:39,191 --> 00:31:41,109
That cake. [gasps]
494
00:31:41,818 --> 00:31:43,904
I'd go and look at it,
but I can barely walk.
495
00:31:51,870 --> 00:31:53,747
My shoes are really bothering me.
496
00:31:55,249 --> 00:31:57,251
- [party guests whispering, clamoring]
- Why's everyone--
497
00:32:00,128 --> 00:32:02,840
- Who is he?
- Ah, the guest of honor,
498
00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:04,174
the Duke of Tintagel.
499
00:32:04,967 --> 00:32:06,385
- [Mrs. Elmsworth] Duke?
- [Mrs. St. George] No.
500
00:32:06,385 --> 00:32:08,303
[Miss Testvalley]
The greatest match in England.
501
00:32:12,850 --> 00:32:13,934
[bells ring]
502
00:32:13,934 --> 00:32:15,477
Oh, Nan.
503
00:32:27,573 --> 00:32:29,700
That's it, girls.
Look at where you're going.
504
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,928
Though I hear the duke's mother
has made her choice for him already.
505
00:32:49,928 --> 00:32:52,973
There, look. Jean Hopeleigh.
506
00:32:53,515 --> 00:32:55,309
And the duke is the perfect son.
507
00:33:01,690 --> 00:33:03,150
Oh, there they are.
508
00:33:09,615 --> 00:33:11,617
Head up, Jinny. Shoulders back.
509
00:33:12,326 --> 00:33:15,495
[guests murmuring]
510
00:33:26,006 --> 00:33:27,591
Fourteen on form.
511
00:33:29,176 --> 00:33:31,303
[guests murmuring, laughing]
512
00:33:42,564 --> 00:33:43,941
Nan?
513
00:33:45,067 --> 00:33:47,027
[guest] Americans, they say.
514
00:33:47,611 --> 00:33:49,530
- Outspoken, then, and vulgar.
- [guest] Mmm.
515
00:33:49,530 --> 00:33:51,406
Imagine the bucketloads of cash.
516
00:33:51,406 --> 00:33:54,117
Imagine them on their backs
with their legs spread.
517
00:33:55,827 --> 00:33:59,164
Or imagine them as human beings
with no interest at all in your opinion
518
00:33:59,164 --> 00:34:02,042
and not caring if you're a king
or a mister.
519
00:34:07,965 --> 00:34:09,466
- [breathes heavily]
- [bachelor] Nan St. George.
520
00:34:14,054 --> 00:34:16,723
Window, earring, staircase.
521
00:34:17,266 --> 00:34:19,309
Sorry, I'm-- I'm just blurting out words.
522
00:34:19,893 --> 00:34:21,061
- You. [sighs]
- Mm-hmm.
523
00:34:22,603 --> 00:34:24,438
So, have you had enough?
524
00:34:25,732 --> 00:34:26,942
They're like cattle.
525
00:34:27,943 --> 00:34:31,362
That's rather harsh. [chuckles]
I think they're all lovely.
526
00:34:31,362 --> 00:34:32,697
Yes, they are lovely as anything,
527
00:34:32,697 --> 00:34:34,867
but they're also human beings
who are funny and smart.
528
00:34:36,326 --> 00:34:37,327
[chuckles]
529
00:34:41,123 --> 00:34:42,416
How is your mother?
530
00:34:48,547 --> 00:34:49,547
I'm so sorry.
531
00:34:53,927 --> 00:34:54,928
Shall we?
532
00:34:55,804 --> 00:34:56,847
Absolutely.
533
00:35:10,777 --> 00:35:11,778
Shall we?
534
00:35:13,697 --> 00:35:16,116
[dance music playing]
535
00:35:38,388 --> 00:35:41,308
I can't decide if I wanna eat it
or if I wanna hide in it.
536
00:35:42,017 --> 00:35:42,851
[bachelor chuckles]
537
00:35:43,894 --> 00:35:46,772
Well, it's a long night.
I'm sure we can make time for both.
538
00:35:46,772 --> 00:35:49,608
[both chuckle]
539
00:35:53,737 --> 00:35:54,738
Do you miss her?
540
00:35:58,450 --> 00:35:59,701
It's almost more than that.
541
00:36:01,995 --> 00:36:03,747
Mothers are irreplaceable.
542
00:36:05,749 --> 00:36:07,543
I miss the world that had her in it.
543
00:36:09,378 --> 00:36:12,172
Well, actually, I-- I also miss my father,
544
00:36:13,924 --> 00:36:15,467
even when I'm in a room with him.
545
00:36:27,604 --> 00:36:28,647
[both gasp]
546
00:36:29,398 --> 00:36:30,899
[guests gasp, clamoring]
547
00:36:30,899 --> 00:36:33,151
[guest 1] What on earth? What was that?
548
00:36:34,278 --> 00:36:35,988
[guest 2 scoffs] Just keep dancing.
549
00:36:42,327 --> 00:36:44,538
[whispers] This is really bad, isn't it?
550
00:36:44,538 --> 00:36:46,456
Oh, this is as bad as it gets.
551
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:49,042
[both laughing]
552
00:37:10,314 --> 00:37:12,399
[chuckles] You should absolutely
never be allowed up high.
553
00:37:12,399 --> 00:37:15,360
- Earrings, shoes... [chuckles]
- The earring wasn't my fault.
554
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,237
In future,
if you so much as stand on a chair--
555
00:37:17,237 --> 00:37:19,531
What? What will you do?
556
00:37:20,866 --> 00:37:25,370
Stop you, I suppose, in some way.
557
00:37:26,997 --> 00:37:28,040
[Mrs. St. George] Annabel!
558
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:30,542
I told you. She's not even
supposed to be interested.
559
00:37:33,337 --> 00:37:35,255
You were the same at dinner last night.
560
00:37:35,255 --> 00:37:37,549
How am I supposed to get people
to notice me with her?
561
00:37:37,549 --> 00:37:39,468
You're doing a good job
of people noticing you now.
562
00:37:39,468 --> 00:37:42,221
But I am trying so hard...
[stammers] ...and I'm so tired,
563
00:37:42,221 --> 00:37:43,514
and this dress is so tight.
564
00:37:43,514 --> 00:37:45,724
And actually, Nan doesn't even
like any of this,
565
00:37:45,724 --> 00:37:48,435
the lords and the titles and so on.
She thinks it's all silly.
566
00:37:48,435 --> 00:37:50,479
True. It's stupid.
Who wants to be a part of this--
567
00:37:50,479 --> 00:37:53,815
I do. I like it. I wanted to meet someone.
568
00:37:53,815 --> 00:37:56,151
And we've come all this way,
and you're causing a commotion,
569
00:37:56,151 --> 00:37:58,362
as always, and everything's ruined.
570
00:37:58,362 --> 00:38:00,948
I'm sure your sister is trying
as hard as you.
571
00:38:00,948 --> 00:38:02,866
She dropped a shoe in a cake.
572
00:38:03,534 --> 00:38:06,411
Why do you always take her side
and stick up for her?
573
00:38:06,912 --> 00:38:08,205
Do you even know why?
574
00:38:09,248 --> 00:38:10,666
Where is your pride?
575
00:38:15,045 --> 00:38:16,713
My pride, Virginia?
576
00:38:18,298 --> 00:38:19,424
Why, it's here.
577
00:38:20,217 --> 00:38:21,468
Right here.
578
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:26,431
It's in Nan, and it's in you. My girls.
579
00:38:34,356 --> 00:38:35,399
I'm sorry.
580
00:38:37,359 --> 00:38:39,945
- You don't get it, Nan. You don't get it.
- [Nan] What?
581
00:38:39,945 --> 00:38:43,031
It's no different from New York. Here,
they just hate us for a different reason.
582
00:38:43,031 --> 00:38:45,534
- And it's my job to be noticed.
- But you were noticed.
583
00:38:45,534 --> 00:38:48,161
- Everyone in there was saying--
- I made the tiniest bit of progress.
584
00:38:48,161 --> 00:38:50,080
Meanwhile, you're being fascinating
all over the place,
585
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,749
thinking of something funny
or smart to say,
586
00:38:52,749 --> 00:38:54,626
or having men lick cake from your fingers.
587
00:38:54,626 --> 00:38:57,754
- It wasn't men, it was one man.
- This isn't a joke, Nan.
588
00:38:57,754 --> 00:39:00,549
This is my whole life. It matters.
589
00:39:00,549 --> 00:39:03,760
Mother is forever standing up for you
and putting you ahead of me.
590
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,221
When I say that I'm doing a good job,
she says, "Well, so is Nan."
591
00:39:06,221 --> 00:39:07,764
And, you know, it shouldn't be about you.
592
00:39:07,764 --> 00:39:10,684
It shouldn't ever be about you,
'cause you're not her daughter, Nan.
593
00:39:12,686 --> 00:39:13,770
What?
594
00:39:17,191 --> 00:39:18,275
I shouldn't have said that.
595
00:39:18,275 --> 00:39:20,777
Said what? What did you--
What did you just say?
596
00:39:20,777 --> 00:39:22,112
- No, Nan.
- What did you just say?
597
00:39:22,112 --> 00:39:23,864
It's not my fault they kept it a secret.
598
00:39:23,864 --> 00:39:26,366
I was only a little girl.
599
00:39:26,366 --> 00:39:28,744
- You know what Daddy's like. It was--
- Kept what secret?
600
00:39:30,954 --> 00:39:33,749
One of Daddy's dalliances had...
601
00:39:35,876 --> 00:39:38,003
Mother wanted to avoid a scandal.
602
00:39:39,171 --> 00:39:40,756
Nobody knew, and nobody knows.
603
00:39:41,381 --> 00:39:43,800
Nan, I really shouldn't have
told you that. I'm sorry.
604
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:45,761
Please don't tell Mother that I told you.
605
00:39:46,428 --> 00:39:49,181
- Please, Nan.
- There you both are.
606
00:39:50,390 --> 00:39:53,185
Now, Annabel, we have come all this way,
607
00:39:53,185 --> 00:39:55,812
and it does seem
that you are something of a distraction.
608
00:39:56,313 --> 00:39:59,608
So Miss Testvalley has kindly offered
that, tomorrow at first light,
609
00:39:59,608 --> 00:40:03,153
- just for a week or two-- [stammers]
- Some early nights, Nan.
610
00:40:03,153 --> 00:40:07,533
The castles we've talked of.
The fresh sea air in Cornwall.
611
00:40:48,240 --> 00:40:49,241
[sighs]
612
00:41:04,673 --> 00:41:05,674
[breathing heavily]
613
00:41:26,111 --> 00:41:27,112
[sighs]
614
00:41:37,164 --> 00:41:40,584
Lady Hopeleigh says
Jean waited for you at the ball.
615
00:41:40,584 --> 00:41:42,336
She's free to wait.
616
00:41:44,087 --> 00:41:46,089
And what are you free to do, Theo?
617
00:41:46,965 --> 00:41:48,383
To be left alone, Mother,
618
00:41:49,801 --> 00:41:51,595
till I meet a girl who doesn't know
what a duke is.
619
00:41:52,471 --> 00:41:55,224
I can't think where one
would find such a being.
620
00:41:56,099 --> 00:41:58,560
I'm sick of being tracked
like a wild animal.
621
00:42:32,803 --> 00:42:34,471
I think I'll stretch my legs.
622
00:43:04,334 --> 00:43:05,335
Nan?
623
00:43:06,587 --> 00:43:07,588
Nan!
624
00:43:07,588 --> 00:43:10,257
[breathing heavily, groaning]
625
00:43:33,822 --> 00:43:35,115
Did you talk to the bank?
626
00:43:35,115 --> 00:43:36,408
It's worse than I thought.
627
00:43:37,951 --> 00:43:39,786
How did it go with the American girl?
628
00:43:40,287 --> 00:43:42,372
Yes, I saw her... [sighs]
629
00:43:43,624 --> 00:43:45,209
...and I believe it's all going to plan.
630
00:43:45,209 --> 00:43:47,878
Then you'll be needing this.
631
00:43:49,796 --> 00:43:50,797
Your mother's.
632
00:44:10,108 --> 00:44:13,403
- [screaming]
- Oh, for heaven's sake,
633
00:44:13,403 --> 00:44:16,323
English women have been
getting on with the job for generations
634
00:44:16,323 --> 00:44:18,825
with no need for any silly fuss.
635
00:44:18,825 --> 00:44:20,953
[screaming continues]
636
00:44:20,953 --> 00:44:22,996
- Baby's coming. Baby's coming.
- Okay, okay.
637
00:44:22,996 --> 00:44:27,000
- Big push. Good girl.
- [screaming]
638
00:44:29,253 --> 00:44:31,255
[scream echoing]
639
00:45:33,442 --> 00:45:34,985
I didn't know anyone was...
640
00:45:35,819 --> 00:45:37,154
I startled you, I--
641
00:45:37,863 --> 00:45:40,240
If I'd known there was somebody else, I...
642
00:45:45,913 --> 00:45:47,497
I'm-- I'm sorry.
643
00:45:47,497 --> 00:45:48,582
[Nan] That's okay.
644
00:45:49,458 --> 00:45:51,126
Uh, not mine, I see.
645
00:45:51,126 --> 00:45:54,922
[laughs] No. They would be, um--
646
00:45:55,797 --> 00:45:57,674
- They would be rather, um...
- Restrictive?
647
00:45:57,674 --> 00:45:58,967
- Yes.
- Yes.
648
00:46:00,677 --> 00:46:01,678
Um...
649
00:46:03,388 --> 00:46:04,556
You're an artist?
650
00:46:06,391 --> 00:46:09,394
- [stammers] I paint.
- Oh. Really?
651
00:46:10,437 --> 00:46:11,438
I was just...
652
00:46:13,607 --> 00:46:15,150
I was just, uh, looking at the light.
653
00:46:16,485 --> 00:46:17,778
Isn't it just, uh...
654
00:46:20,322 --> 00:46:22,741
I can't think of a better place to paint,
655
00:46:22,741 --> 00:46:25,285
though I've barely held a brush
in my life. [chuckles]
656
00:46:25,285 --> 00:46:27,454
Well, the beach makes artists of us all.
657
00:46:27,454 --> 00:46:30,374
Oh, yeah. Well, not just the beach.
I mean, the cliffs.
658
00:46:30,999 --> 00:46:33,585
Oh, and the castle.
Have you seen the castle up close?
659
00:46:35,045 --> 00:46:36,922
- [chuckles]
- It's extraordinary.
660
00:46:38,924 --> 00:46:40,050
So I believe.
661
00:46:50,102 --> 00:46:51,436
[chuckles]
662
00:46:51,436 --> 00:46:52,729
- Anyway, I--
- Anyway--
663
00:46:52,729 --> 00:46:54,690
[chuckles] I should...
664
00:46:54,690 --> 00:46:55,774
Yes.
665
00:46:59,695 --> 00:47:00,821
I'm Nan.
666
00:47:02,197 --> 00:47:03,198
Theo.
667
00:47:03,740 --> 00:47:05,701
- Theo?
- Theo. [chuckles]
668
00:47:09,830 --> 00:47:11,164
May I?
669
00:47:11,164 --> 00:47:13,834
Uh-- Oh, God. [stammers]
It's just a mistake.
670
00:47:13,834 --> 00:47:15,127
It's a, um--
671
00:47:16,336 --> 00:47:17,462
- Well, I--
- It's a bird.
672
00:47:19,506 --> 00:47:20,841
- Well, it--
- It's beautiful.
673
00:47:20,841 --> 00:47:23,302
[chuckles] Well, it-- it looks like a...
674
00:47:25,304 --> 00:47:27,431
- frog or something. [chuckles]
- No. [chuckles]
675
00:47:27,431 --> 00:47:30,058
It's hopeless, so I've started again...
676
00:47:32,102 --> 00:47:33,687
kind of. [chuckles]
677
00:47:33,687 --> 00:47:34,855
[laughs]
678
00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:38,108
Well, imagine what it might become.
679
00:47:43,864 --> 00:47:47,659
Uh, I'm sorry. It's, um, rare, I believe,
680
00:47:47,659 --> 00:47:50,871
to be able to talk so freely with a--
with a person you know so little.
681
00:47:52,581 --> 00:47:54,625
Do you think so?
I think it's easier somehow.
682
00:47:58,754 --> 00:47:59,755
[chuckles]
683
00:48:01,089 --> 00:48:02,341
P-Perhaps we might--
684
00:48:02,341 --> 00:48:05,427
[stammers] I'm often down here,
um, to paint or-- or swim.
685
00:48:05,427 --> 00:48:07,679
No, I'm afraid we're going home
to New York.
686
00:48:10,265 --> 00:48:12,392
Well... [stammers] ...that's a great shame.
687
00:48:14,686 --> 00:48:17,940
Good luck with your frog-birds?
688
00:48:17,940 --> 00:48:19,983
[chuckles] Thank you.
689
00:48:19,983 --> 00:48:22,069
[both chuckle]
690
00:48:22,069 --> 00:48:23,820
Goodbye.
691
00:48:23,820 --> 00:48:25,197
- Goodbye.
- [chuckles]
692
00:48:25,197 --> 00:48:27,282
