00:00No!
00:30Good to see you, Wilbur.
01:00Welcome to Marenzi, Mr. Russell.
01:06I hope you're ready for all of this.
01:09Have you brought your riding clothes?
01:11Of course.
01:12I'm looking forward to seeing you on a bucking bronco.
01:30All right, one bite.
01:43Back to work, back to work.
01:45Mr. Church?
01:47Yes.
01:49Has there ever been snow this close to spring?
01:53I agree.
01:54I was expecting cherry blossom, not this.
01:56What's all the activity?
01:58The mistress has planned a temperance meeting, but I can't imagine there will be many guests in this weather.
02:03Mrs. Van Ryn is a temperance activist?
02:06Not quite.
02:07I was referring to Mrs. Forte.
02:09But you said mistress.
02:11Yes.
02:12We've had some changes.
02:20Oh!
02:21I'm sorry, ma'am.
02:22I should have lit the fire earlier.
02:23Well, it's supposed to be the start of spring.
02:26It won't last long.
02:28Well, you're all dressed up.
02:30Our temperance meeting is today.
02:32Must we keep allowing the frozen tundra wind into my home, if I can still call it that?
02:38We need to set up.
02:40You can't mean to sponsor this absurd meeting now.
02:43It's nearly a blizzard.
02:45Surely our merry band of teetotalers will stay home.
02:49I doubt it.
02:51Temperance is a cause to which we are all committed.
02:54To which we are all committed now.
02:56But weren't you committed to the Charity Organization Society?
03:00Well, yes, I was.
03:01Before that, hadn't someone cornered you about the settlement house movement?
03:06That's true.
03:07But I've been convinced that temperance can bring unique improvements to our society.
03:13So make a donation from your newfound fortune and cancel this gathering.
03:17They will understand.
03:18I am making a donation in addition to holding the meeting here.
03:23Alcohol is the scourge of many families.
03:27And I want to support causes that are close to my heart as a way to honor Luke's memory.
03:32You think invoking your late husband's name will silence me? It won't.
03:36Luke drank wine and he served it to thousands at communion, just like Jesus.
03:42Find a cause he would have cared about.
03:44The point is, Luke's ministry was important to him.
03:49And I want to continue his legacy by doing works that are important to me.
03:54And if it displeases you, Agnes, then...
03:57Then what?
03:58Then too bad.
04:00I've tried mourning in silence and it nearly killed me.
04:05There were nights I went to bed and prayed not to wake up.
04:11This gives me a purpose.
04:16And I believe it would make Luke proud.
04:19Had he cared about money, we'd have lived a very different life.
04:23But he cared about people.
04:26And I will too.
04:40I wish you wouldn't do this.
04:42Are the trains across the bridge even running? There are no cabs.
04:45I must get back to 61st Street.
04:47I've promised Mrs. Forte I'd help her with the temperance meeting.
04:50Your mother shouldn't have kept you last night.
04:52You'd already be there, safe and dry, if she had.
04:55They'll catch a death walking to the station.
04:57You don't think that's a little pessimistic?
04:59I'm going with her, Dorothy.
05:02Well done on the news.
05:05I knew it was big when I saw the envelope.
05:07Have you told Mrs. Van Rye?
05:08How?
05:09When I only opened it last night.
05:11It's horrified.
05:13You be safe.
05:15Mm-hmm.
05:16I want fires in every room down here.
05:19And in all the passengers.
05:20They are not to be allowed to go out.
05:22Very good, ma'am.
05:23Mr. Sergeant comes at three for the sitting.
05:25It is your responsibility to make sure he gets here.
05:27Send the carriage, send the sleigh, send the 7th Regiment if you have to.
05:30But make sure he's here by three.
05:31Yes, ma'am.
05:32I think he'll find he has everything he needs.
05:34Good.
05:35It must be finished by the time his grace arrives.
05:37But don't mention that to Miss Gladys or Mr. Larry, or anyone in the household.
05:41I understand that.
05:42Larry and I are going for a walk, sister.
05:43Why?
05:44And where is Larry?
05:45Here I am.
05:46I said we want to see the snow.
05:47If you must go, be careful.
05:48Nothing can go wrong, not now.
05:49What's so special about now?
05:50Nothing.
05:51And don't be late for luncheon.
05:52Your sitting is at 3.
05:53.
06:03.
06:15.
06:16.
06:20.
06:21He's down there.
06:41Gladys.
06:44I'm surprised she let you come.
06:46Only just. She was frightened by the snow.
06:48These days she seems nervous if I leave the house.
06:50I suppose she doesn't want anything to interfere with her plans.
06:53My chief ambition in life is to interfere with your mother's plans.
06:57Will I see you tonight?
06:59Did Mrs. Fish give you the message?
07:01She did, and I'll try to be there.
07:05Wouldn't it be simpler if I speak to your father as soon as he's back?
07:09As long as you're sure.
07:11Of course.
07:15I can't wait for you to be my wife.
07:20But are you sure?
07:23I love you.
07:24And that makes me sure.
07:28Texas, New Mexico, Arizona.
07:30He's now expected back for weeks.
07:32What's he doing out there?
07:33He's set on a major expansion of his railroads.
07:36All the way to California, maybe even Mexico.
07:39I can't quite imagine Mr. Russell in the Wild West.
07:42I don't know. He's a pretty sharp shooter when he wants to be.
07:44He's out in the desert and here we are in what feels like a North Pole.
07:48Will I see you at the opera tonight?
07:50It's too soon for us to be seen together in public.
07:54It's been months.
07:55Yes.
07:56Because it's only months since I broke off my engagement to Dashiell.
08:00I've failed at it twice.
08:03Well, this time you'll succeed.
08:05I envy your certainty.
08:06I wish you shared it.
08:07I want to.
08:11I just can't handle scrutiny quite yet.
08:14You must understand with all the rumors surrounding Gladys' engagement to the Duke.
08:18It's my mother's wish, but it's not what Gladys wants.
08:22We'll see.
08:23And until we do, we'll face whatever comes together.
08:26But please, don't make me wait too long.
08:29I wish I could kiss you right now.
08:35Restrain yourself, Mr. Russell, all in good time.
08:42Will that make Mrs. Russell happy?
08:44No.
08:45My father won't mind.
08:46I better go see what Gladys has promised him now.
08:51Miss Brooke?
08:59Gladys.
09:00Gladys.
09:05How do you stay here?
09:11Where is this man?
09:12Is he late or are we early?
09:14And why is he so important?
09:15John Ranger's our middle man.
09:17If I'm in Tucson, he'll arrange for us to meet the miners.
09:21I want this done.
09:22And done quickly.
09:23I'm still not convinced it's worth the risk.
09:25You can make money without much trouble.
09:26Why not just allow yourself to do that and live well?
09:29You're not seeing the big picture.
09:31Fast freight is the future.
09:32And our route, with one line from New York to Chicago
09:35and the southern route from Chicago to Los Angeles,
09:37will be the fastest way to get across the country.
09:39When it's running, we can charge a huge premium.
09:41And with the grants and subsidies on offer,
09:43we can offset more than half the cost to build it.
09:45Maybe.
09:46But you'll have to risk an enormous amount of cash
09:48before you get to that point, if you ever get to that point.
09:51I'd rather have palaces in New York and Newport
09:53and live without Jay Gould breathing down my neck.
09:55He'd be breathing down my neck anyway.
09:57What about the copper?
09:58Forget the copper.
09:59You've read the metallurgist's report.
10:01We need the land for the railway.
10:03Why not just go around the mines?
10:05We have to build hundreds of miles of track through the mountains.
10:09We may do something with the mines at some point.
10:12Right now, just get me the land.
10:14The owners have been scrambling for a living for as long as they can remember,
10:17so it shouldn't take much.
10:19Let them rent back the mines if they want.
10:21But make sure we own them first.
10:23Mr. Russell.
10:25Ranger.
10:26I'm so glad you could join us.
10:27The cabled you were coming today.
10:29How is New Mexico?
10:30Good.
10:31Please.
10:34So, tell me.
10:38Will they sell?
10:39And who should we approach first?
10:41It's more complicated.
10:43The local mine owners, or most of them, want to see you together.
10:47I set up a meeting for Friday evening.
10:51I don't want to meet a bunch of stupid clodhoppers all at once.
10:54I prefer to pick them off one by one.
10:56They may be clodhoppers, but they're not stupid.
11:00They know their copper mines will be the biggest thing in the state if you're involved.
11:03Well, don't give them any leverage.
11:08The land matters.
11:10The mines don't.
11:12You know.
11:13You were so scary.
11:14I was not.
11:15I was not.
11:16It was just...
11:17Did you have a good time?
11:18Oh, yes.
11:19Though it seems so late for snow when spring's almost upon us.
11:22But you had a nice walk.
11:23More of a slide than a walk, but we did.
11:26I feel quite invigorated.
11:28I shall take that as a compliment, seeing as I pushed you into it.
11:32Mr. Sergeant is here.
11:33She'll ring for tea in an hour or so.
11:36And I think you should have a look at this.
11:41Someone must be looking for me.
11:43He asked me to confirm that you worked here.
11:46I suppose it's bad news.
11:48Why do you say that?
11:49This kind of a thing usually is.
11:53Oh, what are you bringing those back down for?
11:59Put them on the credenta for Mrs. Forte's temperance meeting.
12:02I did.
12:03But as I was sent it out, Mrs. Van Rhine said she didn't want her silver used for the meeting.
12:08What should I do?
12:09Well, it's Mrs. Van Rhine's silver.
12:11But Mrs. Forte pays our wages.
12:13We cannot serve two masters.
12:14But we do.
12:15All right.
12:16I'll speak to both Mrs. Forte and Mrs. Van Rhine.
12:20And you'll get two different answers.
12:23I'm sorry to banish you up here, but at least you don't have to drag the painting along when you go home.
12:31I'm happy, I assure you.
12:34The light is excellent in here.
12:37What's the point of this?
12:39I dare say Mr. Sargent can answer that.
12:43There's a moment when a young girl turns into a woman.
12:46It doesn't last long, and I'd like it caught on canvas.
12:50You managed it so well with your portrait of Miss Burkhart.
12:53I'm glad you liked it.
12:54I liked its dark and its light.
12:56I liked how you showed that youth is complicated and not just pretty.
13:00And that is what you want to see in a picture of Miss Russell?
13:03With a hint of what's to come when she takes her place in society.
13:08Oh, Mother.
13:11Excuse me.
13:16It troubles me that I never mentioned a slight commotion at the Paris Salon this year.
13:23About your portrait of Madame X?
13:25With her loose strap falling away from her naked shoulder?
13:28I had to repaint it back in place.
13:30It will only drive up your price.
13:32I wish I had your confidence.
13:34I wish I'd had my confidence when I was your age.
13:37Okay.
13:48Okay.
14:02Oh, Miss Scott.
14:03I was getting worried.
14:04I hope I'm in time.
14:05time i'm afraid my mother persuaded me to stay she didn't want me to travel through the snowstorm
14:09and was the letter that was waiting for you worth the journey it was from the editor of the christian
14:14recorder uh mr benjamin tucker tanner he's offered to publish an extract from my novel
14:19what but that's incredible how did he know about it i wrote to him sent him a few pages and a
14:26synopsis but i never thought i'd hear back it's such great news not just for you but for a lot
14:32of people i believe it could be we'll see you must need warming up after that journey banister can you
14:38fetch a brandy for miss scott of course mom uh but if i could scott has agreed to be part of our
14:44temperance meeting you have joined this absurd cause mrs forte just asked me to take notes because you
14:50did such an excellent job with the invitations you used my secretary on this nonsense who is in charge
14:56here that's rather what i wanted to agnes i won't remind you why i have the right to give orders
15:04is this enough chairs oh i think we need to create more space first perhaps we could move this table
15:09how many of them are there have you advertised this meeting to teetotalers in every part of the state
15:15it may be funny to you but it's a cause many people feel passionate about well this is not the coliseum
15:21it is a private home if there are so many people keen on spoiling the country's fun you'll need a
15:26bigger tent agnes i ask that you be on your best behavior this afternoon and if you cannot manage
15:32that please have the courtesy to stay in your room or go out i'm being banished from my own home not
15:38exactly may i remind you of the time when this house was your only shelter i've never been ungrateful until
15:44now bridget was given conflicting orders for the silver mum what's the problem i do not wish for
15:56those people to use my silver are you really that petty i'm discerning there is a difference besides no
16:07one will come in this weather let the sober circus begin
16:19alcohol is to blame for crime violence and even disease we cannot sit idly by while this scourge
16:28damages our children's future is it god's will for our great nation to have more saloons than public
16:34schools i don't believe so we must act or this sin will be our undoing we have to save those who can
16:42be saved what about the ones that won't stop drinking the bible says transgressors will be destroyed
16:49so i'm afraid those who partake of alcohol are destined to the fury of hell
16:55i want to thank our new benefactor mrs forte for opening her home to our cause
17:01and to all of you who braved the elements to join us today
17:10are we supposed to applaud our eternal damnation if we have wine with dinner
17:15my applause was in gratitude that she's finally finished and now will you please join us in the
17:21dining room for some tea
17:32i need a real drink have banister bring the decanter up to my room i hope you'll come down for dinner
17:39i might have a tray upstairs i must leave too charles and i are going to the opera tonight oh thank you for
17:46coming dear we must get you over here for dinner sometime not if we aren't serving wine
17:55i've had a letter from hector don't say he's coming to new york well i suppose dukes are allowed to
18:01travel like anyone else he asks after you in the letter i thought i might invite him to stay why i don't
18:08like him you hardly know him then he hardly knows me i'm going to catch the last act of the met tonight
18:16can i go with him no it's traviata with marcella sembrick singing violetta and there's always a good
18:23crowd for her i know we'll find one of your friends for gladys to sit with i suppose you'll want me to
18:31entertain your duke when he's here oh very well i saw aurora faint at mrs go that she said they're
18:39going look out for her thank you mother no what can i do when you bully me so oh there you are i've
18:47been worried sick with all the snow i had you overturned in a dish i should have sent a message
18:53i've eaten but i can get them to bring a tray while you change
18:56or should we abandon the opera of course we were going to see the third act of traviata we don't
19:03have to i think we both know how the story comes out i'm just relieved you're home and in one piece
19:08there's something i need to say first let me have them bring some supper aurora stop just sit and listen
19:17what is it
19:18this is extremely hard for me to say and i'm sorry but you will have noticed that for the
19:29past few months i've been away from the house a great deal you're very busy i know that i'm busy
19:34yes but i've also met someone
19:42and i've been spending a lot of time with her but i thought we were happy
19:48i've been happy haven't you don't make me say something unkind
19:53the fact is we've decided to marry and for that i need a divorce
20:04a divorce from me
20:08is there someone else i should be divorcing
20:12oh what a fool you must think me what a fool i've been you've tried i know but
20:18we don't care about the same things or even the same people the fact is we don't want the same life
20:29you'll divorce me of course
20:31why it's what you want i don't that's how it's done a gentleman doesn't divorce his wife
20:36maybe but he can treat her badly can't he
20:40you'll be protected nothing will be done that is not as you would have it that's not true is it
20:45because i don't want to be divorced avora the only accepted cause for divorce is adultery and i
20:50can't very well accuse you no because i have been faithful and i have not which i freely admit so
20:55you must bring the charge well i won't i i don't want to ruin my life why should i
21:01things are not as they used to be among our people things are very much as they used to be
21:06so you want us to go to war you march in here and tell me my life is over and i'm supposed to
21:11agree i don't mean to be unreasonable then stop being unreasonable and the answer is no i won't do
21:17it you'll be unhappy as well as me and so will your enamorata i suppose who is she may i know elsa
21:26lipton carter lipton's widow oh i knew it would be someone shady there's no need to be unpleasant it's
21:31the truth with her history it would just be one more battle scar when it would ruin me you exaggerate
21:37really do you think i would be welcome in the circles where i am welcome now as a divorced woman
21:48i never thought i would be glad to have no children
21:54i'm going up how strange when i bedecked myself in these gigas i was looking forward to your coming home
22:02i'm so sorry oscar didn't come down to dinner again i hope he's not ill i think he's just tired
22:21he had a tray in his room yes it must have been exhausting ruining me agnes he paid a high price
22:29he's lost his place at the bank he's given up his rooms and his valet i'm afraid he's just given up
22:37he never comes out of his room do you mind him living here should i ask him to move out how can
22:43he he has no money well i know what that's like anyway i don't want him to but he does need to find
22:50a plan marion may i ask you something of course it might be helpful for oscar to see more of young mr
22:58russell he must have plenty of money to play with but he works away i don't think mr russell gives
23:03him much money but he certainly does work hard better and better would you invite him to dinner say
23:08tuesday night you do remember he's in business with john trying to sell the clock which will only
23:14render the evening more interesting hmm i'm not sure i agree invite him
23:28that was magnificent thank you for including us of course my son was keen to see miss russell yes i
23:53could hear the whispers all the way through the second act we cannot contain young love if you'll
24:00excuse me of course if you want to marry me and i want to marry you we're already engaged so why not
24:08just tell her i can't while father's away and you have to ask him first i want it settled before her
24:14duke gets back to new york what how did you know about that i read it it's on paper she's not going
24:22to win not against my father i promise his mother seems to think they're in love she would not be wrong
24:29don't tell bertha that i assume she was not aware that billy carlton would be here
24:34uh we never said we were meeting you she finds out the truth i'll pay she can't keep gladys locked
24:42up forever not forever no just for long enough why what's mother done now she started to leak the
24:49details of the duke's next day an outing here a dinner there soon if it doesn't come off it'll look
24:55as if gladys has failed to land him i thought the newspaper articles were planted against her wishes
25:01less dignified ones maybe but she plays a long game your mother i don't dislike her not at all but
25:09she's sure this is for gladys's good and she won't let her daughter wreck her own future
25:15let us pray your father gets back in time
25:17jack you need more light it's very late for that mr larry needs him for the presentation this clock
25:33it'll never live and apparently it'll never die oh mrs van ryan gave me the menu for the dinner on
25:40tuesday oh but mrs forte's given me quite a different one oh this can't go on we all need
25:47to know who we're working for now that's your job mr bannister you have to get it settled i wonder who
25:53will win in the end mrs forte or mrs van ryan miss ada has the money now but does that mean she'll have
25:59the final say mrs van ryan won't give that up and she always speaks quite loudly will you go to the
26:06presentations i'm sure miss ada will let you probably she's soft enough find out the date
26:16oh it's mr oscar for jack again jack was just up there he'll want another glass of whiskey
26:22what does he do all day just lie around and drink it is not for us to comment
26:29if you'll excuse me i'll go up are you quite well my mother was right i must have caught a chill on my
26:35way to the train i'll make you a hot lemon and honey oh thank you good night
26:49i don't understand which bit is not clear none of it is clear i suppose charles has been unhappy
27:15unhappy what is this babble you have a nice house you have money people come to your dinners
27:22you're invited everywhere what more is there some people want more i know i do take a ride around
27:29five points or hell's kitchen and tell me you're not satisfied with your life but what about this mrs
27:34lipton these things can be managed without the horses skidding off the road really agnes you sound
27:41like madame de pompadour but she would have known how to sort this out what do you propose he wants
27:47me to establish residency in newport i've told him no he wants you to sit quietly in newport waiting to
27:53be ruined we're trying to be helpful agnes i'm ruined already to be honest or i will be when the rumors
28:00start but why do you have to do anything he has no grounds he needs me to divorce him that's what the
28:06law states and if it comes to it newport is better it can be settled in private there in new york the
28:14press is allowed into the court oh let's hope it doesn't come to that try to save the marriage if
28:22you can there's no logic in this at all you haven't done anything wrong society is not known for its logic
28:28especially where women are concerned we'll still ask you aunt agnes you'll ask aurora to your dinners
28:35won't you well if the divorce goes through she may not want to come in a group she may be happier alone
28:44well i've told him no so now we just have to see what happens i hope my intentions are clear sure
28:59you intend to buy our mines cheap make a pile of money and go back to new york to spend it and you
29:04represent arizona central mining company what mr russell wants your businesses are underfunded your
29:10transport belongs to the last century there's hardly a mine owned by any of you that hasn't
29:14gone bust in the past 20 years and you think you can change that why they need all of them what's
29:20your mind montezuma here's the thing mr russell they may not be much to you but these mines are all we
29:25have we won't give them up easy and we don't want to waste your time you need to find a way to make us
29:31all rich alongside you not as rich as you maybe but rich come up with that we'll reconvene
29:40they know who you are they also know you're their only chance indeed a cable for mr russell
29:56i must go home why what's happened there's a run on the metropolitan national bank they've accused
30:01the president of stealing funds what we've only just survived the failure of the marine national
30:07and john eno taking millions from the second national what's going on i know george sane he's
30:11an honest man and i'll lose a fortune if that bank goes down what about the negotiations you want your
30:17cut don't you clay will stay here pay them make sure i keep the lion's share and all the power when
30:23you succeed bring the contracts and i'll sign well suppose we don't succeed then you won't get your
30:27money and clay will be out of a job you don't mean that mr russell is a one-man band the rest of us are
30:35disposable now find me a coach to get me to yuma i can get a train from there shall we get something
30:42to eat did they manage a steak you won't like it but all right barkeep two steaks and more beer
30:50are we the first oh i made marion take a bath she's been in the cold and i don't want her coming down
31:14with something very sensible how are you getting on have you managed to find any new prospects
31:23i must confess it is quite hard to create the right impression meaning what exactly
31:31well i'm up against all these fellows with money and position well you have position even if you
31:37don't have money but that's the thing without money you just don't count well then you must find
31:41a way to make some it's not quite as easy as all that i'm sure but it can be done they say mr gould
31:50started with scarcely a dollar to his name so you won't give me an allowance oscar i will house you
32:04and feed you and even clothe you you are safe from real poverty which is the curse of millions but the
32:11rest you must do for yourself you might be inspired by young mr russell
32:24more wine though thank you bannister
32:30this is so kind of you mrs forte we want to hear about all your new projects that marion talks about
32:36and how your father supports you he does where he can yes how nice it must be to feel that everyone
32:45is on your side we'd all be on your side if you tried to find a job what draws you to a new idea
32:52like our footman's clock yes well that's easy mr trotter is a genius
32:57his clock is unique in the market and i have meetings planned over the coming weeks which is exciting
33:02you won't mind if john has some time off for that will you on data oh no of course no no i'm going
33:07to go alone at this stage i don't want to overwhelm them oh well we look forward to hearing how it all
33:13comes out and i hope you'll all be glad to hear i have a new position too what where the female normal
33:21and high school that sounds like a mistranslation why can't you keep teaching watercolors to nicely
33:29brought up young ladies that was bad enough honestly aunt agnes you chastise me for working
33:33and oscar for not working which is it well you're a lady oscar is not well it's only three times a week
33:40agnes the normal school is special it educates young women of every race class and religion
33:46we should be very proud of marion but won't she need a bodyguard you'd be surprised at what we all
33:52have in common such as suffrage for one a group of women have organized to support ossa ossa what's
33:59that the american woman suffrage association am i you astound me it is a cause that interests me
34:07really why am i not allowed to have my causes you have so many i should think suffering more important
34:14than suffrage no i apologize for having principles does this mean you approve of marion's new position
34:21no oh by the way jack mr weston wrote today he's definitely interested that's good sir i'm glad for
34:32this mr weston whoever he may be but can we revert to traditional ways and allow the footman to bring
34:38round more sauce of course that sounds rather awkward it was unusual i can say that it's wrong
34:50you're not at the meetings jack he doesn't know how it works not really he'll have the drawings but
34:57is that enough you keep saying mr larry is your partner so let him act like a partner and show you
35:02some respect mrs van ryan and mrs forte were at it again tonight you must get things settled you think
35:10it'll go away but it won't i know miss scott's not coming down so we can start supper she's no better
35:16then i'm afraid not she looks worse how was your evening i enjoyed it but they'll never make a worker
35:28out of oscar van ryan that was a lucky escape for me did mother say anything more about when father
35:33was coming home no she's so taken with getting ready for her wretched duke doesn't it worry i'll be
35:41safe once father's back he won't let her force me i promise she can be awfully persuasive when she
35:47wants to be mrs fish says mrs fish loves the drama she's longing to see father and the duke tussle it
35:52out in union square you don't think you should elope with billy to some state where it would be legal
36:02would you elope with marion
36:06you may be keeping it secret but i can tell you love her
36:12it's different for us marion and i just have to wait but you're running out of time
36:17will you plead my case with mother i'll try but don't hold out much hope when mother's made her
36:25mind up it takes an act of congress to change it are you ready for the bathroom no no no you go i'm in
36:36no hurry although this seems like an early bedtime for you that's my new life early bed and queuing for
36:43the bathroom oscar i'm sad if you don't like mr russell he's nice enough the fact is we're not cut from
36:58the same cloth i was born to be rich i was not born to make a fortune it's a different gift i need another
37:07way well we know of one other way which you've tried twice now without success ouch don't remind me
37:17will you have another go i have less to offer these days penniless as i am something will turn up
37:24and besides aunt ada won't let you starve no i won't starve but you'd like me to work every mouthful
37:28are you going to miss scott yes miss i'll take that
37:41oh you shouldn't have done that bridget was on her way up but i wanted to see how you are
37:45oh i've been better i just can't seem to shake it thank you untagnus was asking after you
37:51perhaps you should see a doctor oh no it's such an expensive it's just a cold promise me you'll
37:59sleep when i go they have asked for another chapter that i haven't written yet then they'll just have
38:04to wait oh wait how's your dinner aunt ada hoped that larry would inspire oscar to throw himself into the
38:16world of work which only shows how little she knows him i thought you might have announced your
38:23engagement to young mr russell there's plenty of time for that so you're not in a hurry then i've made
38:30two mistakes the first because i was blind the second because i thought i could settle for something less
38:35than perfect i was wrong both times i don't want to be wrong again i like mr russell so do i
38:43very very much but i felt the same for mr rakes he is not mr rakes he's honorable for one thing and
38:55kind-hearted and he's always been my friend but there's no rush all right now finish that and get
39:07some sleep mrs russell is serving coffee for her committee in the drawing room she thought you'd
39:20like some sir thank you i'm sure we both would you mean mr trotter is to have a cup of coffee too
39:26i'm sure that's what mrs russell intended
39:31i don't need any coffee of course you'll have coffee thank you james
39:37you think we were at the court of france joseph of austria
39:42i suppose it takes some getting used to for him you'll have your own footman before i'm finished
39:46with you and your own house on 61st street i'm gonna fight you on that
39:53now uh can you make one drawing concentrating on the new element i did that here
39:58oh yes i didn't see it and so this bit here is the same as that
40:11you sure you don't want me to be there in case they ask any technical questions i think i can manage
40:17you thank you mr bevan
40:29we should be pleased we're in good shape for next season and we're already established as one of the
40:33key opera houses in the world
40:39i agree well done alice it's something to celebrate yes i'm rather hoping that mrs russell and i will
40:46soon have another cause for celebration
40:50what's this i was saying you and i may soon be drinking a toast for a different reason
40:56i'm sorry i don't follow you well from what billy said you mean your son billy
41:03he was talking the other night when he got back from the opera talking about what gladys he'd seen
41:09her there with mrs fish but i don't want you to misunderstand we're all devoted to gladys we
41:15couldn't like her more what's this they met with you the young were milling about larry brought
41:19gladys to sit with me and the others came in and out of the box you know how it is i don't know
41:24anything of the sort mrs gardner are you leaving i'll suffer for that but billy was so sure what
41:35about the duke of buckingham i know there was talk but i thought that was gossip and billy been
41:41accepted we were just waiting for him to speak to mr russell in this house nothing is accepted that
41:47isn't proposed by missus russell
42:00hello adelheid your meetings done then yes and do you have a date set for the manufacturer of the
42:07great clock we're still looking for investors
42:10mr larry is playing with you like a doll jack he won't help you to make your clock
42:20i don't agree of course he needs why do you have to make a fool of mr bevan what's he done to you
42:26i didn't make a fool of him he offered me a cup of coffee mr larry offered you coffee and you should
42:33have refused and not made mr bevan wait on a junior footman from a smaller house across the street
42:41in america you don't have to live like your parents lived
42:46maybe i'm on my way to that
42:52you're getting above yourself jack mr larry may invite you for dinner and the night for all i care
42:59but you're not in favor downstairs
43:19good we can talk on our own what about thank you andrew mrs carlton was here this morning she thinks
43:27we're about to announce gladys's engagement to her son she told you about the opera she didn't know
43:32why it should be a secret nor do i unless it's because it's not happening let her live her own
43:39life mother if i had been given what i've planned for gladys i would have finished up queen of the world
43:46do you think father would agree when i've explained things to him i'm not so sure you were wrong to
43:52involve mrs fish in your schemes she'll spread it all over new york and newport i don't think so
43:57she likes gladys she likes gossip you're young and you're foolish i don't hold it against you
44:03since the two go together but i'm neither and i see that your sister can live a powerful interesting
44:08life do you know what it means to be the duchess of buckingham she can influence politics shape events
44:14set fashions in clothing and art or anything else but to do this she has to be sensible now and avoid
44:19stupid choices a stupid choice like billy carlton do you not thinking enough that gladys just wants
44:25to be happy happiness as a byproduct of a well-ordered life may last as a goal it is invariably doomed to
44:34failure
44:45miss scott
44:49oh mrs van ryan you shouldn't have come all the way up here i can still climb the stairs peggy you know
44:55better and it's clearly much more than a cold indeed i shall call the doctor oh please don't
45:02i'm just a little tired i think i caught a little cold on top of that
45:12try and sleep
45:13can we send for the doctor now i'll write to dr lewis at once dr lewis oh he knows her and he
45:25won't want to get on the wrong side of me
45:34you must be glad how it's going i'm glad you don't look very glad it was something adelaide said
45:40what do we have to thank her for now it was when i was leaving she said i'm getting above my station
45:47she thinks i made a fool of myself have you said this to mr larry no do you think i should i do not
45:54not one syllable of it this is your chance jack and there's no room for doubt i don't doubt the clock
46:01it's good and someone will see that one day i just wonder about my own part in it when mr larry was
46:08here and i was holding a dish for him to serve himself it did make me think it should only make
46:13you think of the road ahead we believe in you and miss marion mrs forte and even mrs van ryan
46:19everyone's ready to celebrate except miss armstrong maybe but everyone else
46:25dr lewis how very good of you doctor thank you my pleasure marion would you escort him upstairs of
46:40course thank you
46:46it might be wise to write to miss scott's parents mama marion seems to think she's really ill of course
46:52her father runs a pharmacy i wish we'd written before now what is it bannister should mrs bauer
46:59continue to hold dinner mom yes we should wait for miss marion and dr lewis to come back down
47:04i agree otherwise we might have to ask him to join us well that was very quick have you discovered
47:12what is wrong with her dr lewis is refusing to treat her because she is colored you said in your
47:19note she was your secretary miss scott is my secretary and she is colored you have met her
47:23before i must have forgotten i'm afraid i do not take colored patience good evening to you
47:31isn't that against the hippocratic oath when he's here already what are we to do now send for her
47:37parents and quickly i'll write a letter and have john deliver it tonight i hope dr lewis regrets
47:43his choice when he realizes what it will cost him john take this to brooklyn right away to mr and mrs scott
47:50i'll find you a cab mrs van ryan must have known the doctor wouldn't treat her she thinks rules don't
47:56apply to her you can't ask people to change their ways at a moment's notice they should have sent for
48:01her parents before now you married father for love you chose your husband why can't i because i was
48:11nothing special you're george russell's daughter you need someone worthy of that i'm not like you
48:15mother i don't want to be at the head of society but you already are and that is why you cannot be
48:19ruled by infatuation what i feel for billy is real billy will never achieve anything of note and he
48:25will grow to resent you for his own shortcomings he's from a good family three years ago you would have
48:29begged to be invited into their drawing we've overtaken them now my sweet girl i'm not a girl
48:35not anymore when will you see that you're a girl if i say and i pray that's why you have no judgment
48:41please god you'll grow out of it well you have no values will you grow out of that why do you think
48:47i should stand aside and watch you marry some worthless nun entity don't you know a bad marriage is a
48:53prison i couldn't agree more good night gladys
