00:00What are you wearing? I thought you were playing tennis.
00:10She got a better offer. We're going into town.
00:12Alicia got tickets to the cinema. I'm sorry. I was just coming to tell you.
00:15But you promise?
00:16I know. I'll make it up to you.
00:17When?
00:18After we've seen Frankenstein.
00:20I mean, I suppose they could come.
00:23That's a wizard idea. We could have popcorn, ginger beer.
00:26They can't come into town. They're too little.
00:29That doesn't make any sense. I'm almost as tall as you.
00:32She means you're too young. Third formers aren't allowed into town without adult supervision.
00:36And no matron means no chaperone.
00:38Besides, Frankenstein's too scary for the likes of you.
00:41Please, Daryl.
00:42I'm sorry, truly, but rules are rules.
00:44Rules are unfair.
00:46Unfortunately, no one cares what third formers think.
00:48Come on, Daryl.
00:50No one cares what third formers think.
00:52Really?
00:53Can't wait.
00:54I think it's time the third form taken down a peg or two. Don't you?
00:58Don't you?
00:59No.
01:00No.
01:01No.
01:02No.
01:03No.
01:07No.
01:09No.
01:11No.
01:12No.
01:13No.
01:15What is it, Mary Lou?
01:36I'm really rather busy here.
01:38You are? Doing what?
01:39Father's been threatening not to send me to finishing school.
01:42Unless I buck up my ideas.
01:44So, I am here, sacrificing my Sunday for extra revision.
01:50Well, Miss Grayling's asked for either her head girl or deputy,
01:53and as Daryl's at the cinema, that leaves you?
01:56It's typical.
01:57Rivers always manages to spoil everything, even when she's not here.
02:01So tell her I'll be along shortly.
02:03Oh, and Gwen?
02:05Your book's upside down.
02:06Ah, Gwen.
02:15Thank you for coming.
02:17When I heard that Daryl had skived off to the cinema,
02:19I came as soon as I could.
02:21How may I help you?
02:22As you know, the North Tower is currently without a matron.
02:25Matron Shipley will be sorely missed.
02:27But medical issues aside,
02:29there are other duties that require attention.
02:32Other duties?
02:33Laundry collection, dorm inspection, that kind of thing.
02:36Well, could you not just get the old matron to return?
02:40I'm afraid Matron Ma has declined for personal reasons.
02:44So, for the time being,
02:45I'd be very grateful if the sixth form could help us out
02:48during this difficult patch.
02:50And, er, could these other duties be delegated?
02:55As long as they're completed.
02:56And might all of this count for some extra credit on my report?
03:01As long as studies are kept up.
03:04They could be mentioned on reports, yes.
03:06Right, well, I don't see any reason to involve anyone else, Miss Grayling.
03:11I will step into the breach.
03:13You will?
03:14Yes.
03:15I will personally see to it that North Tower
03:18is run with the discipline and efficiency
03:20that it both requires and deserves.
03:24Splendid.
03:31Wasn't that such a good movie?
03:33Enjoy the show.
03:35What are you doing?
03:36Third formers should not be roaming the school corridors at this time.
03:40Is that one of your rules?
03:42Now!
03:44June!
03:48Ow!
03:48Stop!
03:49What are you doing?
03:50Just do it!
03:51Alicia, help!
03:53Sit out!
03:54Do not!
03:55I'm just kidding!
03:56I'm just kidding!
03:56I'm just kidding!
03:56I'm just kidding!
03:56Oh!
03:57Oh!
04:09You volunteered to do a matron's duty.
04:12Only the easy ones.
04:13It's perfect.
04:15Miss Grayling will tell Daddy about my extra credit,
04:17and then everyone will stop going on about my attitude.
04:23What do you think?
04:26Are you sure about this plan?
04:28Being a matron is a difficult job.
04:30It's laundry collection and bossing children about.
04:33How difficult can it be?
04:35It's not our fault.
04:41They ambushed us for no reason.
04:42No reason?
04:43Of course we had a reason.
04:44Fine.
04:45They wanted to come to the cinema with us, and we said no.
04:47Because it's against the rules.
04:48You can't blame us for that.
04:49We can.
04:50Our fault.
04:50Because we can.
04:50Because we're being so high and mighty about it.
04:52High and mighty?
04:53High and mighty?
04:53What are you thinking about it?
04:54Girls!
04:54Girls!
04:56You should be able to discuss your differences reasonably.
04:58You know those rules are unfair.
05:00That's just it.
05:01I'm not sure I agree.
05:02Some rules are important.
05:03You're only saying that because these rules don't apply to you.
05:06Exactly.
05:06They did once.
05:07But we're Sixth Formers now, and we have more freedom than you.
05:09You can't argue against that.
05:18Maybe we can argue.
05:20We could have a debate.
05:21Form versus form.
05:23You did say to discuss our differences reasonably.
05:26That's an excellent suggestion.
05:28We'll be team captains.
05:32Good.
05:32That's settled then.
05:33A debate will be held tomorrow afternoon.
05:35Team Rivers versus Team Rivers.
05:40Ah, ah.
05:41Tidy this up.
05:56Action birds!
05:57Come along now.
05:58Quickly, have thought all day.
06:00Good morning, Third Fort.
06:03You are probably wondering why I am here.
06:06Sacrificing my precious time and my beauty sleep.
06:12This is why.
06:14Since Matron Ship Shape's departure, standards have been allowed to slip.
06:23And Miss Grayling has turned to me in North Tower's moment of crisis.
06:25Wait.
06:26You're the new Matron?
06:28Do you have an issue with that, Jones?
06:30Do you believe that I am not capable?
06:33I think Joe is just surprised, as we all are.
06:37Why?
06:38It's just a lot to take on.
06:40You'll be doing our laundry.
06:42Clearing up after us at supper.
06:45Performing our knit checks.
06:47Dear me, no.
06:48No.
06:49My role is more supervisory than hands-on.
06:55As such, I will be delegating duties to the relevant head of form.
07:01You mean me?
07:04We must all answer duty's call when it sounds, Clarissa.
07:09Gwen, Clarissa does seem quite ill.
07:12Maybe I'm just a real Matron?
07:14Nonsense.
07:15A little sniffle never hurt anyone, did it, Clarissa?
07:18Stand up.
07:21Now, we will begin with laundry.
07:26The collection van comes at 8am, and I will need everybody's bed linen on it.
07:35I'm going back to bed.
07:37Oh, no.
07:38Come on, please.
07:39Strip the beds.
07:40Come on, then.
07:43Alicia, look.
07:44It's from your mother.
07:45It must be about the time capsule.
07:47Hopefully, they sent more clues about where they buried it.
07:49And what's inside?
07:52Not snooping, are you?
07:53Snooping?
07:54Looking at my debate prep.
07:56Of course not.
07:57I just want to know what your mum says about the buried treasure.
08:01Can you grab my pencil case, please?
08:04Look, I'll tell you what.
08:05Win the debate, and I'll show you what's inside this letter.
08:12Got you.
08:14Two teams of two speakers.
08:17Me and June versus Alicia and Daryl.
08:21A motion is put forward.
08:23This tower believes the third form should have the same freedoms as the sixth form.
08:28The third form will speak for the affirmative.
08:30The sixth form will argue against.
08:33Each side takes it in turn to speak.
08:36Who decides who wins?
08:38Judges, who I suppose will be the audience.
08:42Us.
08:43Well then, I vote for Felicity to win.
08:45You must listen to all the arguments and weigh them up on merit.
08:48Debate is not a popularity contest.
08:50It's an important life skill.
08:52They teach it at my brother's school.
08:54Teddy says it will help him become Prime Minister one day.
08:57Felicity, have you chosen a teammate?
08:59Yes, Mr. Parker.
09:01June.
09:02Ah, Johns versus Johns.
09:04Promises to be a feisty affair.
09:08Just how long have you had that call, Clarissa?
09:10I've finished.
09:12I've finished.
09:16Celeste, do not let me catch you running in the corridor again.
09:22And pull your sock up.
09:24Mallory Towers is a place of high learning, not a village barn.
09:28Enjoying yourself?
09:30I'm just bringing water to the chaos, dear Mary Lou.
09:34You know how seriously I take my duties as Matron.
09:37About that, Miss Grayling wanted me to find you.
09:40Apparently the laundry service called
09:42and said that the third form pillowcases have not been collected.
09:46Oh, well, that must be a mistake.
09:49I did give very clear instructions to Clarissa.
09:51Well, you'd better check
09:52because Miss Grayling said she's doing a dorm inspection tonight
09:55and the girls must have clean bed linen.
09:57Right.
10:01Mary Lou!
10:04No running.
10:15I thought Alicia wanted to find the time capsule as much as us.
10:18She does.
10:19I think she was just teasing.
10:21Or maybe she would rather beat us at solving the mystery.
10:25Alicia can be rather competitive.
10:28It does seem the older they get, the less the sixth form have time for us.
10:31If we win this debate, they'll be forced to take us more seriously.
10:35Where is Clarissa?
10:37She said she'd be helping us with debate ideas.
10:39Mr. Parker was worried she'd have an infection,
10:42so Mary Lou's taking her to the West Tower San.
10:45Clarissa, this really is most inconsiderate of you.
10:49Sorry?
10:50Yes.
10:51Well, sorry doesn't clean the third form pillowcases, does it?
10:56I really don't know how you missed them in the first place.
10:58Maybe because she's poorly.
11:00And perhaps the standing matron should have realised that.
11:03That's details.
11:04Do you know what's going to have to happen now?
11:06You clean the pillowcases yourself?
11:08Yes.
11:09Laughing at another's inconvenience, Mary Lou, is most unbecoming.
11:14Perfect timing.
11:17You two have just volunteered.
11:19Volunteered?
11:20For what?
11:21Washing these pillowcases.
11:23But we are going to the debate.
11:25No, you are not.
11:26Consider it punishment for running in the corridor earlier.
11:29Wait.
11:31I wasn't caught running in the corridor.
11:33Well...
11:34Celeste was.
11:36And I'm sure that if you had been with her,
11:38that you would have been running too.
11:39Sooner you start, sooner you finish.
11:42We don't know how.
11:43Well, you just add a bit of soap and water.
11:46Give it a stir.
11:49It's also a punishment for eating sweets in the dorm.
11:52So nervous.
11:54Oui.
11:55All right, everyone.
11:57Felicity to start.
12:07January 25th, 1308, Isabella became Queen of England
12:11when she was just 12 years old.
12:14Her son was crowned King Edward Plantagenet III at 14.
12:19My age.
12:21Third formers might be younger than sick formers,
12:24but we are no less capable of responsibility
12:26or deserving of trust,
12:28as this debate will prove.
12:29This isn't about age.
12:40It is about maturity.
12:42The quality of behaving in a sensible adult manner.
12:45Maybe 14-year-old King Edward required less adult supervision
12:49than the Mallory Tower's third form girls,
12:51but he was learning to lead a nation,
12:52not starting pillow fights.
12:59And the pillowcases?
13:01Well, it's all taken care of.
13:02Up to our safety!
13:03A romance!
13:07When is so bossy,
13:12is the water supposed to be dumping?
13:18Oh, what did you do?
13:21People change, society changes, rules become stuffy and outdated.
13:30Point of order, the rules were made by Miss Grayling.
13:34Is June calling her stuffy and outdated?
13:37Of course not. Miss Grayling knows injustice when she sees it.
13:40That's why she changed the monitor rules when we campaigned against them.
13:44We were right then, and we're right now.
13:47The rules are about safety, not injustice.
13:51Mallory Towers must protect younger, immature pupils.
13:54Bit rich of you to talk about being immature.
13:56All the pranks that you play.
13:58Pranks are one thing. Alicia's talking about younger girls getting others and themselves in trouble.
14:02No one has broken more rules than you have, Daryl.
14:04Please don't inter-
14:04Everybody knows how much trouble your temper's caused.
14:09Daryl, Felicity, a word.
14:12I'm so sorry, I didn't mean that.
14:14I don't know why she's apologising.
14:16Daryl has got a vicious temper.
14:19Well done, Felicity, bravo.
14:21It's going to be rather more interesting than I thought, this debate.
14:25This is not debate standards.
14:27You cannot just interrupt or allow your temper to get the better of you.
14:30Sorry, Mr. Parker.
14:39What have you done?
14:41What?
14:42You told us to.
14:43Put laundry in water, soap, stuff.
14:45It's mine.
14:54Excuse me.
14:55Ow!
14:57We've plunged it a lot already and it's not helping.
15:01There must be some way to get the colour out.
15:03Yes, but what?
15:06I don't know.
15:07I'm not matron.
15:10Joe, that's it.
15:12We need to ask a real matron.
15:14It's brilliant.
15:15She can be nice when she wants.
15:21The only way to earn responsibility is to be trusted with it.
15:25So I think I'm equivalent to...
15:26Work is a lot harder.
15:28And we've been doing it for much longer.
15:29The third form does just as much work.
15:32It's interesting that you bring up maturity, seeing as the whole reason to re-battle against
15:35it, because you think it's unfair.
15:37And now, let's present the closing statements.
15:40The third form deserved the freedom to make mistakes and learn from them.
15:44After all, at the end of the day, we only have ourselves to rely on.
15:47I do have a temper and it's caused me all sorts of problems, but I'm really learning
16:00to try and be better than that, because Mallory Towers teaches young girls to mature, to become
16:06responsible adults.
16:08That is why it is right that the sixth form have more freedoms than the third.
16:17To both teams.
16:19We will take a vote.
16:31Congrats.
16:31You did well.
16:33Maybe you should talk about to June.
16:35And why would I want to do that?
16:37Because she's your sister and she loves you, even though you barely give her the time of
16:40day.
16:41Cousin.
16:43Sorry, what?
16:44June's my cousin.
16:45You said sister.
16:46So, take your seats, please.
16:51The votes are in.
16:54The winner of the sixth form versus third form debate is the sixth form.
17:00Well done.
17:12Congratulations.
17:12Dune.
17:22Lemons?
17:23She's gone bananas.
17:24Gwen, what's happened?
17:24Well, the pillowcase has got stained, so I asked Matron of Westhouse for some advice
17:34to fix it.
17:35She said lemons, baking soda, and a bit of elbow grease.
17:40What is Giselle, buzz?
17:42I think it means hard work.
17:44No, I'm never going to get this done in time.
17:48Miss Grayling's going to be disappointed.
17:50Father is going to say no to finishing school.
17:52All of this was meant to be easy, but it's actually really rather humiliating.
17:56Well, whose fault is that?
17:58Well, Clarissa didn't help.
18:00Gwen.
18:01Well, I suppose I can accept a tiny portion of responsibility.
18:05Gwen?
18:06What?
18:07What do you want me to say?
18:08That it's all my fault.
18:10I can blame no one but myself.
18:11I've cut corners and taken shortcuts.
18:13No, not now, Joe.
18:15No.
18:15Well, isn't that true?
18:21Yes.
18:23Yes, I suppose so.
18:27Now look at me.
18:28Really, what am I going to do, Mary Lou?
18:40What are you doing?
18:43Many hands make light work.
18:45You're going to help me?
18:47Of course.
18:49You only get to ask.
18:50But I didn't ask.
18:52You did.
18:53Just not in many words.
18:57Right.
18:58All hands on deck.
19:00There's lemon.
19:01And it's pink.
19:02Is this how you make pink lemonade?
19:04Of course.
19:04Sorry for running off like that.
19:17Not very sporting of me, was it?
19:19Obviously, being allowed to go to the movies means a lot.
19:22It's not about the cinema.
19:24It never was.
19:25Not really.
19:26Then what is it?
19:27Felicity, are you angry with me?
19:35Maybe.
19:36Why?
19:37For winning a debate?
19:40Because you're all grown up now.
19:43And it feels like you never have time for me anymore.
19:45It's not true.
19:45I will always make time for my little sister.
19:49Today's the first time this term we spent any real time together.
19:52And most of it to argue.
19:56Okay, right.
19:57I'm sorry.
20:00But still, you can't get across from me for growing up.
20:02Can't help it.
20:04I know.
20:05It's just...
20:06Soon you'll be off to university, studying medicine, becoming a doctor.
20:10And that's wonderful.
20:13But...
20:14I'm going to miss you so much.
20:25Do you know why I want to be a doctor?
20:27Why?
20:28Because I get to make monsters like Frankenstein!
20:32Hard luck on the debate.
20:44You did well.
20:45I'd have voted for you.
20:46Really?
20:46What's the punchline?
20:48No jokes.
20:50I don't say it enough, but I'm proud of you.
20:52Who are you, and what have you done with my cousin?
20:56I've got something for you.
20:59My mother says all the clues needed to find the time capsule
21:02are in your mother's letter.
21:03But she did give us a clue as to what they put inside.
21:07Look.
21:09There's a chess set buried in the time capsule.
21:12She kept this piece as a memento
21:13and sent it as a challenge for me to find the rest.
21:17But...
21:17now I'm giving it to you.
21:21Why?
21:23Because there's no one I trust more
21:25that saw this mystery.
21:27June!
21:28I need you to bring the third form to our common room tonight.
21:31All right, we have a surprise for you.
21:47Well, Gwendolyn...
21:48I must say you've done a sterling job.
21:54Well, a firm hand at the tiller makes for a steady ship.
21:58And, of course, I couldn't have done it
22:01without a loyal and hard-working crew.
22:04Well, perhaps the North Tower doesn't need a new matron after all.
22:08Oh, no, no, no, Miss Grayling, we need a new matron.
22:10Please, anyone but Gwen...
22:12Miss Grayling,
22:15after having carried out the matronly duties,
22:22I have a new respect for the position.
22:26Hmm.
22:26Well...
22:27And the people that have served before
22:29are previous matron.
22:31For example,
22:34I would really like to invite her to...
22:39a special tea.
22:41What?
22:42Old ship shape?
22:43No, not matron Shipley.
22:46Um, our old matron.
22:48You don't know her.
22:49She's Irish, and she's ever so sweet and kind.
22:53Anyway, a small tea to express our gratitude,
22:57but we would need your help to extend the invitation.
23:01Well, it sounds like a lovely idea.
23:05Let's discuss it.
23:07Now, what did you have in mind?
23:09We could have it in my study.
23:10It's a little bit further now.
23:19It's better not be a prank, Daryl.
23:21It's so...
23:22Ta-da!
23:23Is that a movie projector?
23:25Well, I just thought, if we can't go to the cinema,
23:28the next best thing is to bring the cinema to you.
23:30A special screening with popcorn and all the trimmings.
23:33So, what was all this special tea business?
23:35Well, it's very simple.
23:37I've asked Miss Grayling to invite our old matron back to Mallory Towers.
23:41So that I can present her with an award.
23:44An award? What?
23:45Uh, I don't know, but it doesn't really matter.
23:47The point is that we get her to come back and return as matron.
23:51Well, how are we going to get her to do that?
23:53I haven't thought that far through her head yet.
23:56Well, does Miss Grayling know about this part of your plan?
23:58No, of course she doesn't.
24:00And you ought to tell her.
24:01It's a secret.
24:03You know, the situation's actually intolerable.
24:05I hand-washed dirty bed linen today.
24:08No.
24:09We need to get our old matron to return, and we do not.
24:12Let her leave.
24:13Quiet, please.
24:15The movie is about to begin.
24:17Exciting.
24:19Brilliant.
24:20Starting.
24:21Pass me the popcorn.

24:26Our very own cinema.

24:31Yee-haw!
24:34Perfect.
24:34It's a Lily Vernon film.
24:36She's my very favourite actress.
24:38Gwen, be quiet.
24:39I've seen this one before.
24:40Gwen.
24:41What?
24:42I've seen this one before.
24:43In the whole film, it's about the pursuit of the treasure.
