[00:02:25]I don't require any help. Thank you, sister.

[00:02:51]Sister Lydia, Reverend Mother wants to talk to you. She says, "Will you go and sit and wait outside and she'll call you to come in?"

[00:02:58]>> Thank you, Sister Agnes.

[00:03:02]A visitor said to me the other day, "I'm so surprised." She said, "You all look so happy here." I said, "Well, why shouldn't we look happy? We have every reason to be." I only mention this because, well, it's none of my business. People must decide for themselves.

[00:03:20]Decide what, Sister Agnes.

[00:03:23]You had a lot of happiness here when you were young. when you were at school here. I mean, but was there so much happiness for you outside?

[00:03:33]It's good to bear it in mind. Why do you talk of outside?

[00:03:38]I shouldn't have spoken at all. You'd better go and wait for Reverend Mother.

[00:03:43]>> Yes, Sister Agnes.

[00:03:54]Was there so much happiness for you outside?

[00:04:09]It's good to bear it in mind. Bear it in mind.

[00:04:14]Bear it in mind.

[00:04:47]Excuse me. Are you all right? I thought you were going to faint.

[00:05:07]>> I'm perfectly all right. Thank you.

[00:05:33]>> The evening news, please. Only one left.

[00:05:36]Who spoke first?

[00:05:37]>> Madam, of course. I'd like the star.

[00:05:40]Take for both.

[00:05:41]>> I can pay for my own. Thank you.

[00:05:43]>> I beg your pardon. Take for one.

[00:05:46]I still think you ought to have some coffee.

[00:05:49]>> I'll let you pay for it.

[00:05:50]>> That's too kind of you.

[00:05:52]>> Oh, Simon.

[00:05:54]>> Hello.

[00:05:56]>> This is wonderful. Hello, Lydia. How are you?

[00:05:59]>> How are you?

[00:05:59]>> I had no idea you were in England.

[00:06:01]>> Just arrived from Mass.

[00:06:02]>> You two know each other.

[00:06:03]>> Well, we don't.

[00:06:04]>> We have a lot in common. The evening news.

[00:06:06]>> You know each other now. Anyway, my old friend Paul Deandere, Miss Lydia Gar.

[00:06:10]>> Delighted, Miss G. May I pay for your paper now?

[00:06:13]>> I came to tell you you're wanted at the clinic. It's the otitus media case.

[00:06:16]>> What I was afraid of?

[00:06:17]>> Yes.

[00:06:17]>> Well, that's not so good. I'll come along. But we can dine together. Lydia as well if you're free, Paul. But perhaps Miss Gar is not for you.

[00:06:25]>> I'm sorry. I have a date.

[00:06:26]>> You have a date with us? This is professional. I've got to tell you all about the Copenhagen conference. I won't take no for an answer. And Paul's never been known to. We'll do the thing properly. Black tie, bib, and Tucker.

[00:06:37]I'll pick you up at your flat at 8:00.

[00:06:41]>> Here's your fur, dear, and your bag. And you keep well wrapped up. You're enough trouble without coming down with a call.

[00:06:48]All right, Rose. Stop russing and answer the door. It's Dr. Blake. Patience.

[00:06:57]Come in, Dr. Blake. Oh, >> good evening. Dr. Blake has been delayed at the clinic and he asked me to look after Miss G until he could join us. May I come in? Miss G, you look charming in a charming flat, too.

[00:07:14]Oh, St. Francis. He is an old friend of ours at home. He is the patron saint of our village.

[00:07:20]Don't say he's yours, too.

[00:07:22]>> My name's Lydia Francis.

[00:07:24]>> I said we had a lot in common.

[00:07:27]>> I'm not at all sure that is right.

[00:07:29]>> Oh, Rosa, don't work yourself into a state. Thank you. This is Rosa. She's looked after me since I was a baby. She knows I really can't afford her, but she just won't go. This is Mia Deandia from France. France.

[00:07:44]>> A beautiful country, madame. You must come and see for yourself. Perhaps when Miss G comes to stay with us.

[00:07:49]>> Oh, so you're going to France, are you?

[00:07:51]>> This is the first I've heard of it.

[00:07:53]Well, I suppose it'll be all right. Have a nice evening, dear.

[00:07:59]>> Uh, Simon will turn up, of course.

[00:08:02]>> Do you think Simon would leave you alone with me when we've only just met?

[00:08:06]>> No.

[00:08:08]>> Please don't keep her out late, sir.

[00:08:10]>> I am sure Dr. Blake will want Miss G to go home early, even if I don't.

[00:08:29]>> What half hour was that?

[00:08:32]>> Must be 12.

[00:08:36]>> It's getting late.

[00:08:38]I was telling you about the chatau.

[00:08:42]It's perched up there in the sky with the old village clambering up the hill beside it.

[00:08:51]At night, you can feel the silence and you can see the dark line of the cypress trees guarding us like sentinel.

[00:09:03]You'll love it when you and Rosa come to stay with us.

[00:09:08]Have you ever been to the south of France before?

[00:09:12]>> Every year till I was 14.

[00:09:14]>> So you went to school there to convent?

[00:09:18]You are Catholic?

[00:09:19]>> I was in a convent here. No, father used to take us to Monte Carlo.

[00:09:25]He took us once too often.

[00:09:28]Now all I have left is a fur coat, small annuity, and Rosa.

[00:09:37]Why do you suppose Simon didn't join us?

[00:09:40]>> You forgot. I must remember to thank him.

[00:09:44]>> That's funny.

[00:09:47]When I first saw you, you seem to be in a sort of a haze.

[00:09:51]>> Yes, I have been in a haze ever since I've met you. All the evening, nearly all night.

[00:09:59]>> He's only at boss 12.

[00:10:01]By the way, as a point of interest, do you believe in love at first sight?

[00:10:11]>> No.

[00:10:14]>> Hello. Yes. This is Dr. Blakes. Yes, Mr. B. Your appointment's at 4:00. Perfectly right, Mr. Bowers.

[00:10:22]>> And Rosie, you say, was simply furious.

[00:10:24]>> Well, it was 4:00. I thought it was only one.

[00:10:27]>> He must be ever so attractive.

[00:10:32]Well, good morning. Good morning.

[00:10:33]>> Good morning, doctor. Nasty case last night. Just escaped lateral sinus thrombosis. What happened to you?

[00:10:40]>> What did happen to you? You never turn up at Luigi's.

[00:10:43]>> Luigi's? But we were supposed to meet at the Morocco.

[00:10:46]>> Paul said he'd bring you to Luigi's.

[00:10:48]>> Oh, he did, did he?

[00:10:50]>> Was probably my mistake. I hope you enjoyed yourselves. You must get to know each other better.

[00:10:56]>> Or have you?

[00:10:58]I'd like to see those conference notes again.

[00:11:00]>> All right, I'll ring them.

[00:11:01]>> Well, they deal with the penicellin treatment of some conditions.

[00:11:04]>> Yes, they're here.

[00:11:08]>> I think it was the third day.

[00:11:12]>> Page three. Yes, that's right. There was a long analysis by Dr. Cobra on the What's the matter?

[00:11:32]>> It's nothing.

[00:11:33]If you'd like me to index these then.

[00:11:36]>> Come on. What happened?

[00:11:38]>> I don't know. It's the second time.

[00:11:41]>> What?

[00:11:42]>> Things just sort of go blurred.

[00:11:46]Probably been overwork.

[00:11:48]>> Yes, you have.

[00:11:50]Hello. Oh, Paul, you're sorry about Luigi's. I bet you are staying another week. Well, that's fortunate. There's a young woman here who's going to need some entertaining.

[00:12:03]>> Um, hold on. You're starting a week's holidays from now.

[00:12:06]>> But doctor's orders. Come on.

[00:12:10]>> Hello, Paul. So, you're staying another week.

[00:12:15]>> Are we having lunch? I don't think we are after the way you treated Simon last night. Was it a mistake?

[00:12:24]>> Get Mr. Sir Robert Hammond.

[00:12:26]>> Yes, sir.

[00:12:28]>> I think he's away.

[00:12:32]>> He may be back.

[00:12:35]>> Sir Robert Hammond, please. For Dr. Blake.

[00:12:39]Sir Robert is still away. Will you speak to your secretary?

[00:12:42]>> Yes.

[00:12:45]>> Hello.

[00:12:48]Oh, so Robert comes back on Tuesday.

[00:12:50]Well, look, I want him to see a close friend of mine as soon as he can.

[00:12:54]Yes, she complains of a blurring of the eyes.

[00:12:58]Well, it may be over work. We've got a chance to check on that, but I'm afraid it's more in Sir Robert's line.

[00:13:05]Tuesday at 3. The name is Miss G. Thank you.

[00:13:12]You didn't hear that conversation?

[00:13:14]>> No, sir.

[00:13:18]Oh, very well if you insist. All right, 1:00. I'll be waiting. Goodbye.

[00:13:25]>> Off you go.

[00:13:26]>> Oh, Simon, >> we'll manage without you. And enjoy yourself.

[00:13:31]>> Thank you.

[00:13:33]I believe I will.

[00:13:37]Dance till dawn with Paul.

[00:13:41]Drove to the river with Paul.

[00:13:46]poor all day.

[00:13:51]>> You still don't believe in love at first sight.

[00:13:55]>> There has to be an exception to every rule.

[00:14:00]And is it this fourth or fifth sight?

[00:14:07]>> No blaring of the eyes for a week. It was overwork.

[00:14:11]Paul leaves today. Occasion please.

[00:14:15]British European Airways tried to prove more fails. Your passenger holding coach is on the coach.

[00:14:21]>> This one too. Hurry along, please. Thank you. We're running it closer. You out.

[00:14:25]>> Come on, Harry P.

[00:14:26]>> But we must go to our first boo.

[00:14:28]>> Yes, you'll see. There it is. One day they'll hang a plaque with on it the words here. Paul fell in love with Lydia.

[00:14:38]>> Oh, they got a news for each of us today.

[00:14:40]>> Coach is just leaving, sir. Thank you.

[00:14:41]>> Come on.

[00:14:42]>> Thank you, darling. I'll be back in 2 weeks. Till then, I'll telephone you every 10 minutes.

[00:14:46]>> Make it 5.

[00:14:48]>> I love you.

[00:14:50]I will always love you. When I come back, will you marry me?

[00:14:55]>> I love you, Paul. Of course, I'll marry you.

[00:14:58]>> Can't hold the coat, sir.

[00:15:00]>> Yes. Goodbye, darling.

[00:15:08]>> Attention, please. Will Mr. Yensen, a passenger to Oslo, please day number three. Mr. Yensen to bay number three.

[00:15:19]>> Taxi.

[00:15:23]Oh, taxi.

[00:15:28]>> Oh, my lady.

[00:15:30]I don't know who the one on top is.

[00:15:44]terribly sorry where you're going.

[00:15:52]>> Won't you take my seat?

[00:15:53]>> Thank you.

[00:15:54]>> And one over there. Four beers, please.

[00:15:56]Be >> high popcorn, please.

[00:16:00]>> Two and a half.

[00:16:05]Sorry.

[00:16:07]Seemed sorry that was today.

[00:16:29]I can't see.

[00:16:39]It is what is known as peplodema.

[00:16:42]The eye nerves get water logged due to the rise of pressure in the skull.

[00:16:47]One surgeon in a million might give you back your sight, but it is one chance in a hundred that you would live and then you might live without a mind.

[00:16:58]Sir Robert, you're one of the best opalmic surgeons in the world.

[00:17:03]What if I take the chance?

[00:17:06]>> I'm sorry. I won't take it.

[00:17:31]Come this way, my child. Sit down.

[00:17:35]There's a chair a little further to your right.

[00:17:39]That's it.

[00:17:41]Thank you, Reverend Mother.

[00:17:47]It isn't any good, is it? You've been with us for 6 months. Six months of darkness is meant no more than that.

[00:17:54]>> I haven't said so, Reverend Mother.

[00:17:56]>> You don't have to. I've been watching you.

[00:18:01]You are not ready for your vows yet.

[00:18:03]Perhaps you never will be. The pull of the world is still in your heart. That's why I have to send you back. Back? I know. Sister Agnes is very afraid for you. She's been talking to me. But I'm not afraid. You'll find what you're seeking. I'm not seeking the world.

[00:18:22]>> Some people can't escape from the world.

[00:18:25]You thought coming back here where you found happiness as a child would be a solution. It isn't. You know, I found peace. There can be no peace in a heart which is divided.

[00:18:38]But you'll look for the solution elsewhere. Perhaps you won't find it.

[00:18:42]Start all over again.

[00:18:47]But even without eyes, you must fight your own battles. You'll never win by running away.

[00:18:55]What am I to do? Flee your way. Seek until you find. Walk until you can run.

[00:19:05]We'll be praying for you.

[00:19:18]Not so fast. Not so fast.

[00:19:20]>> All right, Roser. I know every creek of these stairs. Hey, a minute. Let's look at you. I told you you ought to have let me put your lipstick on. Is it all right? Of course. You know the trouble with you buzzing.

[00:19:31]>> I wouldn't if you weren't so downright headstrong.

[00:19:35]>> Lydia Granny.

[00:19:37]>> Well, you look just wonderful, too. New paint.

[00:19:41]>> Only the window frame. Is the furniture still the same? My desk? Yours? You haven't met Millie who took my place.

[00:19:48]This is Lydia.

[00:19:49]>> I've been so keen to meet you, Miss Gar.

[00:19:52]I think you've been so brave.

[00:19:54]>> Doctor, she's here right on the tick.

[00:19:58]>> Livia.

[00:19:59]>> Simon.

[00:20:03]>> You look splendid. Little thinner perhaps. Come on in.

[00:20:09]>> Not yet.

[00:20:11]The guest of honor's chair is just where it used to be, facing the desk. I'm so happy you came straight to me.

[00:20:16]>> Simon, I thought perhaps you could find me something to do. Oh, >> why the hurry?

[00:20:19]>> I don't want to be a nuisance to people.

[00:20:21]>> You're not going to be a nuisance to anybody. I've got it all fixed.

[00:20:23]>> How?

[00:20:24]>> I'll tell you when I come back.

[00:20:25]>> Simon, you're not leaving me the moment I arrive.

[00:20:27]>> I shall be a minute.

[00:20:29]>> Simon, >> who's there?

[00:20:53]Lydia, as long as I live, I will never quite forgive you for trying to lose me.

[00:21:04]>> Paul, this is crazy. Darling, let me be yours.

[00:21:11]>> No, no, I can't have it this way.

[00:21:15]Simon's going to help me. There are plenty of things I can do.

[00:21:18]>> Yes, plenty.

[00:21:20]One of them is marrying me.

[00:21:23]>> It wouldn't be fair.

[00:21:25]>> Do you blind wife?

[00:21:30]>> I love you. Love you. I have waited and waited even though I thought you would never come back.

[00:21:37]>> I should have come.

[00:21:42]>> You will marry me because you love me.

[00:21:48]Didn't Simon once tell you I never take no for an answer?

[00:21:58]Heat.

[00:22:20]Heat.

[00:22:36]Hello Lydia. Hello Lydia. Hello Paul.

[00:22:43]>> Mother.

[00:22:44]>> Dear Paul, >> this is Lydia.

[00:22:47]>> Lydia, there are eight steps.

[00:22:52]Oh, but you are lovely child.

[00:22:54]>> I'm so happy to be here.

[00:22:56]>> And I am happy for you and Paul and for myself.

[00:23:00]This is Felicity, your sister-in-law.

[00:23:03]She has a lovely big son whom you will see tomorrow.

[00:23:06]>> Welcome to Chat Deereia. Thank you, Felicity. And this is your new father, the Konier, but call him >> enchanted, my dear. For your information, I am tall, good-looking in a disintegrating sort of way, and I am the wickedest man in France.

[00:23:24]>> Oh, nonsense. I have known at least two men in my life, far more wicked than it yet. Well, one anyway. Here is the Abimeon. A dear friend, >> my child.

[00:23:34]>> And here are the servants. This is >> Madame Mong.

[00:23:37]>> Madam S. Mad.

[00:23:39]>> I can Andre.

[00:23:41]>> Madame Riselle.

[00:23:43]>> Charlotte, welcome, madam. and Joseph.

[00:23:46]>> We are all charmed to have you with us, madam.

[00:23:50]>> Thank you. Have I met everybody now?

[00:23:53]>> Ah, not quite.

[00:23:55]There is still the pest resistance, Madam Elder.

[00:24:00]No religion, but our nearest neighbor.

[00:24:02]Do not be deceived by that soft voice.

[00:24:04]She is a young woman who inevitably gets what she wants.

[00:24:07]>> That's not true, and he knows it. I'm so very glad that Paul has found so lovely a bride.

[00:24:13]>> How kind of you. Thank you. But I'm sure Madame Deandereier must be very tired after her long journey.

[00:24:18]>> Yes, I am taking her upstairs now.

[00:24:21]>> You know that's the first time anyone's called me Madame Deondier.

[00:24:24]>> Oh, you will get used to it. Estelle, another one. Thank you. Rosa, she arrived last night. She is upstairs waiting for you.

[00:24:33]>> I'll join you soon, Lydia.

[00:24:35]>> Yes, here are the stairs.

[00:24:38]>> How are you, beautiful?

[00:24:39]>> Oh, Paul, she's lovely. You have my warmest congratulations. The stairs are very wide and so clean. But you will get used to these, too.

[00:24:47]>> Thank you. Of course. I should get used to everything.

[00:24:54]Well, they do say that we're all brothers under the skin. But if you could have heard that lot on the train jabbering in their foreign lingo. Not that I want to run them down.

[00:25:03]>> Where am I now, Rosa?

[00:25:04]>> You're the other side of the table, love. Better come back this way towards my voice.

[00:25:10]That's right. The doorway is right in front of you. What do you think of the people here?

[00:25:15]>> Oh, very polite spoken. Of course, I always take people as I find them. But when it comes to gathering all the servants together like a bunch of dumbies, mind that trunk. What about a servant named Joseph? Oh, that one.

[00:25:28]Handsome, but a tricky customer. Says he learned English from the American troops. It's not all he learned.

[00:25:36]>> Tell me about Verity Feo.

[00:25:39]Smart. Quite the lady.

[00:25:42]>> Who is quite the lady?

[00:25:43]>> We were just talking about Madame Mazal Fmont.

[00:25:46]>> Oh, very. She's just been talking about you.

[00:25:49]>> Oh, >> very complimentary.

[00:25:52]>> I'm glad.

[00:25:53]>> Do you like it here?

[00:25:55]>> Of course.

[00:25:57]>> Going to be happy.

[00:25:59]>> Always with you.

[00:26:01]>> I think we'll be dining alone together tonight in there.

[00:26:05]>> What makes you think that?

[00:26:08]I know my mother.

[00:26:20]>> Good night, Mu.

[00:26:20]>> Good night, Mu.

[00:26:21]>> Good night.

[00:26:22]>> Good night, Mu.

[00:26:22]>> Good night, madam.

[00:26:23]>> Good night, madam.

[00:26:24]>> Good night.

[00:26:24]>> Good night, madame. Good night, Mu.

[00:26:35]You know, before I met you, I thought I knew it all. How woman should speak, how she should dress.

[00:26:44]Now I realize I didn't know anything at all.

[00:26:48]>> I shaken your confidence.

[00:26:51]>> You've given me confidence in life, in truth, in eternity.

[00:27:00]I love you, Paul.

[00:27:09]>> For you, s I'll be back in one moment.

[00:27:49]Who's there?

[00:27:51]Is somebody there?

[00:27:54]Paul, who is it?

[00:27:59]Paul.

[00:28:01]Paul.

[00:28:04]>> Yes, darling. What is it?

[00:28:06]>> There's somebody here at the window.

[00:28:19]>> There's nobody here now.

[00:28:22]What made you think?

[00:28:23]>> Can't you smell the perfume?

[00:28:25]Very delicate perfume. The night is full of perfume.

[00:28:30]>> I'm sure I heard something.

[00:28:33]>> It could have been the breeze.

[00:28:36]>> Perhaps.

[00:28:38]What's Verite like?

[00:28:40]>> You seem to have Verit on your mind.

[00:28:42]>> What's she like?

[00:28:44]>> Intelligent, sophisticated, attractive. You're going to like her.

[00:28:50]>> Are you sure we're alone?

[00:28:52]>> Of course we are.

[00:28:53]>> I still have a feeling someone's watching.

[00:28:56]Nobody is watching us.

[00:28:59]>> Not us.

[00:29:01]Me.

[00:29:09]>> There she is.

[00:29:14]>> Bravo.

[00:29:15]>> Magnificent. You know, Ny, it is my firm belief that you can see better than I can.

[00:29:20]>> Thank you.

[00:29:20]>> The baby. He agrees with you, too.

[00:29:23]>> The baby. This is my little son, Gestav.

[00:29:26]He's very pleased to see you. Hello. Oh, no, Gustav. That scarf is not for you.

[00:29:31]He's always reaching out for bright looking objects and taking them, too.

[00:29:36]His father says he will land himself in jail before he can talk.

[00:29:39]>> He's a very handsome boy.

[00:29:41]>> Oh, how can you tell?

[00:29:42]>> I've leared to see with my fingers.

[00:29:44]>> All right, have it then.

[00:29:46]>> Oh, he will only eat it. He's a voracious child. His father says he will soon be as fat as a pig. Well, hello.

[00:29:54]Good morning.

[00:29:57]>> Hello, Jason. Want to gallop?

[00:30:01]>> Ah, good morning.

[00:30:03]>> Good day.

[00:30:03]>> You look like a fashion place. A real outdoor woman.

[00:30:07]>> Hello, Lydia. Hello, >> Paul. I want to show you where I laid down the new vines. You can see them from the lower terrace here.

[00:30:12]>> See you later. I'll come back for the ride, baby.

[00:30:16]>> And I want to talk to Lydia. May I please?

[00:30:19]>> Oh, no. No, you must stop chewing that scar. Oh, no. No, baby. I'm just kidding.

[00:30:24]>> You know where you are?

[00:30:26]>> Yes. The top of the steps.

[00:30:28]Oh, I wish you could see how beautiful it all is. Paul's described it to me.

[00:30:35]Anything I can do, anything to help. I want you to know that I am your friend.

[00:30:41]>> That's very kind of you, Verity. Not kind.

[00:30:45]Everybody wants happiness in this world.

[00:30:48]You and Paul seem to have found it. I'd like to help you to keep it.

[00:30:53]May I feel your face? Why not?

[00:31:09]You're lovely.

[00:31:14]I think I'll take Paul away on that ride.

[00:31:20]We're going down to the Cypress Walk.

[00:31:22]It's ever so lovely.

[00:31:24]>> I like her, Rosa.

[00:31:26]>> Hello, Vy. Are you ready?

[00:31:28]>> Yes.

[00:31:28]>> Let's get going, then. Have you been talking to Lydia?

[00:31:32]>> Yes.

[00:31:35]>> Good. I want you to be friends.

[00:31:37]>> Thank you. Guard her, Paul. Don't let her be hurt by anyone.

[00:31:41]>> Don't overdo your anxiety. She is a very capable person.

[00:31:44]>> Guard her all the same. Marriages carry responsibilities. Yours more than most.

[00:31:50]>> I think you're right, Vi. Maybe I shouldn't drive today. That's it. I'll stay here and look after her. Bye-bye.

[00:31:58]Joseph, take my horse and my company.

[00:32:01]Have a good ride.

[00:32:03]>> Come on, Joseph.

[00:32:09]>> Lady, uh, don't run away from me.

[00:32:12]>> Oh, I thought you were riding with me.

[00:32:15]So did she.

[00:32:27]He Heat. Heat.

[00:33:00]Heat.

[00:33:11]Heat.

[00:33:31]We'll go back.

[00:33:45]>> Find a stool on your left.

[00:33:47]>> Thank you.

[00:33:49]If it's the music that attracts you, continue steering the same course slightly to port.

[00:33:56]That's right.

[00:33:58]>> Who are you?

[00:33:58]>> Name of Max Volume with two Fs. Prefer this?

[00:34:04]>> Nice.

[00:34:06]>> In case you're further interested, I'm a very indifferent painter and I live in Cass and I've been invited over here for the day. Probably because the count thought that a fellow countryman might make you feel more at home. The card thought nothing of the kind. But having seen all of your canvases, it occurred to me that perhaps you could do with a square meal.

[00:34:22]>> Sir, you must be psychic. You >> mind if I take video off your hands?

[00:34:25]>> Frankly, sir, I do. She'll come back.

[00:34:28]>> Fine.

[00:34:32]>> I have sent Paul away on a wild goose chase to buy a crop of grapes that I already bought last week.

[00:34:37]>> Why did you do that?

[00:34:38]>> I wanted to show you around and I want to get to know you.

[00:34:42]>> Do you know where we are now?

[00:34:43]>> The corridor to the library.

[00:34:45]>> You don't need eyes.

[00:34:47]It is more of a picture gallery really than a library.

[00:34:52]In fact, you are now being scrutinized by 15 generations of Devandere females.

[00:34:57]>> Approving or disapproving?

[00:34:59]>> More curious. You are an unusual person from a deandier standpoint. You worked, did you not?

[00:35:05]>> Yes.

[00:35:06]>> As a hobby, of course.

[00:35:08]>> I needed the money. Anything wrong with that?

[00:35:11]>> No, no, no. Of course not. The idea only wives have always been more decorative than serviceable and not of course that you are not decorative or that they were always. Take my great great great grandmother the countest Alba for example. She died at the early age of 34 of what tradition says was dropsy but which was more likely downright overeating.

[00:35:35]Are you going to make Paul happy?

[00:35:38]>> I think he is happy.

[00:35:40]>> Of course. Of course. What a silly question.

[00:35:42]Now you are being inspected by an excellent lady, the wife of the illustrious Count Charles. The second wife, that is.

[00:35:49]>> What happened to the first?

[00:35:50]>> Oh, we do not ask. She did not quite conform to the Devandia standards. It is said that when she >> What did you want Paul to marry?

[00:35:58]>> Do you think I would attempt to direct my son's life?

[00:36:01]>> Yes.

[00:36:02]>> I like your faintness. We are going to be friends.

[00:36:06]>> I hope so.

[00:36:07]>> Yes. And this old reprobate thinks so too. the first cultivier. He fought in the third crusade. His left hand withered after the siege of Ak. He struck it off because he said he would rather have no hand at all than a physical infirmity.

[00:36:24]>> Then it's my blindness.

[00:36:27]You don't want me married to Paul because I'm blind.

[00:36:29]>> I never said that. If you think I was looking for some dull comparison, >> weren't you?

[00:36:35]>> Lydia, I admire your courage beyond words. If Ethion is showing her around, she could Oh, boy. Here she is. Paul >> over here, my darling, by the door. Do you mind if I take her away, father?

[00:36:49]>> Oh, by the way, I inquired about the grapes, and they told me you had bought the entire crop last week.

[00:36:55]>> Did I indeed?

[00:36:57]My memory is not what it was.

[00:36:59]>> Maybe not. Your hands are cold.

[00:37:01]>> I'm all right.

[00:37:03]>> Cigarette.

[00:37:04]>> Thank you. Extraordinary how helplessness can appeal to a man.

[00:37:10]>> It can also irritate a man given time.

[00:37:15]>> You will have plenty of time.

[00:37:18]Remember the illustrious Count Charles married twice.

[00:37:28]>> What was that? Why did he want to get you alone?

[00:37:32]>> Oh, your father hates our marriage. If you really believe that, I'll show you how wrong you are. George, will you please tell Madame Devontier why you are removing this carpet?

[00:37:42]>> Because of the party, madame. The dance tomorrow night.

[00:37:45]>> Thank you, John.

[00:37:46]>> Dance.

[00:37:47]>> You see, my father hates our marriage so much. He is giving a big party to celebrate it.

[00:37:52]>> How wonderful of him.

[00:37:54]>> Come, I'll show you the shape of the floor. Play us back.

[00:38:00]This do fine, but quicker. Let's have it quicker.

[00:38:04]Quick, Max.

[00:38:31]She dances so lightly like a spirit. H she is uh quite pretty.

[00:38:37]>> Well, thanks. I suppose you consider yourself a judge.

[00:38:41]>> Yes, I'm a good judge. You are not pretty.

[00:38:45]>> And who asked your opinion?

[00:38:48]>> But the magma fe by the door.

[00:38:52]That is the one for me.

[00:38:53]>> The one for you indeed. As though she'd look at you any more than I would.

[00:38:57]>> But you did, Rosa. When you first saw me, there was a look in your eyes that could only mean one thing.

[00:39:03]>> And you know what it was? Thinks he's the answer to a maiden's prayer. That's what I was thinking. Now the Englishman will miss your farot is going on the floor to miss your call.

[00:39:15]>> I think you've overstayed your welcome here. Do you mind if I cut in?

[00:39:18]>> Of course not. Go ahead. May I have the honor, Lydia?

[00:39:23]>> Hello, Ve.

[00:39:25]>> So, you lost her to Max.

[00:39:27]>> I like Maxi's night.

[00:39:28]>> They dance together beautifully. Oh, Paul, I swear one would never believe she is blind.

[00:39:34]>> Perhaps we shouldn't believe it.

[00:39:36]>> But of course, we shouldn't.

[00:39:39]Not unless it's forced upon us.

[00:40:09]It's a funny little looting tune.

[00:40:11]>> Yes, >> I'm so happy.

[00:40:16]It's called fa and the dancers and players are natives to the south. During the grape picking they go from wine festival to wine festival and they dance and play in the evenings.

[00:40:35]You like it?

[00:40:43]>> That's the end of it. They're all dancing off now like a seven times.

[00:40:59]>> My friends may share the me. Father is going to toast you. I want you all to take glasses. Everybody please take glasses.

[00:41:10]>> Champine Mr. Paul and for madame. Madame miss you. You'll have to answer the toast. Your glass is here. Feel it.

[00:41:18]Don't take it yet.

[00:41:24]>> Has everybody's glass been charged?

[00:41:29]>> My friends, this is one of the happiest evenings of my life, and I want my dear daughter Lydia to know it. So, will you please all join with me in welcoming one of the loveliest, one of the most sincere and friendly people who have ever honored the Devand family by becoming a part of it.

[00:41:52]Lydia >> to my sister Lydia. Thank you, Felicity.

[00:42:01]>> You know, wear your glasses.

[00:42:02]>> Oh, yes. And may I wish you happiness.

[00:42:05]Happiness to the bride.

[00:42:08]>> Happiness to the bride.

[00:42:12]>> We have to toast them back. I know.

[00:42:22]>> Hia. H.

[00:42:24]>> Answer the door, darling. Take your card.

[00:42:26]>> Yes.

[00:42:28]Thank you. Thank you all. If I may return the toast.

[00:42:36]Take mine. The sermons will say it is bad luck.

[00:42:39]>> Bad luck.

[00:42:40]>> Answer the toast, darling.

[00:42:44]>> To you all.

[00:42:48]>> May I say how very happy?

[00:42:52]>> Lydia.

[00:42:52]>> Lydia.

[00:42:57]>> Did it go on anybody's dress? I don't concern. It was nothing. So clumsy. I thought I knew all English. Oh, you danced with me. Paul, do you remember the way we used to?

[00:43:10]>> Lydia won't mind.

[00:43:12]>> Well, where's Lydia? She went down to the ter. Thank you, >> Paul. She's upset about the glass. We're all to blame. We should watch her more closely.

[00:43:21]>> Yes, I'll come back later.

[00:43:34]I think a pardon. Have you seen >> Hello, Paul. I followed Lydia out. I thought she might. A thought perhaps.

[00:43:46]Thank you, Max. So long, Lydia. Don't take that too much to heart.

[00:43:56]>> Why did you come out in the dark? How do I know it's dark any more than I know how I missed that glass?

[00:44:01]>> Come and dance with me, my darling.

[00:44:03]>> Paul, they said it was bad luck. The evening spoiled.

[00:44:09]>> My poor old darling. All that happened is that a class got upset.

[00:44:14]>> But I thought I knew where it was.

[00:44:17]I shouldn't have come here. I should have known what could happen.

[00:44:20]>> The first time anything's happened.

[00:44:21]>> But it won't be the last.

[00:44:23]>> Aren't you're being hysterical, >> Paul? For the first time, I'm afraid.

[00:44:28]>> For the what?

[00:44:30]>> Of the dark and what comes with it.

[00:44:34]That glass wasn't where I thought it was.

[00:44:37]Perhaps our happiness isn't where I thought it was.

[00:44:40]>> Look, if you haven't got sense enough to know that I love you >> in spite of my blindness.

[00:44:45]>> But I am blind. Worse than a or a withered hand a crusader would strike off.

[00:44:50]>> Who put that nonsense into your head?

[00:44:54]>> I'm sorry.

[00:44:56]I know everybody's being so kind, but I have a feeling I can't put my finger on it.

[00:45:05]Something or somebody's moving against me.

[00:45:10]>> Everybody here is encountered with you and I love you.

[00:45:16]>> Paul, you sure I'm not making you unhappy?

[00:45:23]>> Come and dance with me.

[00:45:29]By the way, Max is picking us up tomorrow morning and we are all going swimming in a cove near Lataya.

[00:45:36]>> Lovely.

[00:45:52]>> You move so quietly. So did madame when she altered the position of that wine glass.

[00:46:00]But the man has to admire such tenacity of purpose. It's probably time you left here, Joseph. I think I must talk to the contest of your impertinence.

[00:46:09]>> Madame must do what she thinks fit. I'd already have decided to resign my position to go to Khan or Mont Carlo >> as a paid dance host.

[00:46:18]>> If it pays, why not? Life is short. what there is of which to be good with good clothes, fine car such as yours.

[00:46:29]>> Do you think you're entitled to these things?

[00:46:31]>> A man is entitled to what he can get.

[00:46:35]I have a lot to offer just as you have a lot to offer.

[00:46:40]>> I am not offering anything, Joseph.

[00:46:44]Unless our interests coincide.

[00:46:47]>> I am sure they will, madam.

[00:46:56]Well, you always were obstinate. I suppose you always will be. I don't want you to hurt yourself, that's all.

[00:47:01]>> 5 6 7 8 9 >> 10.

[00:47:13]>> That was good.

[00:47:14]>> Here's something bad. I have to fly up to Paris at the end of the week. Leaving me here.

[00:47:20]>> You two lady.

[00:47:21]>> Just coming. It's Max and V. They come to fetch us. No, I'll be gone only a few days. Oh, by the way, Verit will stay here while I'm away to keep you company.

[00:47:31]>> But that's kind of her.

[00:47:32]>> Oh, she is a kind person.

[00:47:35]>> Come on. Come on. Half the day will be gone.

[00:47:38]>> Here we are.

[00:47:39]>> Don't forget your swimming dogs.

[00:47:41]>> No, >> I've got them. Flowers and all.

[00:47:43]>> I'll take care of them. Thank you, Rola.

[00:47:45]>> Have a nice day at the seaside, love. We will. Oh, and don't forget your woolly.

[00:47:49]Thank you.

[00:47:50]>> If you please, madame. You forgot your knitting. Uh, Madame Deo is most anxious that nothing dangerous should be left where if Gustaf can reach it.

[00:47:57]>> Of course. I'm so sorry.

[00:47:59]>> Well, there's no harm, D. I'll take it.

[00:48:02]>> Goodbye, dear.

[00:48:03]>> Goodbye.

[00:48:04]>> Goodbye.

[00:48:12]>> Hello there.

[00:48:15]Can you hear me? Hear me?

[00:48:19]>> Well, hello.

[00:48:22]>> I can hear you, >> Lydia.

[00:48:31]Lydia.

[00:48:37]>> What are they doing, Verity?

[00:48:39]>> Swimming towards the point. I think they're going a long way out.

[00:48:45]It's good to be alive.

[00:48:48]>> You know, Lydia, I envy you. You live in a dark world, and yet you have a capacity for enjoyment, which is I suppose it's because you're really happy. I love Paul.

[00:49:07]They're past the point now.

[00:49:12]Out of sight.

[00:49:15]I'm going to swim. Come in again. All right. I'd better not without Paul. I don't swim very well. And there are rocks, aren't they? I'll keep close. Do you?

[00:49:23]>> Do you think I might? You've got a partner.

[00:49:36]Can you see them? Not from here.

[00:49:39]Is there a current here? Backwash from the rocks. Keep away from them.

[00:49:51]Which way?

[00:49:53]Towards my voice. Don't lose me. I'm loving this. Which way now? Towards my voice. Towards me.

[00:50:05]This way.

[00:50:19]Am I still all right?

[00:50:24]Hey K, am I still all right?

[00:50:33]I don't know where I am.

[00:50:37]Heat.

[00:50:58]Heat.

[00:51:10]Heat.

[00:51:22]Heat.

[00:51:34]You're right. All right. What happened?

[00:51:38]I lost you to caught me. I thought I'd never get you.

[00:51:44]>> Lydia.

[00:51:50]Lydia.

[00:51:51]>> She's all right. Paul, >> you brought her in. I don't know how to think.

[00:51:58]But why did you go in without me?

[00:52:00]>> Oh, she's nearly out.

[00:52:01]>> I'll mind your own business.

[00:52:03]>> But for Vita, you would have been drowned.

[00:52:06]>> Listen, as long as you live, you'll never swim again. Do you hear me?

[00:52:13]>> Yes, I hear you, Paul.

[00:52:16]I still have the use of my ears.

[00:52:48]Good morning.

[00:52:50]>> Good morning.

[00:52:57]That's the Baron doll.

[00:52:58]>> Yes, darling. I thought you would like to wake up to some music.

[00:53:05]>> Look out, darling.

[00:53:08]>> Oh, you're going to Paris today. I forgot.

[00:53:10]>> In 5 minutes time. That's the reason why I woke you up. Only one week.

[00:53:18]They are coming nearer.

[00:53:20]Hel.

[00:53:32]What are they doing, Paul?

[00:53:33]>> They are dancing up the drive now.

[00:53:39]>> I love this tune.

[00:53:43]>> And now they are dancing around the players. It's very pretty.

[00:53:53]No, Lydia.

[00:53:56]Mrs. Dup's asking for you. She says she has to see you. Oh, I suppose she wants to say goodbye to you, Paul.

[00:54:02]>> Probably.

[00:54:03]>> Well, I don't think it's quite that.

[00:54:08]Felicity.

[00:54:10]Lydia, I'm sorry. And you know, I'm not one to make a fuss, but I have to speak to you when it's on my mind.

[00:54:19]You left your knitting needles in the garden again. No, >> little Gaff Gotham may scratch his poor little cheek. Of course, I know you're not like other people, and you can't be blamed for not saying that you're leaving things about, but there's no excuse for downright carelessness.

[00:54:34]>> Please, Felicity.

[00:54:36]>> Oh, those stupid dancers. I can't hear myself talk.

[00:54:40]I promise you, it is time to go to the airport. May we take your luggage?

[00:54:44]>> Yes, it's inside.

[00:54:54]I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Paul. It's very embarrassing for all of us, but I have to think of little Gustaf.

[00:55:00]Here's your knitting.

[00:55:02]Have a good trip to Paris, Paul.

[00:55:04]>> Thank you.

[00:55:04]>> It's all very well. The poor child might have lost his eyesight.

[00:55:08]>> Well, all you >> I didn't forget my needles. Not this time. Somebody must have put them there.

[00:55:14]But darling, who would want to hurt a baby?

[00:55:17]>> It's not the baby they want to hurt.

[00:55:20]>> Do you see how it is? Things keep happening. I don't know how.

[00:55:23]>> So, you don't remember leaving your needles? Well, it's only human.

[00:55:27]>> All right, let's drop the subject.

[00:55:30]>> I said drop it.

[00:55:34]>> Oh, my dearest. What's happening to us?

[00:55:37]Pin pricks irritation.

[00:55:38]>> I'm sorry I irritate you.

[00:55:40]>> No, it's not that. It's just a pardon, Mapora.

[00:55:49]>> It's just what?

[00:55:51]>> Well, the way I lost my temper on the beach.

[00:55:55]Oh, my darling, I love you so much.

[00:55:59]If ever I seem unreasonable, it's because I am so afraid you might get hurt.

[00:56:07]>> Nothing can ever hurt us if our love is strong enough.

[00:56:11]You have to go, Mr. Paul.

[00:56:13]>> Yes. Thank you.

[00:56:18]>> Goodbye.

[00:56:20]>> Think of me.

[00:56:22]Love me.

[00:56:24]>> You know I always will.

[00:56:52]Thank you. Thank you, doctor. Goodbye.

[00:56:54]>> Thank you, ma'am. A pleasure.

[00:56:58]>> Lydia. Well, hello there.

[00:57:01]>> It's Max, isn't it? Yes, that's right.

[00:57:03]>> What are you doing around these bars?

[00:57:05]Not ill. Never felt better.

[00:57:07]>> Good. We'll celebrate that at the Gro Cafe La. I look after her. Rosa, >> you have a coffee, Rosa, or or an apparent. Joseph, too.

[00:57:18]>> So, you will not have a drink with me.

[00:57:20]>> Sorry, but I forgot to bring my disinfectant.

[00:57:24]>> Do you mind if I say I've never seen you looking so happy, Steph?

[00:57:27]>> Thank you. I am happy.

[00:57:29]>> Good. I live here, you know, room above.

[00:57:33]Along this waterfront, I've painted fishermen of every color from green to bright vermillion.

[00:57:39]Marcel, >> yes, >> another past.

[00:57:41]>> What are you painting today?

[00:57:43]>> It's a view of the harbor. I think it's a view of the harbor.

[00:57:48]>> Max, I want to write a letter.

[00:57:50]>> Well, all you need is a pen, some paper, and >> Oh, I'm sorry.

[00:57:55]>> I can write. I'm not as helpless as that. But I'm never quite sure the lines aren't running into each other. Well, how about me writing it for you?

[00:58:03]>> Would you?

[00:58:03]>> Certainly. Marcel, writing paper.

[00:58:06]>> Yes, you.

[00:58:07]>> You can dictate.

[00:58:08]>> It's to Paul.

[00:58:11]>> Oh, >> why not? You know I love him. I shall be saying much more than that.

[00:58:16]>> Right you are. Thank you, Marcel. The pen is poised.

[00:58:22]>> My own darling, >> who I love more than >> whom I love with an M.

[00:58:31]whom I love more than I ever dreamed was possible.

[00:58:36]I'm counting the hours till you're with me again.

[00:58:40]>> With me again.

[00:58:42]>> I have something to tell you which is vital to our lives and to our future together.

[00:58:48]Sh.

[00:59:11]The letter was never finished nor posted. She placed it in her right hand bag and she keeps the bags in the small chest of drawers directly across the room from the fire.

[00:59:26]>> How do you know, Joseph?

[00:59:27]>> The maids know all that goes on in the Harrison.

[00:59:31]I know the maids.

[00:59:34]>> Thank you.

[00:59:35]>> You are forgetting a telegram.

[00:59:40]We make a good team, do we not? Very good, Joseph.

[00:59:49]>> Directly across the room from the path.

[00:59:58]>> I have a telegram for you from Paul.

[01:00:01]What does he say? Read it to me. It's from England. Sign Simon. Have an exciting matter to discuss with you and Paul. Are you coming to England soon? I wonder what he wants. I brought you a little present. Do you mind if I switch this over?

[01:00:19]Oh, it's the parent doll. Thought you'd like it.

[01:00:24]I look terrible.

[01:00:27]May I use the mirror? Please do.

[01:00:32]You're very kind, Verity.

[01:00:35]It is an attractive tune, isn't it? I've always loved it.

[01:00:47]It takes me right back to my childhood.

[01:00:49]One of my earliest recollections.

[01:00:56]For a moment, I felt you could see me.

[01:00:58]I'm afraid not.

[01:01:11]Lydia.

[01:01:13]>> Madame.

[01:01:14]>> Thank you, George.

[01:01:15]>> Su Paul is waiting upstairs.

[01:01:17]>> Paul, he's back.

[01:01:20]>> Careful, Lydia. You'll break your neck.

[01:01:22]>> I'm all right, Rosa. Anybody thinks he could see as well as Anything wrong?

[01:01:37]Paul.

[01:01:41]Paul.

[01:01:45]Paul, where are you?

[01:01:47]>> I'm here.

[01:01:49]>> Darling, I didn't expect you back as soon as this. I'm so very happy.

[01:01:54]>> You look as if you are.

[01:01:57]Aren't you going to kiss me? Put your arms around me.

[01:02:01]>> We are going away from here today.

[01:02:05]>> I can't see your face, but I know it's not happy.

[01:02:09]Something's happened I don't know about.

[01:02:11]>> Something has been happening that I didn't know about.

[01:02:14]>> What is it? What? What's the matter?

[01:02:16]Tell me.

[01:02:19]>> If you insist.

[01:02:22]>> What's that?

[01:02:23]>> It's a letter.

[01:02:27]My own darling whom I love more than I ever dreamt was possible. I am counting the hours till I see you again.

[01:02:35]There is something I have to tell you which is vital to our lives and our future together.

[01:02:41]Written by Max, his writing, his hotel paper, talking about your future and his.

[01:02:48]>> Go on, what else have you made of it?

[01:02:56]Come to me. Come to me as soon as you can.

[01:02:59]Did you go to him? Oh, why ask? I know Joseph took you there.

[01:03:04]>> He took me to Cassie's.

[01:03:07]How did you get that letter?

[01:03:08]>> Oh, does it matter?

[01:03:12]It was found with your bag. You must have left it around like you're knitting needles. It was given to father.

[01:03:19]I love you. Love you always.

[01:03:23]No signature.

[01:03:25]>> Not even Max's.

[01:03:26]>> Do you think he would commit himself on paper?

[01:03:29]>> No, he wouldn't.

[01:03:31]He wouldn't. And do you know why?

[01:03:34]Because his pen ran out of ink. Silly, isn't it?

[01:03:38]>> I'm glad you think it's funny.

[01:03:41]>> Paul. Paul. Who would write a love letter to a blind woman? Who'd read it to her?

[01:03:47]That letter was written to you by Max, writing for me. For me? Don't you understand that?

[01:03:53]>> Then why wasn't it busted?

[01:03:55]>> It wouldn't be a weak sermon.

[01:04:01]I took it home to sign myself. But your telephone, don't you remember? There was nothing in the letter I didn't say on the phone.

[01:04:07]>> Do you ask me to believe?

[01:04:08]>> I don't ask you to. You believe the wrong thing already. What does it matter what you believe?

[01:04:12]>> I know that I >> I know that I love you beyond suspicion or doubt or reason. I thought you loved me the same way.

[01:04:20]Now, you'll never be sure whether the child I'm going to have is yours. The child?

[01:04:25]>> Why do you think I begged you to come home? What did you think I wanted to tell you, >> Lydia? I think it's the truth.

[01:04:30]>> Nothing's the truth anymore. Rosa.

[01:04:35]Rosa.

[01:04:36]Rosa.

[01:04:38]Lydia. Lydia.

[01:04:41]Rosa.

[01:04:54]He went out into the garden. He looked very upset.

[01:04:58]I wish you couldn't make it up with him, do you, >> Rosa? It's not the quarrel so much as not knowing who caused it.

[01:05:06]If only.

[01:05:07]>> If there is something sly going on around here, it's up to Paul to help you find out what it is. Why don't we go and talk to him?

[01:05:20]Okay, that's my thumb.

[01:05:29]>> Oh, yes. I see. You mean the Bibia?

[01:05:33]Well, as we always said, But as long as we work together, they really believe we can achieve the desire of our speaker. Of course, no one has to leave.

[01:06:34]Yes, doctor.

[01:06:40]Madame is as well as can be expected.

[01:06:44]Madame La Contes will stay with her for a while.

[01:06:49]I'm sorry. There will be no child.

[01:06:56]Thank you, doctor.

[01:07:08]Who is it?

[01:07:10]It's Verity. Come in.

[01:07:15]>> I've been listening to the rain. It's stopped, hasn't it?

[01:07:18]>> Yes.

[01:07:20]The doctor said you were well enough to see me.

[01:07:24]>> Paul will be coming in soon.

[01:07:27]Lydia, you must be very gentle with him.

[01:07:29]He's very unhappy. He is.

[01:07:32]>> He wanted that child. He needs pity, too.

[01:07:36]>> Meaning I need it.

[01:07:38]>> Don't twist my words. All right. A tragic thing has happened and you have convinced yourself that something or somebody is against you.

[01:07:49]You've even felt that you are not wanted in this house. The house is waiting for me to go.

[01:07:54]>> You mustn't say that. Paul would never want you to go because he's fine and he stands by a bargain. even a bad one.

[01:08:02]>> Lydia, I am your friend and I tell you sincerely, Paul will never fail you again. Even if he has to suffer for it.

[01:08:13]>> It's Paul.

[01:08:14]>> Try to make allowances. It hasn't been easy for him either.

[01:08:19]>> May I come in?

[01:08:20]>> Yes.

[01:08:22]She's almost herself again.

[01:08:27]See you both later.

[01:08:50]I don't know what to say.

[01:09:16]Funny feeling, isn't it? To be at the mercy of forces beyond your control.

[01:09:21]Yes, >> Lydia.

[01:09:26]Somehow we lost each other along the way.

[01:09:30]Can't we find each other again?

[01:09:33]Forgive.

[01:09:35]>> What have you to forgive me for?

[01:09:37]>> You shouldn't have gone running around those terraces.

[01:09:41]Why did you?

[01:09:43]>> I heard your father. I know how he's always felt about me. One isn't afraid of what one knows. But he was talking with the other.

[01:09:51]>> What other? Or not this obsession?

[01:09:54]>> Is it an obsession? What if I'm right?

[01:09:56]>> Oh, darling, still starting a shadows.

[01:09:59]You must get this thing out of your mind. It can wreck both our lives.

[01:10:04]>> It won't wreck yours.

[01:10:08]Things haven't been easy for you, have they?

[01:10:12]>> I can't complain.

[01:10:15]I am going to guess he is to see Max. I think he's got right to the whole story and an apology too.

[01:10:23]>> If you feel it.

[01:10:25]>> Yes.

[01:10:28]Then we start again with all this behind us.

[01:10:32]>> It is behind us.

[01:10:35]I shouldn't worry about it anymore.

[01:10:39]>> I won't be long.

[01:10:49]Goodbye, Don.

[01:11:11]>> There is not a nip in the air, Josh.

[01:11:12]>> Yes, Mr. Oh, Joseph, will you come upstairs with me? I may be riding tomorrow morning, and I would like you to take my boots, and I have them boned.

[01:11:20]>> Yes, m, >> you might as well get the black pair, too. Well, Ladyia, there's nothing much wrong with them. Just get the uh the heels.

[01:11:36]Lydia, where are you?

[01:11:41]He has gone. Paul gone where? Oh, Paris, London, New York. She did not say.

[01:11:52]She only left word that it would be useless for you to try and find her.

[01:12:05]Attention please. He lingers flight to Dublin. Your passenger holding coach card.

[01:12:11]>> We're near the bookstore, aren't we, Rosa?

[01:12:13]>> Yes. Do you want anything, dear?

[01:12:16]>> Earling flight to Dublin.

[01:12:20]>> She's arrived. Doctor >> Lydia, I got your message. You know, you had me on Tinder hooks. What? With that husband of yours bringing from the south of France every half hour.

[01:12:29]>> You didn't tell him I was >> I didn't tell him a thing.

[01:12:32]>> Because you mustn't.

[01:12:33]>> Well, you forget about it. Now, sit in this chair by the fire and I'll tell you why I wanted to see you. You got my telegram?

[01:12:39]>> Yes.

[01:12:40]>> Remember when you were here last?

[01:12:42]>> Of course.

[01:12:44]Paul was >> there's somebody there now.

[01:12:51]Is it Paul?

[01:12:52]>> Not this time. This is Dr. Anatel Matier of the Loausan Clinic of Opthalmi. He's been studying your case.

[01:12:59]>> Dr. Matier, >> how big a chance will madame take in order to see again?

[01:13:06]I was told I had only one chance in a 100.

[01:13:10]>> The odds may be slightly shorter than that. If they are, say two in a 100.

[01:13:17]I will take the risk if you will.

[01:13:23]>> Do you mind if I feel your face?

[01:13:26]>> Are not my hands going to be more important?

[01:13:31]>> I guarantee nothing.

[01:13:34]The odds could be perhaps three in 100 Heat.

[01:14:13]Heat.

[01:14:28]Wake up for a little while now.

[01:14:32]Are you awake?

[01:14:34]Yes.

[01:14:36]Open your eyes.

[01:14:50]anything. Madam, I'm not sure.

[01:14:56]It's a sort of a haze.

[01:14:58]>> Open them again. Try The haze is moving.

[01:15:14]It's like veils falling away.

[01:15:19]You can see a hand.

[01:15:25]You can sleep now again.

[01:15:33]If you've succeeded, if I've succeeded, she can go back to the shadow and perhaps see the answer to her problems.

[01:15:58]>> Madam, we had no idea you were arriving.

[01:16:02]Joseph.

[01:16:03]>> But yes, madame. Is my voice so deferred?

[01:16:05]>> Huh? Your position seems to be different. Who promoted you into butler?

[01:16:09]>> Who should?

[01:16:11]>> Well, don't keep standing here in the cold. You come in too and shut the door.

[01:16:15]Is Mr. Paul upstairs?

[01:16:17]>> M Paul is not here, madame.

[01:16:20]>> Oh, where is he?

[01:16:22]>> He did not make me his confidant. Madame Lontes is in Paris with Madame Depo and the baby. Michelle Leont is far from well. But if you would care to step into the library.

[01:16:32]>> Good evening, madame.

[01:16:34]Who are you? I am Mino. Madame, of course, Lydia. Well, where have you sprung from? Very tense. Driving in on such a cold night. Why didn't you let us know? Oh, of course, the storm. The wires are down.

[01:16:49]I'm sorry I sound rather dazed, but your arrival is something of a shock.

[01:16:55]No, just unexpected. You look wonderfully well. Different somehow. But you must be cold and tired. Do come up.

[01:17:04]Joseph, look after Rosa and the chauffeer.

[01:17:06]>> I will see to it. My >> you remember the stairs, the curb here.

[01:17:10]Remember? Are you staying here, Verit?

[01:17:13]Or just helping out with the contest away in the corner. Somebody had to act as shhatling.

[01:17:20]Your senses are very acute. You realize the kitten was there before I even saw it.

[01:17:27]Just a few more steps.

[01:17:29]Your rooms are being repainted. I'm staying in the Empire suite. This way.

[01:17:37]In here.

[01:17:40]You know this room? I suppose. So, I'm not sure.

[01:17:44]Come over here by the fire.

[01:17:46]Is a set.

[01:17:49]Do sit down. Thank you, Verity.

[01:17:53]I've got some fresh coffee.

[01:17:58]You don't take sugar?

[01:17:59]>> No.

[01:18:01]>> And now, if it's not being too curious, what brought you back so suddenly?

[01:18:06]>> There's something I want to settle in my mind.

[01:18:09]>> To do with Paul? Not really.

[01:18:13]Not that old delusion about someone wanting to hurt you.

[01:18:17]>> Yes, my dear. Why worry about that now?

[01:18:22]Coffee. Thank you.

[01:18:24]>> After all, you and Paul can't get together again.

[01:18:27]>> Can't we?

[01:18:29]>> Well, where is he?

[01:18:32]>> He has business in New York. What made you hesitate? Did I? It wasn't intentional.

[01:18:39]He'll be away some time. Something to do with the wine exports.

[01:18:44]And then, of course, he has to readjust his life. I mean, a man has to think of his own future. In what way, Verity?

[01:18:52]Well, you disappeared so completely. For all he knew, you might have been dead.

[01:18:57]For all he knows, you could be dead.

[01:19:00]>> I suppose, sir.

[01:19:05]Let me understand one thing clearly.

[01:19:08]Is it that you intend to see him again?

[01:19:12]Don't take the word see too literally.

[01:19:14]>> If I could prove our unhappiness had been caused by somebody else, I'd move heaven and earth to make a fresh start with him.

[01:19:22]You know, for a moment I almost felt you could see me. You said that once before.

[01:19:28]The night you bought me the gramophone record. You have a good memory of that week? Yes.

[01:19:36]I remember every moment of it. It was the week my letter was stolen.

[01:19:40]>> Stolen? Really, Lydia? You're not suggesting that someone would deliberately >> Yes, I am. And I intend to prove it.

[01:19:50]Darling, you're over tired.

[01:19:56]Imagining things again.

[01:20:01]Now come along.

[01:20:03]Take your hat and coat off and have a little rest.

[01:20:07]I'll have a meal prepared for you.

[01:20:10]My bed is straight ahead through the door.

[01:20:17]So, it was you you can see that's the second time you've tried to kill me.

[01:20:22]You're out of your mind. It was you all along. The coven, the needles, the letter. You wanted Paul so much you stick nothing to get him. Of course, I wanted Paul. But he loved me. He never loved you. What sort of companion were you? Staying here spoiling other people's lives. Yours, of course. I hate you. I always have. I'm what Paul needed. What the family wanted for him.

[01:20:44]He only married you out of pity. That's a lie. If he wanted you at all, wouldn't he be looking for you now? Perhaps he is. He's going to New York. Then he hasn't left yet. He is looking. Where you going? Find him. You can't. I'll find you wherever he is. I want to >> Rosa. Rosa, we're leaving. Follow it.

[01:21:07]Ian.

[01:21:07]>> Lydia. Miraculous. Did you sense my present here?

[01:21:12]It's not possible. You can see.

[01:21:16]>> Yes.

[01:21:17]Now I can see you. I wonder why I was ever afraid of you.

[01:21:20]>> Oh, I have lost a little of my fire. I admit.

[01:21:24]As you see, I cannot give up. But I can ask you to stay with us for a little while.

[01:21:28]>> I'm leaving now.

[01:21:29]>> So you are rejecting us.

[01:21:31]>> Why not? I was never welcome in this house.

[01:21:33]>> You were blind. I wanted my son's wife to be perfect.

[01:21:37]>> Like Verite, you mean? Of course, you wouldn't mind the blindness of hate.

[01:21:41]hate. Oh, my dear Lydia, >> it might interest you to know that the perfect Verite has just tried to kill me for the second time.

[01:21:49]>> I hope that in regaining your sight, you have not lost your mind.

[01:21:52]>> I found my mind. That's why I'm going to find Paul.

[01:21:55]>> You're going to London, mate.

[01:21:56]>> London? Of course. Where else would he be? Rosa, hurry. I'll bring the bags.

[01:22:01]Well, if you like driving on a freezing night, backwards and forwards like a cat bricks. Come on.

[01:22:17]You are not looking as happy as you did.

[01:22:20]>> Is that because she is going to find Paul?

[01:22:22]>> He's leaving London tomorrow. He's going to Paris before he sails. She won't find him.

[01:22:27]>> Perhaps not.

[01:22:28]>> You sound as if you come down here to me.

[01:22:33]That's right. Come down here to me.

[01:22:38]I want to ask you a question.

[01:22:40]Do you think that Paul is leaving London because he is tired of searching or because he has given up hope?

[01:22:47]>> A man can't search for a lost wife forever.

[01:22:50]>> You love Paul, don't you? Where love is good a word as any other?

[01:22:53]>> You know that I do.

[01:22:54]>> You want to marry him and you will let nothing stand in your way.

[01:22:58]>> I've never pretended otherwise.

[01:23:00]>> No, I suppose not.

[01:23:03]But I never quite realized how far you would go.

[01:23:07]>> If you have nothing more interesting to do than to talk a lot of nonsense about >> Ah, but I have something more interesting to do. Uh, Joseph, bring me a telegraph form.

[01:23:18]You see, I want to send a telegram, but my hand is a little, you know, will you write it out for me?

[01:23:25]>> If you wish.

[01:23:27]Thank you.

[01:23:32]The Paul de Vandier Cages Hotel London and the message is I am leaving for London immediately.

[01:23:40]>> You are?

[01:23:41]>> Please continue. Wait for me my darling.

[01:23:44]>> You want me to go to London?

[01:23:45]>> No, no, no. I have not finished yet.

[01:23:46]There is still a signature.

[01:23:48]>> I know my name.

[01:23:49]>> Uh, but the name is your loving wife, Lydia.

[01:23:54]you.

[01:23:55]>> What sort of joke do you think this is?

[01:23:58]Do you think you can bring Paul and Lydia together?

[01:24:00]>> Just a thought.

[01:24:01]>> Well, I won't let you. Do you hear me?

[01:24:03]And if you try to go back on me now, you're going to lose because I don't vacasillate. I go for what I want in a straight line. And you can't send this telegram anyway. The wires are down.
