Mrs. Van Ryn.

Mrs. Van Ryn...

Suddenly it sounded strange

to hear you called that.

Is that all you're taking with you?

It's all I brought with me... from home,

except a black dress.

The way you just said "home"...

as if you never had any other.

Have I ever?

You answer that.

You know, Ma once said she felt she

shouldn't have let me come to Dragonwyck...

that she was afraid.

You couldn't marry a dream, she said.

- Do you dream much, Jeff?

- Sometimes.

Some dreams are very real, I guess.

So real that they

get confused with reality.

And then when you wake up

and look around...

you find yourself saying, "What am I

doing here? How did I get here?

What has this to do with what I am

and what I want?"

Then I guess you make up your mind

you've had a nightmare...

And you go crawling to your ma and pa.

So it's back to Greenwich now, Miranda...

with never another thought

of anything here.

Well, Greenwich

isn't so far away after all.

Perhaps you'll be passing

through sometime, Jeff.

Would next week be too soon?
