You're weak and easily influenced.

Those who are

are not easily followed.

You make this family to shame.

Go to your room.

To your room.

I'm disappointed, Caxton.

I had expected more after all these years.

Your employment is terminated.

You get one month salary

to compensate.

You can not think, Thomas.

The Farrar about 2 days.

Somebody has to drive home.

- A valet takes it over.

A valet?

After all their hospitality?

I stand by my decision.

- The Gresham come ...

... The Carberry's, Northbrook:

A disaster.

Tell them.

- Cancel?

It took time before they accepted.

I barely know them.

They come in a chaos.

- Why you need from strangers?

Because I try to build something.

I try to build a life,

that is to you?

Now put me to shame.

What have I done wrong?

You save a lot.

I can take one period of notice.

If I may.

Until a successor is found.

- No way.

However I are entitled to a favor?

After so many years of service

is not too much to ask?

Yes.

The answer is no.

It's like me in a crow's nest

look to the sea.

When I was young,

I wanted to like Papa to the sea.

Not anymore?

- I am a blind girl.

The Navy does not want me.

- Become 's explorer.

Travel the seven seas.

- Is that possible?

Somebody will do,

why not you?

Nothing is impossible,

not something you really want.

What are you doing?

- I carve our initials.

Later they say:
That was

the explorer and her friend.

What would say Sefton

if he would see us here?

I ask myself that same question.

Thank you, sir.

If more incidents followed,

you are responsible.

It would surprise me

if not I would get the blame.

Mary dear, do not think ...

- No, I can not get the idea.

If I go thinking I am crazy.

You leave me here alone years, while you

tig plays with the French.

You can do more than establish gambling.

- What could that be?

Visit Neighbors

I do not like that?

They think I'm strange, unreliable.

Shall I stay home?

Fans dyeing, bobbin lace,

the minister help? Sure.

I do not want you're bored.

- Then wait a disappointment.

Both of us.

The truth is

we do not match.

That is certainly my fault?

That fault lies with no one,

or right to us both.

We thought we were happy

could be, but it is not.

It's too late to do something about it here.

Those who climb up Jacob

in the oak?

He plays with a village boy,

and not Susan?

Why Boggis that matter?

What do they do?

A village boy?

Recognize your ladies like daughter?

That is not possible.

- It should not, that's right.

Why? She is ...

- Blind?

That bothers her anymore.

Was this the intention

when you took the foundling?

Come here.

- Father?

Not angry. You can not climb

in a dress. Pants is practical.

I dress for myself, and I'm back a lady.

- She can climb.

The dress was my idea.

- Say that you're not angry.

Do not be mad at her.

- I'm not angry.

I'm not angry.

I am angry at anyone.

Got better

After the departure of Caxton?

Unfortunately, he did not leave.

He was there when we heard

that the captain had his ship.

Oh, the custard.

He should have waited.

If a sailor was called,

He could not wait.

Hurry, they are there, Caxton.

Everything is in place, ma'am.

If you want to go to your rooms,

We serve tea at 17.00.

Ask Miss Susan to come

with a matching dress.

And Jacob?

- Send him back to the stables.

We need him today

no longer needed.

Your mother wants you to joins her,

you get dressed.

Not you, Jacob.

There's tea in the kitchen.

She treats you horribly.

- Go ahead.

Here, Susan.

Is this charming appearance

the dear Susan?

Greeted Lord Farrar, dear.

What a reprimand, sir.

- My sister wants no offense.

She is blind.

- What a shame, Mrs. Oldknow.

You've never mentioned.

What a torture.

You're right, Mrs. Carberry.

A blind child is born a torment.

Come baby, come sit with me.

- Of course.

Jacob.

- Oh dear.

Is she all right?

Do not worry, I am.

- You could go to the stables.

Excuse me, but the captain wants

I note that Miss Susan.

If nobody likes it.

- Did anyone but me out of trouble.

That makes your wife for anyway?

- That would be too time-consuming.

You have a true protector, Susan.

All the ladies here so envy you.

You have wearied us with your chatter.

Go ahead.

Perhaps you have seen,

your gallant knight.

Children are a blessing,

but luckily mine flown.

Their chatter and wobbling

Jobs even suggests patience to the test.

Jesus loved children.

But he and Joseph were carpenters,

not nearly as sophisticated as ours.

Excuse me, I got some control

before we can dress.

Dinner is

served at 20.00 hours.

You're a cat, Lady Gresham.

She had worked so hard

these people here to get ...

... But they just looked

down at her.

I changed my mind,

I wear the pink taffeta.

The blue silk dress for tomorrow.

I want the rubies set in gold filigree.

Not the diamond setting.

Oh, dear. Come up here, ma'am.

Caxton was the thief.

He has stolen

when he was fired.

His room was searched, there was nothing.

Then it was too late.

Mary had to cancel the party,

but the theft had to be resolved.

And the guests did not feel

as soon as another long journey.

So there two days later

fourteen guests at the table.

Your loss

do not ruin our appetite.

Everyone delights

in someone else's misfortune.

The Germans have an 'n word.

- Maybe you win tonight.

With a little luck.

I feel very happy tonight,

in no area.

We, and the servants,

be questioned tomorrow.

My maid is upset.

- That seems unnecessary.

But exciting.

- Our hostess is tormented.

Fortunately, something

her civility break.

Have you no pity?

She cares more about her jewelry

than her child.

What is it, Caxton?

What's going on?

I'm sorry madam,

but the house is on fire.

What?

What's that noise?

- Do not, sir.

Northwood, Gresham,

bring the ladies out.

Jonathan help me.

Thomas, help me.

I would not rush ...

... But I think we better off

on the lawn.

Step aside.

Susan, signed by Jacob.

Arthur, George, the house is on fire.

Make the men woke up, get buckets.

There is fire, Jacob.

- What's going on?

Grab every bucket there, men.

Wake up, Jacob.

- What?

The house is on fire.

Look.

The servants know the house better,

let them save the stuff.

Are there bags and buckets?

- Boggis takes them.

What happens?

- We make a chain to the pond.

We try to contain the fire.

- Why does no one?

Fast. Quick, men.

- Mrs.

I had them the Vermeer

must be caught.

Caxton, could you just ...

Where is Miss Susan?

Where is the child?

Mary, she is still in the house?

You can not.

- Where is she?

No idea.

Have you seen her?

Where would bring her Nellie?

Go find Mrs. Gross.

Why do you do for trouble?

It is worthless.

Come with me.

Has anyone caught the scales?

Have you seen the girl?

- Here is Nellie.

Have you seen Susan?

- I was in the kitchen, she would come.

Stop. Where is her room?

- I know.

Have someone get a ladder.

- No one can through.
