She's upstairs

in her bedroom,

asleep.

(PlANO PLAYlNG)

112

00:
12:14,601 -- 00:12:16,660

Where are they

keeping Ben's body?

113

00:
12:51,471 -- 00:12:54,565

Your father instructed me

to bury your brother's

effects with him.

114

00:
12:55,108 -- 00:12:56,700

lt seems a shame.

115

00:
12:58,545 -- 00:12:59,842

Thank you.

116

00:
13:01,381 -- 00:13:03,474

l wouldn't,

sir. lt's.. .

117

00:
13:04,818 -- 00:13:06,752

l missed his whole life.

119

00:
13:41,154 -- 00:13:45,750

MONTFORD:
What if

it wasn't a beast at all,

but a cunning murderer?

120

00:
13:46,260 -- 00:13:48,751

Someone who bore a grudge

against one of these men.

121

00:
13:48,862 -- 00:13:51,797

To misdirect

the authorities,

he kills the men,

122

00:
13:51,899 -- 00:13:53,389

and then he

tears up the bodies

123

00:
13:53,500 -- 00:13:55,627

to make it look

like a wild beast

was responsible.

124

00:
13:55,736 -- 00:13:57,931

Ridiculous!

Who would go

to such lengths?

125

00:
13:58,038 -- 00:14:00,529

What about that

gypsy dancing bear?

lt could have done it.

126

00:
14:00,641 -- 00:14:02,734

(SCOFFS)

That mangy thing?

127

00:
14:03,477 -- 00:14:05,536

Kill three men?

l doubt it.

128

00:
14:05,812 -- 00:14:08,246

l saw the bodies

with my own eyes.

129

00:
14:09,049 -- 00:14:12,314

Unnatural wounds.

Most unnatural.

130

00:
14:12,953 -- 00:14:14,944

Made by

a fell creature,

l say.

131

00:
14:15,055 -- 00:14:17,046

Damn gypsies wandering

the countryside,

132

00:
14:17,157 -- 00:14:19,387

bringing their

woe and deviltry

with them.

133

00:
14:19,493 -- 00:14:22,326

They show up,

and two weeks later

this happens!

134

00:
14:22,429 -- 00:14:25,364

My guess is Ben Talbot

went to their camp

135

00:
14:25,465 -- 00:14:27,433

to have it off

with a gypsy whore.

136

00:
14:27,868 -- 00:14:29,028

The bear gets

hold of him,

137

00:
14:29,136 -- 00:14:30,967

and they dump

what's left of him

in the ditch!

138

00:
14:31,071 -- 00:14:32,766

Got nothing to do

with the gypsies.

139

00:
14:35,066 -- 00:14:37,057

Twenty-five

years ago now,

140

00:
14:37,769 -- 00:14:39,327

me Pa found him.

141

00:
14:39,804 -- 00:14:42,034

Quinn Noddy

and all his flock.

142

00:
14:42,140 -- 00:14:45,234

Brains and guts

and God-knows-what

143

00:
14:45,343 -- 00:14:47,868

lying all over the moor

for a quarter mile.

144

00:
14:48,246 -- 00:14:50,578

And, Quinn,

the look on his face.

145

00:
14:52,183 -- 00:14:54,242

Like he'd been

eaten alive.

146

00:
14:55,486 -- 00:15:00,014

Whatever did it

was big, had claws,

147

00:
15:00,124 -- 00:15:02,217

and didn't mind

a load of buckshot.

148

00:
15:02,994 -- 00:15:09,331

After that, me Pa went home

and melted down

me Ma's wedding spoons

149

00:
15:10,301 -- 00:15:12,599

and cast silver bullets

on them.

150

00:
15:14,839 -- 00:15:19,833

Wouldn't leave the house

on a full moon from then on.

151

00:
15:27,585 -- 00:15:30,884

He thought it was a werewolf.

152

00:
15:34,292 -- 00:15:35,725

l still say

that bear's to blame.

153

00:
15:36,294 -- 00:15:38,694

You'd think the Talbots

would've learned

their lesson, eh?

154

00:
15:39,030 -- 00:15:40,895

Consorting with the Romas.

155

00:
15:40,999 -- 00:15:44,093

Right. Remember that

black-eyed Salome

the old man married?

156

00:
15:44,202 -- 00:15:47,069

Went crazy up there

in the ward, killed herself.

157

00:
15:47,171 -- 00:15:50,470

She was a gypo whore queen

or some such, wasn't she?

158

00:
15:50,575 -- 00:15:51,542

LAWRENCE:
Yes.

159

00:
15:52,143 -- 00:15:53,610

She was crazy

160

00:
16:00,151 -- 00:16:02,881

for coming to this

shithole you call a town.

161

00:
16:03,288 -- 00:16:04,482

What did he say?

162

00:
16:04,989 -- 00:16:07,514

You're in your drink, boy.

163

00:
16:10,995 -- 00:16:13,395

Get him out of my tavern, Nye!

164

00:
16:14,432 -- 00:16:15,399

Come on, lad.

165

00:
16:15,500 -- 00:16:16,797

lf you want to do

something about it,

166

00:
16:16,901 -- 00:16:18,300

l'll be outside.

167

00:
16:19,937 -- 00:16:21,564

My mother wasn't a whore.

168

00:
16:28,346 -- 00:16:30,246

Lawrence Talbot?

170

00:
16:47,365 -- 00:16:48,627

Good evening.

171

00:
16:48,733 -- 00:16:51,600

Please join us.

lt's good to see you

up and about.

172

00:
16:53,237 -- 00:16:56,206

Refreshed, recovered

and as enchanting as ever.

173

00:
16:56,808 -- 00:16:58,139

Please, join us.

174

00:
17:01,446 -- 00:17:03,004

Good evening, Miss Conliffe.

175

00:
17:03,114 -- 00:17:04,138

Good evening.

176

00:
17:05,950 -- 00:17:07,941

What a pleasant surprise.

177

00:
17:09,620 -- 00:17:12,714

May l recommend

the baked eel?

178

00:
17:13,491 -- 00:17:16,517

Singh has outdone

himself this evening,

haven't you, Singh?

179

00:
17:18,663 -- 00:17:20,893

Something plainer.

180

00:
17:20,998 -- 00:17:21,987

Thank you.

181

00:
17:24,402 -- 00:17:27,565

l was a moment ago

telling my son

182

00:
17:27,672 -- 00:17:31,039

that the telegraph system

does reach us here

in lonely old Blackmoor.

183

00:
17:33,244 -- 00:17:36,407

Do you find your home

much changed, Mr. Talbot?

184

00:
17:39,150 -- 00:17:42,085

Blackmoor does seem

rather the same as l left it.

185

00:
17:42,320 -- 00:17:43,719

How so?

186

00:
17:44,255 -- 00:17:48,055

The villagers,

they still have

the same wild ideas.

187

00:
17:48,159 -- 00:17:52,220

Yes, well,

they're a provincial lot,

l must say,

188

00:
17:53,064 -- 00:17:56,033

ignorant and superstitious

to a worldly man

such as yourself.

189

00:
17:56,134 -- 00:17:58,932

We're savages

at the ends of the earth.

190

00:
18:00,805 -- 00:18:02,739

l didn't intend

to start a squabble.

191

00:
18:03,107 -- 00:18:08,636

All l'm saying is that

you dismiss the natural man

at your peril.

192

00:
18:08,746 -- 00:18:09,713

That's all.

193

00:
18:09,814 -- 00:18:12,977

l find your insecurities

quite strange, Father.

194

00:
18:13,184 -- 00:18:16,711

No, you mistake that

for my self-awareness.

195

00:
18:16,888 -- 00:18:19,823

And how comfortable

are you in your skin,

may l ask?

196

00:
18:20,024 -- 00:18:23,187

One can get

used to anything.

197

00:
18:23,294 -- 00:18:24,283

Excuse me.

198

00:
18:41,579 -- 00:18:44,275

You know, Lawrence,

l've never understood

what it is that you do,

199

00:
18:44,382 -- 00:18:46,543

pretending to be

other people.

200

00:
18:46,784 -- 00:18:50,117

But l understand

you're highly celebrated

and famous for it.

201

00:
18:50,455 -- 00:18:53,447

Perhaps one day

l'll see for myself

what all the fuss is about.

202

00:
18:53,558 -- 00:18:55,617

l think your mother

would've liked that.

203

00:
18:55,726 -- 00:18:58,354

She loved

you and your brother

with all her heart.

204

00:
18:58,529 -- 00:19:00,326

Why did she do it?
