The Old Dark House Page #3

I envy. I admire.

Oh, yes, envy me, fine. But not admire me.

Well, I ... I do not admire me. I know that not everyone is making money.

But let me tell you something. I am a young man, see? ...

Married ... with a girl from Manchester, beautiful as anyone,

the only thing in the world that matters me ...

... It dies. It was. My bosses give a party. We invite ...

... A very special day for us. I bought my first suit ...

Lucy ... and has a new dress. A cotton dress ...

Lucy ... it seems that was not very well at the party,

especially among women, despised. Nothing concrete, you know ...

Just ... thought the dress was not very good. Lucy is concerned ...

You ... into his head that his guilt will not be successful ...

... Well, you can not believe it but I know that's what killed her.

That's what I did to start making money.

I swore I would kill those guys and their wives,

they had neither a kind word for Lucy.

And I was crushed. At least the majority.

Once you've started making money, you can not stop ...

... Especially if you're like me, you're not good at anything else.

But we do not know what Gladys has to be better than us. Mrs.. Ducane ...

... Why not tell them your real name?

My real name ... is Perkins.

A pretty name.

I can be this or that, but I can not pretend to be what I'm not.

I think it's you. Still a little offensive.

Let Mr. Penderel. I can take care of myself.

If I do not do it now, I can not do it anymore.

I was not trying to say anything for you, Bill ...

Not pretend to be ... what I'm not. I'm not that stupid for that.

These people recognize one when they see a showgirl ...

... And, by the way, not very good.

If I were better at my job, I would not be spending the weekend with you.

No. I take it back. Also I would.

You are kind. We're good, but ...

Morgan is drinking. I knew this night would begin.

'Where's he get? -From me there. Can not you stop him?

It is now in the kitchen, drunk. Pretty drunk.

Who is Morgan? Is the guy who served us the table?

Yes. ... Morgan is the butler.

He looks at me as if I were to take hair.

Hello.

Hello.

Well? Have you come to help me see God's wrath?

No. I come to thank him on my side.

It has been an honor, Mrs.. Ducane.

Perkins for you.

Thank you, Perkins.

Pawn this old mansion for a drink.

Hmm ... and me.

And we will succeed! I have some whiskey in the car. I forgot.

Wait here and go for it. No, I'll go with you.

Better stay here under cover.

The car is in the stables and will soak.

Okay, but not late.

Mr. Penderel?

Hello. Why are you here? It was becoming.

I've come to find.

Hey, hey. What is it? What happened?

Nothing. In fact, nothing. I'm a little scared, that's all.

Someone closed the door in my face.

It must have been the wind. Not. I know what is the wind.

It is quiet, but he could lie down.

Yes, sure. Well, what you want is a drink of this.

Thank you.

I'm feeling a little more human.

This looks like a family reunion.

He's right.

Look at this.

Come on, take them out.

It seems I've spent most of the afternoon changing his shoes.

It should have been a nurse.

Yeah, only good nurses do not drink whiskey bottle.

The storm is worse than never, right?

Worst.

It had to happen. Gone is the light.

I think now it's gone completely. Overnight at twilight.

Okay, but surely there are some sailing somewhere.

Can I do something with lights, Mrs.. Femm?

No. Nobody understands our system except Morgan.

And as an electrician, Morgan moment is not qualified.

Why not you got a light?

No. We have no lamp.

What did he say? Nothing, nothing major.

No? Nothing important? It turns out that this time I heard.

They want a lamp.

Give them big. Has fuel. We used the last time the power went out.

Come on, Horace. You know what it is.

I do not know where he is. You could go you, Rebecca.

It's too big for me. If you do not know where I'll tell you.

You know as well as I do. It is on the small table on the top floor.

Do you know where the top floor, Horace?

At least you will know that there is a top floor. Oh, but you're so incredulous.

He's up, Horace. Top. Below the roof.

Yes, of course. I remember now. But I think it is a bit heavy for me.

I do not think the can down the stairs.

Why not say what happens, Horace? It happens that you're afraid to ride alone.

Go with it. Tenga. I do not know why I bother ...

Well ... we'd be sitting in the dark.

Better to go up, right? Yes. I guess so.

It will not take.

Very well. Miss. Waverton should not worry about me nervous.

You. Would be a better guide.

This is my room.

Yeah?

There are a couple of things that I think would like to see.

I sure would like a lot. But it taught me another time.

We have to find the lamp. Yes.

Hey, why should we bother to fetch the lamp?

We could wait here a few minutes, and say that we have found. Or it's broken.

I find no reason.

Yes, but why should we care so much about the lamp if you do not want?

We have said that the head down, why we were not going to do?

Yes, but why should we do if we want? I do not want.

This is absurd.

Did you hear that?

I heard something.

What was it?

Was it Morgan. It is drunk. You will be making a fuss down the kitchen.

I thought the noise came from above. Anyway, are we on the lamp?

I wonder if I excuse not to come with you. I'm not very strong.

There are many steps. I should have said before, but you know, love itself ...

You will find it above the small table at the end of the landing two floor up.

I guess it's not too heavy to lower myself.

Oh, not at all. In fact it is fairly light.

I see.

Thank you, thank you very much.

You. Has opened, right? Well now you go and close it. We will close it. I can not.

Going to close what?

The rain is coming. The flood is rising.

We will all get wet if it is not fast.

It refers to the window of his room. I think I've opened.

Come on. You've opened. You can shut.

Okay, Ms.. Femm. I'm going to close it.

Mr. Penderel! Mrs.. DuCane!

Mr. Penderel! Mrs.. DuCane!

Is Morgan. It is there, at the foot of the stairs.

Take the candle. Stay there.

Go away! Get out of here!

Is he dead? No, I see him breathing from here.

It is only stunned.

You will be awake in a minute, but it sure will fall asleep. It is very drunk.

Oh, Philip, this house is horrible.

Is not it very nice, no?

Listen, Margaret, something is going up.

Oh, Philip. No more horrors.

No, this is not horror. It was a voice calling behind a door.

A faint voice, like a child. I think I should go and see what happens.

You'll have to come with me. I never want to leave you alone.

Morgan will be fine. Give me your hand, darling.

Oh, Philip. 'What is it? Sit a while dear.

Thank you.

It Well, what happened then? Then the war ended.

What happened to the girl? 'Oh, the girl I left forgotten?

'The girl I was in love. 'The reason is that she married, Gladys.

What a b*tch.

No, on the contrary, a girl of good reputation. Now, let's talk about you.
