:48:00
As a matter of fact, that's why I'm here.
I want to talk to you.

:48:03
Perhaps when you're finished in here,
you'd come into the garden.

:48:06
Is it about this afternoon?
I saw the Commissioner here.

:48:08
Jeffries? Yes, he was here.
He and Maxwell.

:48:11
They're in a great stew about it.
:48:13
Seems those people up at the houmfort...
:48:14
won't stop drumming and dancing
till they've gotten Jessica back...

:48:17
and finished their ritual tests,
something of that sort.

:48:21
For her own safety, Jeffries and Maxwell
want Jessica sent away to Saint Thomas...

:48:25
to the asylum.
:48:27
- It might be best.
- Maybe.

:48:30
But Wesley insists she stay here.
:48:32
But he hasn't the right.
:48:34
He hasn't any legal right,
if that's what you mean.

:48:37
But he says that I am responsible
for Jessica's illness...

:48:40
that I deliberately drove her insane.
:48:43
You couldn't have done that, Paul.
:48:45
I don't know.
:48:47
I've gone over it and over it,
and I don't know.

:49:36
I want you out of it.
I want you to go back to Canada, Betsy.

:49:39
Why?
:49:41
Because of Jessica. Because of myself.
:49:43
Because I don't want you
to be made miserable and unhappy.

:49:46
But I want to stay.
:49:48
I'm afraid it's not what you want.
I want you back in Canada.

:49:51
Naturally, as my employer,
you have the right to dismiss me.

:49:54
Don't, Betsy.
You know that isn't what I mean.

:49:58
You remember the first night I saw you?
