Do you suppose Jefferson
has left any French brandy?

:10:05
Let's see.
:10:13
May I get you some claret cup?
:10:15
Oh, yes. Thank you.
:10:23
She's gone to the best schools
in the city,

:10:26
she's had the finest training
I could get her, music and dancing.

:10:29
She's sat with me evenings on end.
:10:31
I've tried to make conversation,
give her some social adeptness.

:10:35
I've given her freedom wherever
I could. The result is what you see.

:10:38
An entirely mediocre and defenceless
creature with not a shred of poise.

:10:43
Austin, you're so intolerant.
You expect so much.

:10:46
You remember her mother, Liz?
:10:49
Her mother who had so much
grace and gaiety.

:10:52
This is her child.
:10:55
Austin, no child could compete with
this image you have of her mother.

:10:58
You've idealised that poor dead woman
beyond all recognition.

:11:02
You are not entitled to say that.
:11:05
Only I know what I lost
when she died.

:11:09
What I got in her place...
:11:23
Catherine, what are you doing here?
:11:25
I'm waiting for Quintus Seabury.
:11:27
Well, don't wait here, dear.
Make him look for you.

:11:58
Dancing was the one thing we
disagreed about, the Reverend and I.
