''Sir Edward saw the sorrow
in his daughter's eyes. . .
:24:39
. . .but he knew
that family honor must prevail.
:24:42
Nobility was not to be trifled with.
:24:45
'l beg of you, Charlotte,' he said.
:24:48
'Marry Sir John in the spring,
as he has asked.' ''
:24:51
Thank you, Lavinia.
:24:53
Sara, you may take your turn.
:25:06
''Charlotte said to her father,
'Father, you are right.
:25:10
l must put away my foolish fancies
and childhood wishes.' ''
:25:24
But l simply won't do it.
:25:26
l'm sorry, Father.
:25:28
When l marry, it'll be for love.
:25:30
And with that,
Charlotte ran from the house.
:25:34
Waiting outside was
the handsome stable boy, Pierre. . .
:25:37
. . .whom Charlotte secretly adored.
:25:39
Together they escaped to the coast
and quickly set sail for Tahiti.
:25:44
When they were halfway there,
their ship was attacked by pirates!
:25:49
Rather than be eaten alive. . .
:25:51
. . .they threw
themselves into the sea.
:25:55
As they began to drown. . .
:25:56
. . .they held each other close,
and swore undying love.
