:04:03
Mr. Nickleby, I am no longer sure
I can make an investment with you.
:04:08
- Because of my nephew?
- Because of your treatment of him!
:04:12
And his sister!
:04:16
When I think of her leaving
the theater that night...
:04:19
I feel sick to recall it.
:04:23
Surely there is another way for me
to expand my fortune...
:04:27
than to enrich the tormentor...
:04:30
of these children.
:04:58
I see, from your eyes, you remember me.
:05:02
If the change you see in me,
from so long ago, does not move you...
:05:05
It does not.
:05:06
...then let the knowledge that I am
as helpless and destitute as a child.
:05:10
- Any man can earn his bread.
- How?
:05:14
Would you show me the means?
:05:16
I did, once.
:05:19
Not again.
:05:20
It's 20 years and 5 months
since you and I fell out.
:05:24
Do you remember the cause?
:05:26
You claimed part of the profits
of some of my business...
:05:29
alleging that you had brought it to me.
When I refused you...
:05:32
you threatened to reveal some...
What was it you said?
:05:35
Hold I'd gained over you in your absence.
:05:37
Rifling through my files, I suspect.
:05:40
So I had you arrested
for an advance you had not repaid.
:05:43
£30. That's all I owed you.
:05:46
Indeed, it was more.
:05:48
There was the interest.
:05:51
Seven years I have been gone,
under the most crushing conditions...
:05:55
to return as you see me now,
ready to renew my offer...
:05:58
but on terms much easier for you
than before.
