:49:01
- Has something happened to my niece?
- No, sir.
:49:04
Though we do bring news of a death.
:49:06
Don't tell me it's her brother's death?
:49:10
That would be too welcome to be true.
:49:12
Sorry to disappoint you, Uncle.
:49:15
But it will not be the last unhappy
development for you this night.
:49:18
You know nothing.
:49:19
Every word I will say to you
is based on information...
:49:22
from an unimpeachable source.
:49:25
This man...
:49:27
who'd sell his soul for a drink?
:49:30
This is a good beginning.
:49:32
To tamper with a fellow like this,
whose every word is a lie!
:49:35
Who made me a fellow like this?
:49:37
If I'd sell my soul for a drink,
why wasn't I a thief?
:49:41
Swindler?
:49:43
Here, you, Nickleby!
:49:48
You say they tampered with me.
:49:51
Who was it tampered
with the Yorkshire schoolmaster...
:49:55
to take Smike away from them?
:50:01
You're listening now, aren't you?
:50:05
You are an eavesdropping,
drunken scoundrel.
:50:10
I deny the charge,
but ask regardless, what of it?
:50:14
I'm back, Mr. Nickleby.
:50:20
What have we now?
:50:24
Do you know who this is?
:50:26
We are satisfied
Mr. Brooker speaks the truth.
:50:29
A common thief.
:50:31
A beggar. A convict!
:50:35
Were you not once married?
:50:41
What?
:50:55
There's no crime in that.
:50:57
But you desired the marriage
to be kept secret...
