:27:01
Vous parlez bien.
Merci.
My mother was French.
:27:04
A French mother?
:27:06
Now, that's altogether
too romantic for a governess.
:27:09
Who was she?
Have you heard
of the Montmorencys?
:27:14
Who has not?
:27:17
So, you're an impoverished aristocrat.
:27:20
Pity.
I had you down for an adventuress.
:27:24
And are they mutually exclusive?
:27:26
Oh, please tell me there's something
disreputable in your past.
:27:30
Well, my father was an artist.
:27:33
Ah, that's better.
A starving one, I hope.
:27:36
Absolutely ravenous.
:27:39
Who's ravenous... besides me?
:27:41
Horrocks? When's dinner?
Any minute now,
Sir Pitt.
:27:45
Good.
I'd best excuse myself.
:27:47
Come along, girls.
:27:49
- Is Miss Sharp not to dine with us?
- Well, don't ask me. Ask Pitt.
:27:54
Mm.
Nephew?
:27:56
I hope she's not banished
in my honor.
:27:58
You know I am nothing
if not democratic.
:28:01
It's no great sacrifice
in the cause of peace.
:28:05
Of course,
Miss Sharp must dine with us
if you wish it, Aunt.
:28:08
Dinner is served!
:28:11
Good!
Come along, my dear.
You'll sit by me.
:28:15
And after dinner,
we shall abuse the company.
:28:19
Really,
the hoops she makes
us jump through.
:28:22
I don't mind, Mama.
I like Miss Sharp.
Mm.
:28:26
Caesar liked Brutus
and look where it got him.
:28:31
- ¤¤All these and all Thy other gifts may...¤¤
- Pitt!
:28:36
Amen.
:28:40
Aunt Matilda,
you are the guest ofhonor.
:28:44
Um, what shall we drink to?
:28:46
Better food and a warmer room.
:28:49
Should we not drink to peace at
last... with Napoleon safe on Elba?
:28:54
To the men who put him there...
to Wellington and Nelson.
:28:58
Wellington and Nelson.
