- Charlotte!
- My dear Lizzie.
:53:18
I've come her to tell you the news.
Mr Collins and I are... engaged.
:53:23
- Engaged?
- Yes.
:53:30
- To be married?
- What other kind of engaged is there?
:53:36
For heaven's sake, Lizzie,
don't look at me like that.
:53:40
I should be
as happy with him as any other.
:53:43
- But he's ridiculous.
- Oh, hush.
:53:45
Not all of us can afford to be romantic.
:53:49
I've been offered
a comfortable home and protection.
:53:53
There's a lot to be thankful for.
:53:55
I'm 27 years old.
I've no money and no prospects.
:54:00
I'm already a burden to my parents.
:54:04
And I'm frightened.
:54:06
So dont judge me, Lizzie.
Don't you dare judge me.
