00:15.705 --> 00:16.825
I've been thinking,

00:16.905 --> 00:20.545
and I'm going to move the gray mare
in with the brumby again.

00:20.625 --> 00:23.105
After all, it was her bloodline
that produced Beau.

00:23.185 --> 00:25.385
- And we need to let it…
- …flourish.

00:25.465 --> 00:29.945
This has nothing to do
with Mrs. Klein's silly prediction.

00:30.665 --> 00:33.425
- The post, Mrs. Bossier.
- Oh, thank you, Betty.

00:37.785 --> 00:38.905
Oh, Sybylla.

00:38.985 --> 00:41.665
- There's post for you from <i>The Bulletin</i>.
- Yes.

00:45.545 --> 00:47.265
- May I be excused?
- Yes, yes, yes.

00:50.665 --> 00:51.705
Sorry, Betty!

00:52.345 --> 00:53.745
I don't know how many more

00:53.825 --> 00:56.745
sad breakfast faces I can bear.

00:56.825 --> 00:58.585
She'll bounce back.

00:59.145 --> 00:59.985
Look!

01:00.825 --> 01:01.905
A letter from Julius.

01:01.985 --> 01:05.065
- He remembers we're alive after all.
- Don't be petty, Helen.

01:11.025 --> 01:13.185
Did you know Julius knew Everard Grey?

01:13.785 --> 01:15.385
- The governor?
- That's Edward Grey.

01:15.465 --> 01:16.825
This is his nephew.

01:16.905 --> 01:19.225
Julius says that they met in London.

01:19.305 --> 01:22.065
- And they're traveling back together.
- Nice for some.

01:23.465 --> 01:26.025
Apparently he's told him
about my breeding program,

01:26.105 --> 01:28.585
and Everard might be interested
in buying the colt.

01:28.665 --> 01:30.425
Well, well, he's a smart man.

01:30.505 --> 01:32.665
Grey. Is that the same family
who owns the bank?

01:32.745 --> 01:33.745
Yes.

01:33.825 --> 01:37.305
And a very large cattle station
in New South Wales.

01:38.185 --> 01:39.865
Perhaps we found our match.

01:39.945 --> 01:42.025
For your colt <i>and </i>Sybylla.

01:42.105 --> 01:45.945
Yes, well, they do both deserve
to find the right person.

01:46.025 --> 01:48.345
This letter was written two months ago.

01:48.425 --> 01:50.705
I know. It's arrived quite quickly.

01:50.785 --> 01:53.145
- It says they're due today.
- Today, today?

01:54.025 --> 01:55.705
- Today.
- Today!

01:55.785 --> 01:57.265
Betty!

01:57.345 --> 02:01.625
<i>But if you see me there</i>

02:01.705 --> 02:06.225
<i>Oh, don't be so scared</i>

02:06.305 --> 02:08.185
<i>From that day…</i>

02:14.065 --> 02:17.705
<i>I'm just here to say that life is…</i>

02:17.785 --> 02:19.305
No, no.

02:19.865 --> 02:20.745
No!

02:21.425 --> 02:22.705
No.

02:23.225 --> 02:24.745
What's all this?

02:29.305 --> 02:30.345
"Dear Miss Melvyn,

02:30.425 --> 02:31.505
we regret to inform you

02:31.585 --> 02:34.585
that we won't be publishing
your story at this time."

02:34.665 --> 02:37.185
"Despite having
some clarity of expression…"

02:37.265 --> 02:38.905
They mean for a girl.

02:38.985 --> 02:41.865
"…the editors feel
that your story lacks veracity."

02:42.665 --> 02:47.025
Nell, if my story had a man's name on it,
they would never question my expertise.

02:47.625 --> 02:49.345
What did they think of Cora?

02:55.265 --> 02:59.625
"It seems unlikely
that a woman can possess so many skills"?

03:00.225 --> 03:01.625
Idiots.

03:01.705 --> 03:04.225
- Nell!
- Does that mean you're not getting paid?

03:04.305 --> 03:05.185
Correct.

03:05.265 --> 03:07.265
- Nellie!
- What are you gonna you do?

03:07.345 --> 03:09.585
- What do you do when you fall off a horse?
- Never have.

03:09.665 --> 03:10.905
You get right back up.

03:11.425 --> 03:13.625
- Why didn't you answer?
- I heard you coming.

03:13.705 --> 03:15.905
Your uncle is coming back,

03:15.985 --> 03:18.345
and he's bringing a friend
to set you up with.

03:19.065 --> 03:20.345
- How do you know?
- I listen.

03:20.865 --> 03:22.505
And he might buy that ugly fella.

03:22.585 --> 03:24.265
- I need more time.
- Me too.

03:24.345 --> 03:25.185
You've got none.

03:25.265 --> 03:28.025
He's coming today,
and they want you back at the house.

03:35.985 --> 03:38.545
This is a hurdle. It's not a finish line.

03:46.905 --> 03:48.985
Wait! Syb!

03:50.025 --> 03:53.505
So, we'll have roast lamb tonight
with your special mint sauce,

03:53.585 --> 03:54.705
followed by trifle.

03:54.785 --> 03:57.185
Julius prefers my custard apples.

03:57.265 --> 03:58.825
I have never heard him say that.

03:58.905 --> 04:01.585
He goes on about
Mrs. O'Brien's custard apples, Mother.

04:01.665 --> 04:03.705
We'll have apples tonight,
trifles tomorrow.

04:03.785 --> 04:06.185
And when you are done here,
check the bedrooms.

04:06.265 --> 04:07.865
Mrs. O'Brien, please.

04:09.505 --> 04:12.065
Did you do all this before I arrived?

04:17.105 --> 04:19.385
- So what's Julius like?
- Uh…

04:20.425 --> 04:21.665
He's fun.

04:22.185 --> 04:23.985
Mother's favorite, clearly.

04:24.545 --> 04:28.625
Even though he never stays at Caddagat
long enough to take it off her hands.

04:28.705 --> 04:30.985
She should give it to you.
You do all the work.

04:32.665 --> 04:33.985
Sons inherit.

04:36.865 --> 04:38.225
Men get everything.

04:39.545 --> 04:40.385
Syb.

04:42.625 --> 04:44.465
Did something happen at Five Bob?

04:44.545 --> 04:45.665
Why do you ask?

04:45.745 --> 04:47.945
Well, that cushion's taking a beating.

04:48.025 --> 04:50.825
Also, you've been a bit off
since you got back.

04:52.265 --> 04:53.505
Harry lied to me.

04:53.585 --> 04:56.465
If omission's a lie,
and I think we can all agree it is.

04:57.025 --> 04:58.025
He's engaged.

04:59.105 --> 05:00.345
Really?

05:00.425 --> 05:01.425
To whom?

05:01.505 --> 05:03.065
Her name's Blanche.

05:03.145 --> 05:04.345
Blanche who?

05:04.865 --> 05:08.345
They haven't made the announcement,
but Augusta says it'll be any day now.

05:13.785 --> 05:15.225
I'm so sorry.

05:15.745 --> 05:16.905
Did you have feelings?

05:17.865 --> 05:18.865
Why do you say that?

05:19.905 --> 05:21.705
Well, otherwise, why would you care?

05:24.385 --> 05:26.945
We will find someone to match your spirit.

05:27.585 --> 05:29.305
He just has to be a good man.

05:30.785 --> 05:32.025
How can you tell?

05:33.865 --> 05:35.345
That's why I'm here.

05:36.945 --> 05:39.305
Does anyone in this house
still read the post?

05:39.385 --> 05:40.225
Helen!

05:41.065 --> 05:42.065
Mother!

05:42.585 --> 05:43.945
Anyone home?

05:47.945 --> 05:49.745
There she is.

05:49.825 --> 05:51.985
Hells Bells!

05:52.785 --> 05:55.505
- Ah!
- You can put me down. Put me down!

05:56.065 --> 05:58.585
- Did you miss me?
- It's been quieter without you.

05:58.665 --> 06:02.025
Then I've arrived just in time
to save you from Mother.

06:02.105 --> 06:04.465
Promises, promises.

06:04.545 --> 06:05.585
- Nellie, hey!
- Julius!

06:05.665 --> 06:06.825
- Great to see you!
- Hey.

06:06.905 --> 06:07.745
Julius.

06:07.825 --> 06:08.825
Oh!

06:09.985 --> 06:13.945
- The Queen of Caddagat.
- Don't be silly, Julius.

06:14.025 --> 06:16.505
- My darling.
- Aw.

06:16.585 --> 06:18.345
Ev! What are you doing back there?

06:18.425 --> 06:20.465
- Come and meet the family.
- Yep.

06:24.425 --> 06:25.385
Mrs. Bossier.

06:26.705 --> 06:27.665
Everard Grey.

06:28.185 --> 06:29.905
Oh.

06:30.945 --> 06:33.265
These are just chocolates,
but they are from Paris.

06:34.425 --> 06:37.265
<i>J'adore </i>French chocolates.

06:39.665 --> 06:40.505
Ladies.

06:40.585 --> 06:42.825
Welcome to Caddagat, Mr. Grey.

06:42.905 --> 06:44.145
Please, call me Everard.

06:44.665 --> 06:46.865
And who is this?

06:46.945 --> 06:48.945
Do you read our letters? It's Sybylla.

06:49.465 --> 06:50.625
Lucy's girl.

06:51.145 --> 06:51.985
Sybylla.

06:52.065 --> 06:54.625
Well, what a surprise.

06:56.345 --> 06:57.465
Wow.

06:57.985 --> 06:58.985
Now I'm looking at you,

06:59.065 --> 07:02.105
I can see a lot of Lucy
hiding away behind those eyes.

07:02.185 --> 07:03.985
What is that? Some mischief?

07:04.065 --> 07:06.985
It's mostly concealed fury.

07:07.065 --> 07:09.065
So much of Lucy.
Where is she? Is she here?

07:09.145 --> 07:10.505
No, just Sybylla.

07:11.705 --> 07:14.705
Let's go inside.
You must take us as we come, Everard.

07:14.785 --> 07:16.345
You're in the country now.

07:23.705 --> 07:25.545
It's good to be home.

07:25.625 --> 07:27.865
Absolutely delicious, Mrs. O'Brien.

07:27.945 --> 07:29.905
I've been dreaming of your lamb roast
for months.

07:29.985 --> 07:32.625
Well, you can't trust those Italians.

07:32.705 --> 07:34.305
I couldn't agree more.

07:34.385 --> 07:36.465
There's an ambush of garlic in every meal.

07:36.545 --> 07:38.785
- Why's he so loud?
- Never in my kitchen.

07:38.865 --> 07:40.625
That's a tremendous comfort to me.

07:40.705 --> 07:42.825
- Julius, stop shouting.
- Stop!

07:42.905 --> 07:45.105
Ah. I grew up in a barn.

07:45.185 --> 07:46.905
That's why the opera's wasted on you.

07:46.985 --> 07:48.545
- Opera wasted on <i>me</i>?
- Yes.

07:48.625 --> 07:50.745
No. My travels have changed me, Helen.

07:50.825 --> 07:52.225
- I--
- I adore opera.

07:52.305 --> 07:53.225
- No.
- I do.

07:53.305 --> 07:55.305
- What?
- In fact…

07:55.385 --> 07:56.425
Oh no.

07:56.505 --> 07:59.105
- Stop.
- It's come over me.

07:59.185 --> 08:00.025
Julius!

08:04.985 --> 08:06.105
Rupture a lung.

08:06.745 --> 08:08.385
I miss the theater in London.

08:08.465 --> 08:10.065
<i>You </i>like the theater?

08:10.145 --> 08:11.425
Always underestimating me.

08:11.505 --> 08:13.425
I've just invested
in a new theater in Sydney.

08:13.505 --> 08:14.985
- Really?
- Mmm.

08:15.065 --> 08:17.185
It's called the Alhambra. It's very grand.

08:17.265 --> 08:19.705
We'll stage operas for Julius.

08:20.945 --> 08:22.465
And Australian plays.

08:22.545 --> 08:23.985
Australian storytelling.

08:24.505 --> 08:26.705
Exactly. Our stories on the stage.

08:26.785 --> 08:28.505
And people will pay for that?

08:28.585 --> 08:30.145
I hope they'll come in droves.

08:30.665 --> 08:33.185
Perhaps even you'll want to come
to my place, Mrs. B.

08:33.265 --> 08:34.225
- "Mrs. B"?
- We'll see.

08:34.305 --> 08:37.945
I'm still not convinced
the theater is a respectable place for me.

08:38.025 --> 08:40.225
It's a new century.
Times are changing, Mother.

08:41.145 --> 08:44.265
- In fact, would you play us a ragtime, Ev?
- Oh.

08:44.345 --> 08:46.705
- Please.
- Please?

08:47.305 --> 08:48.505
May I?

08:49.185 --> 08:50.985
Why not? Why not?

08:51.505 --> 08:52.345
Twist my arm.

08:52.425 --> 08:54.385
- You'll love this.
- Really?

08:54.465 --> 08:57.105
- It's popping up over Europe.
- I hope the piano's in tune.

09:10.225 --> 09:11.705
Julius!

09:15.025 --> 09:16.025
Yes!

09:16.905 --> 09:17.785
Isn't it wonderful?

09:17.865 --> 09:18.785
Please.

09:18.865 --> 09:21.345
- Come on, you wave your arms around.
- I don't know.

09:21.425 --> 09:23.905
You go sideways.

09:23.985 --> 09:24.945
Shall we?

09:25.025 --> 09:25.985
What?

09:26.505 --> 09:27.745
- Mother.
- Oh no.

09:28.345 --> 09:30.305
Mother, please. How can you resist?

09:30.385 --> 09:31.225
Come on.

09:31.305 --> 09:32.625
- He's on his knees.
- No.

09:32.705 --> 09:33.785
No, no.

09:33.865 --> 09:36.785
- Mother.
- You seem happier this evening.

09:36.865 --> 09:39.865
- Show me again.
- I've decided to rise above rejection.

09:40.705 --> 09:41.905
Might I steal this dance?

09:41.985 --> 09:42.825
Take her from me.

09:42.905 --> 09:44.425
- Something to show you.
- Take her.

09:45.145 --> 09:46.145
Something like…

09:46.225 --> 09:47.985
You can't escape me. Come on.

09:48.065 --> 09:49.825
Old school. Let's do old school.

09:50.625 --> 09:53.745
- That's not a real dance, Uncle J.
- This is how it goes, Syb.

09:53.825 --> 09:55.065
This is.

09:55.145 --> 09:56.585
- Whoa!
- Whoa!

09:58.825 --> 10:03.505
Imagine having an entire theater
hanging off your every word.

10:03.585 --> 10:04.785
Intoxicating.

10:05.305 --> 10:07.145
I'm Sybylla Melvyn.

10:07.665 --> 10:09.905
Welcome to the Alhambra.

10:12.665 --> 10:14.705
If you're gonna dream,
make yourself useful.

10:19.345 --> 10:20.785
So you like this Edward now?

10:20.865 --> 10:21.865
Everard.

10:22.705 --> 10:24.425
And I like the sound of his theater.

10:29.745 --> 10:30.785
Hey, Nell.

10:34.625 --> 10:35.465
Charlie.

10:35.985 --> 10:37.185
Morning, miss.

10:47.985 --> 10:49.985
I wasn't expecting to see you today.

10:50.785 --> 10:51.785
Clearly.

10:53.545 --> 10:54.465
Are you decent?

10:54.985 --> 10:56.025
Not yet.

10:58.345 --> 11:00.105
You don't have to wait, Harry.

11:01.225 --> 11:02.385
I want to.

11:07.145 --> 11:08.145
Decent.

11:13.825 --> 11:15.625
I like what you've done with your hair.

11:17.785 --> 11:21.065
Glad to see that you and Charlie
made it out alive from Empire Day.

11:22.265 --> 11:25.305
Yeah. Sergeant Baker
sorted that out a few weeks ago.

11:25.385 --> 11:26.385
Indeed.

11:27.385 --> 11:28.505
Could you tell your aunt

11:28.585 --> 11:30.625
that <i>The Bulletin </i>rejected my story?

11:31.745 --> 11:33.425
Syb, I'm so sorry.

11:33.985 --> 11:34.825
Why?

11:35.345 --> 11:36.385
Doesn't matter.

11:37.505 --> 11:39.465
I'm learning to live with rejection.

11:44.305 --> 11:45.465
This is Beau.

11:45.545 --> 11:48.425
He has a nice sloping shoulder.

11:48.505 --> 11:50.105
Good length of rein.

11:50.185 --> 11:52.545
Ah. Excellently sound.

11:52.625 --> 11:54.385
And most importantly,

11:55.065 --> 11:56.385
a kind eye.

11:58.505 --> 11:59.705
Harry Beecham.

12:00.465 --> 12:01.825
I wondered if I might see you.

12:01.905 --> 12:02.945
Everard.

12:03.025 --> 12:03.905
Hal!

12:04.425 --> 12:05.945
- Julius.
- Great to see you.

12:06.665 --> 12:08.465
- You two know one another?
- Hardly.

12:08.545 --> 12:10.665
I know Harry through Blanche Derrick.

12:10.745 --> 12:11.745
How is she?

12:12.585 --> 12:14.145
Terrific, as far as I know.

12:14.225 --> 12:15.785
She's the catch of the season.

12:15.865 --> 12:17.185
But her heart is set on this one.

12:19.185 --> 12:21.305
Mrs. Bossier, we're here to see your colt.

12:21.385 --> 12:22.945
Absolutely. Here he is.

12:23.985 --> 12:24.825
Yup.

12:28.225 --> 12:31.505
Well, he, um,
is certainly a handsome fellow.

12:32.545 --> 12:34.945
I think it's no exaggeration to say,

12:35.025 --> 12:37.345
we're looking at the future
of the Australian stock horse.

12:37.425 --> 12:39.145
He's certainly solid.

12:39.225 --> 12:40.505
A better word is "hardy."

12:41.025 --> 12:43.185
He's also resilient, and he's brave.

12:43.265 --> 12:45.105
Sybylla, we don't need a thesaurus.

12:45.185 --> 12:47.305
How does he take to new commands?

12:47.385 --> 12:48.465
Smart as.

12:48.545 --> 12:50.745
He's got more heart
than any horse I've trained.

12:50.825 --> 12:52.865
Nell's dad was the most talented horseman
I ever met.

12:53.465 --> 12:55.545
Sadly passed. A good man.

12:55.625 --> 12:56.665
Indeed.

12:56.745 --> 13:00.945
We'll be very sad to see him go,
but he is well worth the price.

13:01.025 --> 13:03.025
Buy him, Ev.

13:03.105 --> 13:07.545
Uh, Theodore Hardwicke
does like his thoroughbreds.

13:07.625 --> 13:09.745
- He's my father's agent.
- I know Theodore.

13:09.825 --> 13:11.425
He used to work for my husband.

13:11.505 --> 13:13.065
Oh, so you know his taste.

13:13.865 --> 13:15.985
- Indeed.
- Let's do a stockman's challenge.

13:16.065 --> 13:17.665
We'll get Nell on the colt

13:17.745 --> 13:19.705
against Jim
on Caddagat's best thoroughbred.

13:19.785 --> 13:20.705
Yeah, I'm up for it.

13:20.785 --> 13:21.945
Give us your best, Jimmy.

13:29.505 --> 13:31.145
Is that you, Sybylla?

13:35.425 --> 13:38.345
Everyone is out there
taking credit for Nell's work,

13:38.425 --> 13:40.145
and you're keeping the farm afloat.

13:40.225 --> 13:42.985
- Please don't start.
- A man would be telling the whole world.

13:43.065 --> 13:44.065
That's all I'm saying.

13:44.145 --> 13:46.025
There's a letter here from your sister.

13:47.065 --> 13:49.105
Let's hope things are better
at Possum Gully.

13:56.265 --> 14:00.385
- "Dearest Syb, there's no point…"
- There's no point sugarcoating it.

14:00.465 --> 14:01.625
Papa's been reckless again.

14:01.705 --> 14:03.825
I told you I was seeing McSwat.

14:03.905 --> 14:07.305
To work out a payment plan,
not to borrow more.

14:07.385 --> 14:10.385
Sometimes you have
to spend money to make money.

14:10.465 --> 14:13.305
Well, I suppose it's better
than selling off your daughter.

14:13.385 --> 14:15.905
- Keep it down!
- I know you feel foolish about Harry.

14:15.985 --> 14:19.025
I promise I won't tell anyone
about what happened at Five Bob.

14:19.545 --> 14:21.065
You're a special person, Syb,

14:21.145 --> 14:24.385
and I'm desperate for you
to find a love match.

14:24.465 --> 14:27.265
Don't be like that, Lucy.

14:27.345 --> 14:29.385
But perhaps don't take too long.

14:38.945 --> 14:39.945
Come on.

14:41.745 --> 14:44.905
- Come and take a seat.
- Honestly. I haven't had a cup of tea yet.

14:44.985 --> 14:47.985
But this will definitely make you happy.

14:48.065 --> 14:49.025
Sit.

14:51.105 --> 14:52.345
I have a plan

14:52.425 --> 14:55.225
to get Everard Grey to notice me.

14:55.305 --> 14:58.545
Oh. Now you have my attention.

14:59.145 --> 15:03.585
Imagine a small private stage,
a select audience of family and friends,

15:03.665 --> 15:05.745
the lighting is beautiful,

15:05.825 --> 15:07.865
and I step up.

15:07.945 --> 15:12.905
Everard sees me in a setting
that he loves so much, the theater.

15:12.985 --> 15:15.465
- And then I begin to recite.
- Oh no.

15:15.545 --> 15:16.425
- No, wait!
- No, no.

15:16.505 --> 15:17.745
Wait!

15:18.305 --> 15:19.305
Please sit down.

15:19.385 --> 15:21.545
I'm a different person now.

15:21.625 --> 15:23.865
I would never embarrass you
like that again.

15:24.385 --> 15:26.065
This will be the perfect surprise.

15:26.145 --> 15:27.065
Sybylla.

15:27.145 --> 15:30.825
Why can't you just wear
a lovely dress and a charming smile?

15:40.505 --> 15:42.105
Everard is a particular man.

15:42.185 --> 15:45.345
If he'd been looking for
someone like every other girl,

15:45.425 --> 15:46.985
he would be married by now.

15:50.105 --> 15:53.585
When is this surprise spectacle
supposed to happen?

15:54.345 --> 15:56.905
The evening after you get
a huge prize for Beau,

15:56.985 --> 15:59.545
because Nell is gonna win
that stockman's challenge.

15:59.625 --> 16:00.945
That is true.

16:05.065 --> 16:07.065
I suppose there's no point in pretending

16:07.145 --> 16:08.305
to be someone you're not.

16:09.665 --> 16:10.665
But, Sybylla,

16:11.185 --> 16:12.105
I swear--

16:12.185 --> 16:14.185
I couldn't be more in earnest.

16:14.265 --> 16:16.025
I promise.

16:19.465 --> 16:20.305
You approve?

16:23.185 --> 16:24.905
Now may I have my breakfast?

16:32.425 --> 16:34.305
He's giving me the evil eye.

16:34.385 --> 16:35.425
Don't look, then.

16:37.625 --> 16:38.865
Where are my girls?

16:38.945 --> 16:41.225
Mum! Oh, where did you come from?

16:41.305 --> 16:44.745
A little birdie told me
there's a stockman's challenge this week.

16:44.825 --> 16:45.665
Mum!

16:45.745 --> 16:47.145
Get out from there, you.

16:47.225 --> 16:50.225
Oh! I can't believe you're here.

16:50.905 --> 16:54.025
I thought you might want this.

16:56.105 --> 16:57.185
Dad's watch, Nell.

16:58.465 --> 16:59.305
For luck.

16:59.905 --> 17:01.425
He's always with you, bub.

17:02.265 --> 17:03.265
What?

17:04.065 --> 17:07.705
Every time I do something good,
they always talk about Dad like he did it.

17:08.785 --> 17:10.425
He did teach you.

17:10.505 --> 17:11.945
Yeah, but he's not here though.

17:12.025 --> 17:13.825
But he'd tell you, just the same as me.

17:14.345 --> 17:15.825
"Just show 'em what you can do, bub."

17:18.625 --> 17:19.785
Oh, look out!

17:19.865 --> 17:20.905
Hey, Charlie.

17:20.985 --> 17:21.905
Hey, Betty.

17:22.425 --> 17:24.425
What's this then?

17:26.185 --> 17:27.505
Good to see you.

17:27.585 --> 17:28.825
Good to see you too.

17:31.145 --> 17:33.145
Mum, this is Charlie.

17:33.225 --> 17:34.545
He works at Five Bob.

17:35.065 --> 17:37.145
Not sure why he's shown up
out of the blue.

17:37.225 --> 17:40.545
- Oh, I can go if you don't want any help.
- I don't remember asking for any.

17:44.465 --> 17:47.385
- Where are you from, Charlie boy?
- Up Queensland way.

17:47.905 --> 17:48.985
Who you mob?

17:52.625 --> 17:53.585
Don't know, Auntie.

17:53.665 --> 17:55.785
Been working for the Beechams
as long as I can remember.

17:55.865 --> 17:57.265
He's a drover, Mum.

17:57.825 --> 18:00.105
- Droving man?
- Yeah. That's right.

18:00.185 --> 18:03.665
Well, you keep asking
those old people on your travels.

18:04.345 --> 18:05.465
You'll find your family.

18:05.545 --> 18:09.265
Right, well, uh, I've got work to do.

18:09.345 --> 18:13.425
If you want to be helpful,
I need a barrel to practice my turns.

18:13.505 --> 18:15.145
Oh. I'm the barrel now?

18:15.665 --> 18:18.385
Gee. She's a tough one, isn't she?

18:19.305 --> 18:22.545
- He's the one from Empire Day.
- That explains it.

18:27.065 --> 18:28.905
"Dear Gert."

18:29.665 --> 18:34.185
"Our parents are living proof

18:34.265 --> 18:37.385
that love is unreliable."

18:37.465 --> 18:40.785
"I'll play Granny's game long enough
to prove to Everard

18:40.865 --> 18:45.865
that I should write for his theater
without the need of a marriage contract."

18:48.265 --> 18:51.305
"I will get us out of this mess.
I promise."

18:53.185 --> 18:56.145
Here you are.
How are your building skills?

18:56.745 --> 18:57.585
Why?

18:57.665 --> 18:59.905
Because it'll give you
an actual job for a change.

19:01.345 --> 19:02.345
That's rather rude.

19:03.745 --> 19:06.265
Hm. I was trying for a joke.

19:06.345 --> 19:10.705
To cover my personal distaste
about having to ask anyone for a favor.

19:12.945 --> 19:14.465
You need a favor from me?

19:15.505 --> 19:16.345
Yes.

19:16.425 --> 19:17.465
Hm.

19:18.545 --> 19:19.865
Shall we?

19:22.945 --> 19:24.785
<i>Back when we were both small</i>

19:24.865 --> 19:26.865
<i>I will show you</i>

19:26.945 --> 19:29.225
<i>The dire…</i>

19:29.305 --> 19:30.665
Gosh, Sybylla!

19:30.745 --> 19:32.065
Have you ever…

19:34.505 --> 19:35.945
<i>I will show you</i>

19:36.785 --> 19:39.105
<i>Before it felt like a sin</i>

19:44.625 --> 19:46.305
No.

19:46.385 --> 19:48.305
<i>Before it felt like a sin</i>

19:52.865 --> 19:54.825
<i>Felt like a sin</i>

19:55.625 --> 19:57.985
<i>Before it felt like a sin</i>

20:00.225 --> 20:01.985
<i>There's nothing for me</i>

20:02.665 --> 20:05.625
<i>You know the world is small</i>

20:05.705 --> 20:07.305
<i>But how he touched me</i>

20:07.385 --> 20:09.905
<i>For that I feel before</i>

20:09.985 --> 20:11.945
<i>Back in the city</i>

20:12.025 --> 20:14.465
<i>Cold eyes and lips are dust</i>

20:14.545 --> 20:16.585
<i>So turn and face me</i>

20:16.665 --> 20:20.825
<i>Turn to the altar of lust</i>

20:24.905 --> 20:27.265
<i>Pray for me, all for me</i>

20:27.345 --> 20:29.545
<i>Pray for me, all for me</i>

20:29.625 --> 20:32.545
<i>Pray for me, all for me</i>

20:32.625 --> 20:34.265
<i>Before it felt like a sin</i>

20:43.025 --> 20:45.025
<i>There was movement at the station</i>

20:45.105 --> 20:49.265
<i>Because a girl had come to… town</i>

20:49.345 --> 20:53.025
<i>No. Because the word had got around</i>

20:53.105 --> 20:54.225
<i>Yes, that's it.</i>

20:54.305 --> 20:55.625
<i>Scans so much better.</i>

20:56.505 --> 20:59.585
<i>Hm. What rhymes with "suffragist"?</i>

20:59.665 --> 21:00.745
<i>"Percussionist."</i>

21:01.505 --> 21:03.385
<i>Uh, I might change that.</i>

21:03.465 --> 21:05.905
<i>Her blood, it ran with ink</i>

21:05.985 --> 21:07.025
<i>No.</i>

21:07.105 --> 21:09.465
<i>It runs with deep blue ink</i>

21:10.065 --> 21:13.265
<i>Her pen was sharp, but her pain was felt</i>

21:13.345 --> 21:14.825
<i>Her pain was real</i>

21:14.905 --> 21:16.545
<i>- His lies ran--</i>
- Sybylla.

21:17.905 --> 21:18.905
Harry.

21:20.185 --> 21:21.785
I'm here to see Everard.

21:22.825 --> 21:23.985
I'll leave you to it.

21:26.545 --> 21:28.705
You shouldn't have heard
about Blanche that way.

21:32.665 --> 21:33.585
You're engaged,

21:33.665 --> 21:35.385
and I'm very happy for you.

21:36.145 --> 21:37.825
I am, but it's complicated.

21:40.065 --> 21:41.745
Is that what Blanche would say?

21:43.185 --> 21:44.185
Beecham.

21:45.745 --> 21:46.785
Right on time.

21:53.705 --> 21:55.505
Everard. How are you?

21:56.025 --> 21:57.345
Good to see you.

22:07.305 --> 22:10.625
It's just to tide me over
until the shearing's done.

22:10.705 --> 22:11.865
Yeah.

22:12.705 --> 22:14.785
Well, I don't see any issues.

22:16.465 --> 22:19.545
Short-term loan for a family like yours
is something we do all the time.

22:22.865 --> 22:24.105
That's a relief.

22:24.985 --> 22:26.425
It's five o'clock somewhere.

22:37.305 --> 22:40.305
Now, I feel I put my foot in it
the other day.

22:40.385 --> 22:41.225
About Blanche.

22:41.305 --> 22:43.065
Ah. No, it's fine.

22:43.145 --> 22:44.145
Okay.

22:45.905 --> 22:47.625
There is an understanding
between you, then.

22:48.665 --> 22:49.505
I suppose.

22:51.665 --> 22:53.345
That came out wrong.

22:54.305 --> 22:57.185
It's just that I'm trying
to do the right thing by everyone

22:57.265 --> 22:58.945
and failing them all.

23:00.345 --> 23:02.905
You're an honorable man, Beecham.

23:03.945 --> 23:04.785
It's plain as day.

23:05.905 --> 23:06.905
Sure.

23:08.345 --> 23:09.545
But what's more important?

23:10.065 --> 23:10.905
Love or honor?

23:12.785 --> 23:13.985
Good question.

23:15.305 --> 23:16.305
For me,

23:17.145 --> 23:18.985
love trumps honor, every time.

23:19.065 --> 23:21.025
Do whatever it takes
to hold on to love, I say.

23:22.745 --> 23:24.225
What if you've made a promise?

23:25.545 --> 23:26.745
Made to be broken.

23:32.345 --> 23:33.225
Yeah.

23:33.305 --> 23:34.585
About this business, uh,

23:35.185 --> 23:37.625
I'd appreciate it
if we could keep it between us.

23:37.705 --> 23:39.825
Oh, naturally. Cheers.

23:44.665 --> 23:45.665
Here.

23:47.705 --> 23:49.305
Still not fast enough.

23:49.385 --> 23:52.065
- You'll have more on him on the day.
- Yeah, hope so.

23:53.465 --> 23:54.625
Something to say?

23:55.145 --> 23:57.305
Feels like
you've got something else to prove.

23:57.385 --> 23:58.705
More than just a sale.

23:59.225 --> 24:00.225
Yeah?

24:01.505 --> 24:02.745
I wanna be foreman.

24:05.665 --> 24:07.345
I've never said that out loud before.

24:07.945 --> 24:08.945
Hm.

24:09.985 --> 24:11.065
Well, I'd give you the job.

24:26.545 --> 24:27.385
For you.

24:29.585 --> 24:30.585
Thank you.

24:34.785 --> 24:35.785
Here.

24:49.225 --> 24:51.425
So, when are you going droving next?

24:51.505 --> 24:52.745
Why? Are you gonna miss me?

24:53.425 --> 24:54.505
No.

24:57.225 --> 24:58.225
Next week.

25:00.025 --> 25:01.065
And I'll miss you.

25:03.465 --> 25:04.945
Nell Kirby.

25:08.745 --> 25:10.625
Yah!

25:14.105 --> 25:16.465
Yah!

25:31.145 --> 25:32.305
Nell.

25:33.825 --> 25:35.185
Staying out here again?

25:36.385 --> 25:37.985
Got something to say about it, Jim?

25:38.065 --> 25:39.225
Nah.

25:39.305 --> 25:41.825
Get some sleep.
You'll need it all for tomorrow.

25:57.145 --> 25:59.385
Yes, I like the look of that thoroughbred.

25:59.865 --> 26:01.065
This fellow has a nice…

26:01.145 --> 26:03.545
…brumbies were working
to the breeding program?

26:03.625 --> 26:05.465
If Harry doesn't buy them all first.

26:05.985 --> 26:07.185
What do you think, Harry?

26:07.865 --> 26:11.265
Well, Whyambeet is
always in need of good stock…

26:12.185 --> 26:15.385
You see, Everard, I can't abide lateness.

26:16.545 --> 26:18.825
Well, he's normally punctual.

26:19.625 --> 26:21.585
Do you think he's actually coming?

26:23.825 --> 26:25.985
Ah. Here he comes now.

26:27.505 --> 26:28.825
Mrs. Bossier.

26:29.865 --> 26:33.105
Apologies. My horse threw a shoe.

26:33.185 --> 26:36.105
Just in time, Mr. Hardwicke.
We were about to start without you.

26:38.305 --> 26:39.585
It's good to see you.

26:40.625 --> 26:42.105
So…

26:42.185 --> 26:43.465
Let's do it.

26:56.785 --> 26:58.425
You know the rules.

26:58.505 --> 27:02.105
Once around the course,
then the brumby catch.

27:02.745 --> 27:03.865
Quickest team wins.

27:03.945 --> 27:05.665
Heads, you go first, Jim.

27:05.745 --> 27:07.025
Tails, then it's you Nell.

27:08.705 --> 27:09.665
Here we go.

27:13.825 --> 27:14.865
Go, Jim!

27:15.385 --> 27:16.705
Go, go, Jimmy!

27:18.785 --> 27:20.625
Release the brumby!

27:22.305 --> 27:23.865
You've still got time.

27:23.945 --> 27:26.305
- He missed!
- Aw, Jim!

27:29.465 --> 27:30.985
Yes, Jim!

27:34.585 --> 27:38.145
- Three minutes and twenty seconds.
- Very good!

27:38.225 --> 27:39.105
Good work.

27:39.825 --> 27:41.505
You're up, Nell.

27:41.585 --> 27:44.145
<i>People asked me why I never find</i>
<i>A place to stop and settle</i>

27:44.225 --> 27:45.625
<i>Down, down, down</i>

27:45.705 --> 27:47.185
- Yah!
- <i>Hey, hey!</i>

27:47.785 --> 27:49.745
<i>But I never wanted all those things</i>

27:49.825 --> 27:52.625
<i>People need</i>
<i>To justify their lives, lives, lives</i>

27:52.705 --> 27:54.505
- Go, Nell!
- Come on, Nellie!

27:55.825 --> 27:57.705
Release the brumby!

27:57.785 --> 28:00.505
<i>Born to be alive</i>

28:01.545 --> 28:04.105
- Yah!
<i>- It's good to be alive…</i>

28:15.185 --> 28:16.145
Yes.

28:16.225 --> 28:20.065
<i>It's good to be alive</i>

28:21.385 --> 28:23.425
- Come on, Nell!
- Time!

28:26.225 --> 28:29.585
Three minutes and…

28:34.745 --> 28:36.425
Three seconds! Nell's the winner!

28:36.505 --> 28:37.905
Bravo! Bravo!

28:37.985 --> 28:38.945
- Yes!
- Nice!

28:40.265 --> 28:42.185
- Yes!
- Well done, Nell!

28:42.265 --> 28:43.265
Yay!

28:54.945 --> 28:58.465
Well, gentlemen, let the bidding… begin.

28:59.305 --> 29:00.145
£200.

29:01.345 --> 29:02.265
220.

29:03.305 --> 29:04.185
240.

29:05.145 --> 29:06.225
260.

29:08.025 --> 29:10.985
£400!

29:12.065 --> 29:14.345
- Congratulations, Mr. Hardwicke.
- Thank you.

29:14.425 --> 29:15.665
And to you, Mother.

29:15.745 --> 29:16.905
I knew we'd win.

29:16.985 --> 29:18.305
Well, I'm sorry I missed it.

29:18.385 --> 29:20.145
No, you're not. But I forgive you.

29:20.225 --> 29:21.865
Helen's not interested in horses.

29:21.945 --> 29:22.945
That is not true.

29:23.025 --> 29:24.265
But she loves selling them.

29:24.345 --> 29:25.345
And celebrating them.

29:25.425 --> 29:27.465
We're keen to celebrate this.

29:27.545 --> 29:28.705
Like baby magpies.

29:28.785 --> 29:30.905
So how long has it been, Mr. Hardwicke?

29:30.985 --> 29:32.465
Well, it'd have to be ten years.

29:32.545 --> 29:34.345
Since you left me for another stable.

29:34.425 --> 29:35.745
Hm.

29:35.825 --> 29:38.025
I far preferred working for you, Winifred.

29:38.105 --> 29:39.225
You know me.

29:39.745 --> 29:41.345
- Shall we cheers?
- I think so.

29:41.425 --> 29:44.185
- Why don't you take a seat, Helen?
- At sunset, yes?

29:44.265 --> 29:45.465
I know about the lanterns.

29:45.545 --> 29:47.585
You can trust me, Syb.

29:47.665 --> 29:49.465
You happy? Little brother.

29:52.025 --> 29:53.505
I'll take some.

29:55.105 --> 29:56.745
Sybylla.

29:57.225 --> 29:59.785
- Hm?
- Augusta.

29:59.865 --> 30:04.305
- This is quite the outfit.
- I would never miss a horse event.

30:04.385 --> 30:06.105
But you weren't there.

30:06.785 --> 30:09.665
Well, I kept Helen company.
She's an inside person.

30:10.385 --> 30:11.385
More importantly,

30:12.625 --> 30:15.625
I was desperately sorry
to hear your news about <i>The Bulletin</i>.

30:17.265 --> 30:20.425
Yes, well, I'm learning
to deal with unpleasant news.

30:20.945 --> 30:22.505
Are we good?

30:24.265 --> 30:25.505
Of course.

30:26.225 --> 30:28.505
You are by far
the most interesting person I know

30:28.585 --> 30:30.265
in the whole district.

30:31.425 --> 30:33.465
As you are to me.

30:34.865 --> 30:37.145
Now what's all this new mischief, hm?

30:37.785 --> 30:38.945
You'll see.

30:42.105 --> 30:44.825
Ah!

30:44.905 --> 30:48.905
- Julius, as I live and breathe. Hello!
- Ah!

30:50.545 --> 30:53.105
Okay, everyone, gather yourselves.
Grab a lantern.

30:53.185 --> 30:55.105
Next up is something from Sybylla.

30:55.625 --> 30:58.985
- This way, please!
- What's happening?

30:59.065 --> 31:01.345
I have no idea.
But I do know it's this way.

31:01.425 --> 31:03.345
Things perked up since I've been gone.

31:04.105 --> 31:06.105
To be fair, only since your niece arrived.

31:11.065 --> 31:12.705
Did your bank look at the books?

31:14.545 --> 31:15.625
They did.

31:15.705 --> 31:19.345
And I'm very sorry, Beecham,
but they're worried you're overextended.

31:19.425 --> 31:21.065
All those new farms.

31:21.145 --> 31:23.265
You don't have control over any of them.

31:23.785 --> 31:25.145
That's because the intention is

31:25.225 --> 31:27.425
they'll all buy them back from me
when they can.

31:27.505 --> 31:28.785
Exactly.

31:28.865 --> 31:30.705
But… uh, when?

31:30.785 --> 31:33.625
Look, if it were up to me,
I would… I would say yes.

31:33.705 --> 31:36.345
But I'm just the messenger.

31:36.425 --> 31:38.665
Here, try this lot.

31:40.385 --> 31:43.545
They're less cautious than my father,
but reputable.

31:44.585 --> 31:45.585
Okay.

31:46.985 --> 31:48.265
Sorry.

31:55.825 --> 31:57.425
Welcome.

32:06.625 --> 32:08.905
<i>The Girl from Possum Gully.</i>

32:08.985 --> 32:11.945
With apologies to Banjo Paterson.

32:12.025 --> 32:14.425
<i>There was movement at the station</i>

32:14.505 --> 32:16.225
<i>For the word had got around</i>

32:16.305 --> 32:19.145
<i>That the girl from Possum Gully</i>
<i>Had come to stay</i>

32:19.225 --> 32:21.345
<i>But the Englishman cried</i>

32:21.425 --> 32:24.945
<i>"There's not a penny to rub together</i>
<i>Let alone a pound"</i>

32:25.025 --> 32:25.985
No.

32:26.065 --> 32:28.825
<i>So all the tried and noted suitors</i>

32:28.905 --> 32:30.865
<i>From stations near and far</i>

32:30.945 --> 32:32.145
<i>They came to woo</i>

32:32.225 --> 32:34.345
<i>They rode there overnight</i>

32:34.945 --> 32:36.545
<i>But the girl from Possum Gully</i>

32:36.625 --> 32:38.065
<i>Set a high bar</i>

32:38.145 --> 32:40.585
<i>And knocked them back</i>
<i>Wham, bang</i>

32:40.665 --> 32:43.065
<i>- With such delight</i>
- Syb!

32:47.145 --> 32:50.025
<i>To Three Shilling station she was sent</i>

32:50.105 --> 32:53.465
<i>- Let the suffragist have a go</i>
- Oh, that's me.

32:54.905 --> 32:57.585
<i>- But Henry of the Undertow</i>
- Oh!

32:59.825 --> 33:01.425
<i>He wasn't pleased</i>

33:01.505 --> 33:04.105
<i>He never said more than two words</i>

33:04.185 --> 33:05.745
<i>When lies would do</i>

33:05.825 --> 33:07.025
<i>And that girl talked</i>

33:07.105 --> 33:10.425
<i>- Above or under water with ease</i>
- Oh, that's true.

33:14.185 --> 33:17.065
<i>A secret shared is a secret lost</i>

33:18.185 --> 33:21.585
<i>And one day his story did unfold</i>

33:22.105 --> 33:23.305
<i>And her blood</i>

33:23.385 --> 33:28.785
<i>It ran with deep blue ink</i>
<i>The danger now was clear</i>

33:28.865 --> 33:30.265
<i>Her pen was sharp</i>

33:30.345 --> 33:32.145
<i>Her words were cold</i>

33:32.225 --> 33:33.905
<i>But the pain was real</i>

33:33.985 --> 33:36.065
<i>And true as sunset pink</i>

33:38.985 --> 33:41.465
<i>And so the girl from Possum Gully</i>

33:41.545 --> 33:44.305
<i>Is a household name today</i>

33:44.985 --> 33:48.345
<i>Perhaps she's raw and a little uncouth</i>

33:48.425 --> 33:50.545
<i>And some will say her poem's too long</i>

33:50.625 --> 33:52.705
Is that right, Mr. Grey?

33:53.625 --> 33:56.145
<i>But where her heart's concerned</i>

33:56.985 --> 34:00.345
<i>She will always live her truth</i>

34:06.465 --> 34:08.265
- Bravo!
- Brava!

34:08.785 --> 34:10.705
Bravo!

34:10.785 --> 34:13.105
Bravo!

34:13.185 --> 34:14.505
Marvelous, Sybylla!

34:14.585 --> 34:16.305
- Marvelous.
- Very witty, Sybylla.

34:16.385 --> 34:18.065
Definite improvement on the original.

34:18.865 --> 34:20.185
Good enough for the Alhambra?

34:21.825 --> 34:23.385
I… I don't see why not.

34:24.185 --> 34:27.465
I have more poems I could show you,
and I could write for other performers.

34:27.545 --> 34:29.105
It doesn't have to be me.

34:29.185 --> 34:30.825
I work hard, and I write fast.

34:30.905 --> 34:34.625
Then let's find a moment to talk later.

34:34.705 --> 34:35.665
Yes?

34:35.745 --> 34:36.785
In private.

34:36.865 --> 34:40.985
I might have a proposition
that could change both of our futures.

34:47.105 --> 34:47.985
What did he say?

34:48.065 --> 34:49.945
He wants to talk later.

34:50.025 --> 34:52.305
- In private.
- Shall we head back to the house?

34:52.385 --> 34:55.265
I never thought I'd say this,
but well done, Sybylla.

34:55.345 --> 34:58.265
Now, Julius, that is an excellent idea.

34:58.345 --> 35:00.305
Come on, then. Drinks back at the house.

35:05.225 --> 35:06.145
Psst!

35:09.505 --> 35:10.585
Psst!

35:11.585 --> 35:12.785
What are you…?

35:18.905 --> 35:21.425
Where have you been?
I haven't seen you in weeks.

35:21.505 --> 35:23.465
Do you want Gool Gool to become lawless?

35:23.545 --> 35:25.465
- Just so I can see you?
- I'm busy too!

35:28.065 --> 35:30.945
Why do we have to sneak around?
I wanna tell people about us.

35:31.025 --> 35:32.105
Betty, all I want

35:32.185 --> 35:34.345
is to tell the whole world
how I feel about you.

35:34.425 --> 35:36.305
- Yeah, really? So why don't you?
- And…

35:47.185 --> 35:49.145
I need to tell my family first.

35:51.065 --> 35:52.185
I wanna do it properly.

35:54.625 --> 35:56.185
I just want them to know you.

36:01.745 --> 36:03.465
'Cause I'm mad about you.

36:04.545 --> 36:05.745
You must know that.

36:18.745 --> 36:20.905
Ah.

36:21.745 --> 36:24.625
Syb! Ah!

36:25.145 --> 36:27.105
We're just off for a breath of fresh air.

36:29.385 --> 36:32.425
You were… you were
amazing tonight, Sybylla.

36:32.505 --> 36:33.505
You're a marvel.

36:34.025 --> 36:35.425
You really owned that stage.

36:35.945 --> 36:37.505
A new star is born.

36:43.745 --> 36:46.625
- So what's this big proposal?
- You'll love it.

36:46.705 --> 36:48.825
I just need to sell it to your…

36:56.945 --> 36:58.385
Are you mad?

36:58.465 --> 37:01.305
The opposite.
This could be the perfect solution.

37:01.825 --> 37:02.825
No.

37:04.065 --> 37:05.705
I asked you to come to Caddagat

37:05.785 --> 37:07.625
so you'd understand how I feel
about this place.

37:08.265 --> 37:10.865
Not so you'd… do this.

37:10.945 --> 37:12.745
Yeah, and I see it now.

37:13.265 --> 37:15.785
You're a farmer, J. It's in your blood.

37:16.705 --> 37:18.505
But I can't live here.

37:18.585 --> 37:19.705
I know!

37:19.785 --> 37:23.025
Sybylla's a hoot, and this way
you can come visit me whenever,

37:23.105 --> 37:25.185
and no one will ask any questions.

37:28.465 --> 37:30.945
- What, you really want to marry her?
- Of course not.

37:31.025 --> 37:32.145
Not like that.

37:33.265 --> 37:34.505
She's gagging to get out.

37:34.585 --> 37:36.865
- The desperation's dripping off of her.
- Steady on.

37:36.945 --> 37:38.785
- This is my niece.
- Exactly.

37:38.865 --> 37:41.545
Any girl would be boots and all
with your mother and sister.

37:41.625 --> 37:44.265
But she's different. Right?

37:44.345 --> 37:45.945
She's different.

37:52.625 --> 37:54.825
This is the perfect solution.

37:57.105 --> 37:58.225
For us.

38:31.945 --> 38:33.345
Well done, Syb.

38:33.425 --> 38:34.545
You pulled it off.

38:42.545 --> 38:43.705
It was rather good.

38:43.785 --> 38:44.985
Mm.

38:46.025 --> 38:48.505
That's a muted response,
not your usual form.

38:51.105 --> 38:52.105
Frank.

38:54.905 --> 38:57.265
Have you ever known an instance, where…

38:59.185 --> 39:02.625
two men might wanna…

39:03.825 --> 39:05.985
kiss one another?

39:09.705 --> 39:10.945
Um…

39:12.905 --> 39:14.225
That.

39:15.625 --> 39:16.825
Well…

39:19.105 --> 39:20.545
Yes. Mm.

39:22.585 --> 39:25.025
Can it mean anything other than love?

39:25.105 --> 39:26.105
Prison.

39:27.265 --> 39:28.665
Not saying I agree with the law.

39:28.745 --> 39:31.745
I think if you're willing
to risk everything, it must be real.

39:33.225 --> 39:34.305
Real but secret.

39:36.385 --> 39:37.385
Yes.

39:38.665 --> 39:40.105
That's the world we live in.

39:44.185 --> 39:45.225
Is it someone we know?

39:46.505 --> 39:48.265
'Course not.

39:49.305 --> 39:51.145
I'm plotting my next story.

39:53.545 --> 39:56.105
Sounds a bit too scandalous
for publication.

39:56.185 --> 39:57.745
Yes.

39:57.825 --> 39:59.545
I think I need a new idea.

40:10.385 --> 40:13.225
"Love that lives in the shadows."

40:16.625 --> 40:18.065
How sad.

40:28.465 --> 40:29.705
Sybylla?

40:31.105 --> 40:32.345
Hi.

40:32.425 --> 40:34.105
Can I talk to you for a moment, please?

40:34.185 --> 40:35.505
Sure.

40:52.505 --> 40:54.345
Ah. Take a seat, sorry. Uh…

41:06.545 --> 41:08.865
Okay, when I came to Caddagat,

41:08.945 --> 41:11.345
the last thing
that I expected to find was…

41:12.265 --> 41:13.465
…was love.

41:16.145 --> 41:18.905
I was quite surprised myself.

41:20.105 --> 41:21.745
I can't hold it in anymore.

41:22.265 --> 41:24.145
You've completely captivated me.

41:24.225 --> 41:28.185
I've been thinking about life without you,
and I can't leave without asking…

41:31.185 --> 41:32.305
for you to marry me.

41:36.985 --> 41:38.625
But you don't even know what I want.

41:38.705 --> 41:39.825
Oh…

41:42.585 --> 41:44.945
What is it? I'll give you anything.

41:48.065 --> 41:50.025
I wanna look after my family.

41:50.545 --> 41:52.185
And I want to write.

41:52.705 --> 41:54.865
I want to earn my own money.

41:55.385 --> 41:57.545
- And work in your theater.
- Of course.

41:57.625 --> 42:00.265
Of course.
You'll be the face of the Alhambra.

42:00.345 --> 42:02.785
All of Sydney society
will be at your feet.

42:03.985 --> 42:05.345
As my wife.

42:16.585 --> 42:20.305
I thought the looks
that you've been giving me,

42:20.385 --> 42:21.545
your poem…

42:25.185 --> 42:27.385
It was a sample of my work.

42:27.465 --> 42:28.745
Ah…

42:28.825 --> 42:31.825
I never actually thought
that you'd wanna marry me.

42:31.905 --> 42:33.305
I played a game.

42:36.145 --> 42:38.265
But I saw you kissing my uncle.

42:39.705 --> 42:42.425
And I know that you're in love with him.

42:47.025 --> 42:48.065
You idiot.

42:48.945 --> 42:50.665
You idiot.

42:50.745 --> 42:52.865
No, I care so much for both of you.

42:52.945 --> 42:54.905
- That's a--
- Shut up, you stupid girl.

42:54.985 --> 42:57.825
Do you know the damage
you could do with these accusations?

42:57.905 --> 43:00.185
I…

43:01.465 --> 43:04.185
It could have been perfect.
Your little independence dream.

43:04.265 --> 43:06.545
Our cover. But you've ruined everything.

43:06.625 --> 43:07.985
I would never tell anyone.

43:08.065 --> 43:09.425
You'd better not.

43:14.065 --> 43:14.985
Bye.

43:15.065 --> 43:16.905
Goodbye, Sybylla.

43:24.305 --> 43:25.665
Everard, wait.

43:29.625 --> 43:30.625
Ev!

43:30.705 --> 43:32.185
- Oh no!
- What's going on?

43:32.905 --> 43:34.105
Why do you have your bag?

43:34.705 --> 43:35.665
I'm so sorry.

43:35.745 --> 43:37.385
Ev. Ev, what's happening?

43:37.985 --> 43:39.865
Please call your man.
I need to leave right away.

43:40.545 --> 43:44.105
- Leave? Why? What's happening?
- There is nothing to discuss.

43:44.625 --> 43:46.425
- What? This… Talk to me.
- There's…

43:46.505 --> 43:47.545
Hey, talk to me.

43:47.625 --> 43:51.505
There is nothing to discuss!
I am done with you and your family!

43:51.585 --> 43:54.065
Done with my family?
What are you talking about?

43:54.145 --> 43:57.185
- Everard's leaving?
- What, what are you…? I mean…

43:57.265 --> 43:59.625
- I have never been so humiliated.
- Calm down.

43:59.705 --> 44:01.225
Stay. You're acting like a child.

44:01.305 --> 44:03.545
I've never seen Julius so upset.

44:03.625 --> 44:05.385
It's over. Just accept it.

44:05.985 --> 44:07.665
What are they talking about?

44:07.745 --> 44:10.545
<i>Such a cruel game</i>

44:12.465 --> 44:15.025
<i>But it's not over yet</i>

44:15.105 --> 44:15.945
I turned him down.

44:16.985 --> 44:19.185
He asked me to marry him, and I said no.

44:20.025 --> 44:21.825
You turned down Everard Grey?

44:23.065 --> 44:24.065
I'm sorry.

44:24.785 --> 44:26.185
So am I.

44:30.905 --> 44:36.825
<i>It's over between my head and my heart</i>

44:36.905 --> 44:39.065
This is very bad, Sybylla.

44:40.665 --> 44:42.785
<i>What happens now</i>

44:42.865 --> 44:44.825
<i>What happens when</i>

44:44.905 --> 44:47.585
<i>The light starts to flip</i>

44:47.665 --> 44:50.585
<i>The light starts to dim</i>
