00:00:00Hold him!
00:00:14Daddy! Somebody help my dad! Please, someone help him!
00:00:22What a tragic accident.
00:00:24But perhaps it's for the best.
00:00:27The mortgage agreement takes effect automatically. Grey Manor is now mine.
00:00:35Let me go, you thieves!
00:00:37My father took you and your son in out of the goodness of his heart, let you stay as our
00:00:42governess, and this is how you repay him, by framing him!
00:00:47William, look away. Standing near such despotution will only dirty your eyes.
00:00:51We used to be friends, you liars! One day I will take back everything I lost with my own two
00:00:57hands!
00:00:58Help! Let me go!
00:01:11Good day, Mrs. Ashford.
00:01:14You said your name is Martha Hart, a graduate of the Bath Academy for Girls.
00:01:19Why do you want to be a governance in our household?
00:01:21Because I've heard that Ashford Manor has the finest stables in the county, along with the most profound family history.
00:01:26I wanted to see it for myself.
00:01:28A rather unique reason. Very well, you're hired. A one-month probationary period. The butler will show you to your
00:01:34room.
00:01:34Thank you, Mrs. Ashford.
00:01:41Never be tamed.
00:01:48I'm finally in.
00:01:53Cecilia, I'm gonna make you watch everything you care about be destroyed, piece by piece.
00:02:01What was that sound?
00:02:06Is that... Cecilia's son, William?
00:02:15It seems the first step of my revenge begins with this arrogant young master and his horse.
00:02:23Martha, this is my daughter Isabella. She is timid and rarely speaks. I didn't hire you just to let her
00:02:29read books all day.
00:02:31Hello, I'm Martha. From today on, I'll be reading and walking with you, and we'll go to the stables to
00:02:36meet the horses.
00:02:37I'm not going! My brother's black horse just kicked someone yesterday. Horses are too dangerous.
00:02:42Then we'll just look at the gentlest ponies first. We won't get close until you're ready, okay?
00:02:47Can we really stay away from them?
00:02:50Yes, we can.
00:02:51I hope you actually have some skills.
00:02:53Don't be like the last governess. All her coaxing and tricking proved useless, and she quit in tears after just
00:03:00three days.
00:03:01I will prove my worth.
00:03:08What is this?
00:03:09This is the bell I dropped back then? He actually kept it?
00:03:20This shouldn't be here.
00:03:24My apologies. I just saw something in the dirt.
00:03:30You're the new governess.
00:03:32These don't look like hands that only hold quill pens.
00:03:35Do you ride?
00:03:36I don't ride, but I know how to read a horse.
00:03:40Read a horse?
00:03:42On the track, it's about the reins and courage, not your eyes.
00:03:52A snowflake spot on the left foreleg?
00:03:55You're a horse from my family.
00:03:57A descendant of the Grey's unique thoroughbreds.
00:04:00Ghost.
00:04:05Who's there?
00:04:06Step away from that horse.
00:04:07He broke a groom's ribs just last week.
00:04:10I was just taking a walk, young master.
00:04:12And he's very gentle.
00:04:18He never lets strangers touch him.
00:04:20What did you do?
00:04:22And how do you know his name is Ghost?
00:04:26Answer me.
00:04:27He resists even me.
00:04:28How could a new governess keep him this calm?
00:04:30You named a thoroughred brought back from the battlefield Ghost.
00:04:33Is it because his fierce temper is like a phantom?
00:04:35You talk too much.
00:04:37Aren't you afraid he'll crush your bones?
00:04:38A horse is a mirror to a person.
00:04:40You approach with a blade and a guard up, and he gives you fury in return.
00:04:43I steady my breathing and show no hostility, so naturally he calms down.
00:04:47It's just observation, young master.
00:04:49Even it took me half a year before he let me get close.
00:04:52Who exactly are you?
00:04:54Tomorrow morning at six, the training ring.
00:04:56Since you claim to know horses, I want to see this observation of yours with my own eyes.
00:05:02Yes, young master.
00:05:07Cecilia, I will use your own son to destroy your foundation from the inside.
00:05:11Never be tame.
00:05:14William.
00:05:16You actually kept that bell.
00:05:26I'm sorry, but I will absolutely not show mercy.
00:05:35How are you supposed to mount a horse in that dress?
00:05:38This is the only dress I have, young master.
00:05:40Besides, I told you I don't ride.
00:05:42I only know how to read them.
00:05:45Then you'd better watch closely from outside the fence today.
00:05:50Jack!
00:05:55One, two, three.
00:05:57The takeoff point is off.
00:06:05What do you think?
00:06:06You took off half a horse length too early at the eighth hurdle.
00:06:08Your center of gravity was pressed too rigidly.
00:06:10If the hurdle had been three inches higher, you would have broken his legs.
00:06:14You saw all that?
00:06:16If you don't ride, how can you know so much about the details of horsemanship?
00:06:19A destitute afford a decent saddle.
00:06:20Nor has anyone ever taught me how to truly get on a horse's back.
00:06:23But I only have my eyes.
00:06:25No practice.
00:06:25Since you have such good eyes, it's a shame to leave you standing outside the fence.
00:06:29From now on, every morning at six, I will teach you how to turn that theory into reality.
00:06:34Thank you, young master.
00:06:39Miss Martha, these are for you.
00:06:42Thank you, Isabella.
00:06:49Who gave this to you?
00:06:51My brother.
00:06:52He said if my teacher understands horses, she would definitely like this bell.
00:06:58He's testing me.
00:07:00He suspects this bell has something to do with me.
00:07:08Madam, you sent for me.
00:07:13I heard William spent quite a while at the training grounds today.
00:07:17He only asked me to observe.
00:07:19He hasn't put me on a horse yet.
00:07:22I want to remind you that the position of governess is respectable, but only just respectable.
00:07:28Isabella needs a teacher.
00:07:29William does not need a friend.
00:07:35You look very much like a student I taught many years ago.
00:07:38Her name was Annie Gray.
00:07:40Do you know her?
00:07:43I've heard of her.
00:07:44I heard her family went bankrupt.
00:07:46Bankrupt.
00:07:47Because her father didn't know his place and foolishly tried to reach above his station.
00:07:55So know your place, Miss Martha.
00:07:58Don't mistake the young master's passing feintcy for a ticket to rise above your class.
00:08:02Don't covet what doesn't belong to you.
00:08:05I will remember your lesson.
00:08:15She not only took everything, she trampled on my father's dignity.
00:08:22What are you doing here?
00:08:24Nothing.
00:08:25I just finished listening to Madam's lecture.
00:08:27I saw it.
00:08:28Silva, what are you hiding?
00:08:32Everyone has something they don't want others to see.
00:08:36You parade around with a bell, yet hide the pendant.
00:08:40You'd better not keep secrets from me.
00:08:44My secrets, young master, are better left unknown.
00:08:47They won't do you any good.
00:08:55Aunt Cecilia, the roads here are still terribly bumpy.
00:08:59Welcome, Henrietta.
00:09:01The whole estate brightens up with you here.
00:09:04Is this the new governess?
00:09:06Pretty enough, I suppose, but dressed terribly plain.
00:09:11Welcome, Miss Green.
00:09:16I hear you're still learning to ride?
00:09:19I was riding a state by the time I was five.
00:09:24I come from the country, Miss Green.
00:09:26I haven't had as many opportunities to be around such fine horses.
00:09:30Miss Martha does indeed have much to learn.
00:09:33Let's go inside for some tea.
00:09:41Stay away from William.
00:09:44I am only doing my job, Miss Green.
00:09:46The woman William favours must be of noble birth.
00:09:49And you?
00:09:51You can't even afford a decent saddle.
00:09:58Let go of me, Miss Green.
00:10:01You will regret this!
00:10:09Do you know who gave William his first saddle when he was seven?
00:10:13It was me.
00:10:15Since you know how to ride,
00:10:18why don't we have a little show jumping race?
00:10:22I am only a beginner.
00:10:25Then you can just act as my practice partner.
00:10:28Or are you too scared?
00:10:33She doesn't need to race you.
00:10:35It isn't fair.
00:10:36Let them have their fun, William.
00:10:37Don't be a spoil beast.
00:10:44Then I'll give it a try.
00:10:49Go!
00:10:59That's impossible!
00:11:03Apologies, Miss Green.
00:11:05Beginner's luck.
00:11:08You are no beginner.
00:11:10You've been lying this whole time!
00:11:14I said I was a beginner,
00:11:15but I never said I hadn't ridden before.
00:11:19You liar!
00:11:22You lied to me.
00:11:24You've always known how to ride well.
00:11:25Why pretend?
00:11:27You're hurting me, sir.
00:11:31Answer me.
00:11:33Why the act?
00:11:36Because if I rode perfectly from the start,
00:11:38would you still teach me like this?
00:11:44Repeat after me, Isabella.
00:11:45Miss Martha, you're amazing!
00:11:47Even Miss Green couldn't beat you.
00:11:49You're just like the knights in Papa's favorite book,
00:11:51The Illustrated Guide to Medieval Saddlery.
00:11:54But Mama hid it on the top shelf a few days ago
00:11:56and told everyone not to touch it.
00:11:57I see.
00:11:57But it's time for your French lesson now, Isabella.
00:12:00I'll learn anything,
00:12:01as long as you stay with me.
00:12:03All right.
00:12:04I'll stay.
00:12:05But could you go and fetch me a glass of water first?
00:12:08I'll be right back!
00:12:21All assets and title dockings of the Ashford estate
00:12:23are unconditionally transferred to my wife, Cecilia,
00:12:25effective from the date of signing.
00:12:26An estate property transfer deed.
00:12:28This thickness and texture,
00:12:29it's custom parchment from the Luan Valley in France,
00:12:31and last December, Sir Henry was convaletting in Bath.
00:12:33His hands shook so badly,
00:12:34he could barely hold a teacup.
00:12:35How could he possibly produce such a firm signature?
00:12:41Cecilia forged this transfer deed.
00:12:42She wants to swallow the entire estate.
00:12:46What are you looking for?
00:12:48I was looking for a Latin dictionary for Isabella.
00:12:50The Latin dictionaries are on the bottom shelf.
00:12:53Why were you looking at the top?
00:12:55I misread the label.
00:12:57This is Sir Henry's study.
00:13:00Do not wander in here again.
00:13:02Understood, madam.
00:13:03See that you do.
00:13:15You've been off this whole time.
00:13:18I'm fine.
00:13:22What are you doing?
00:13:23Get down!
00:13:23I heard my mother giving you a hard time again today.
00:13:26And then?
00:13:27What else did she say?
00:13:30And then she told me to know my place.
00:13:32You don't have to take everything my mother says to heart.
00:13:36Try again.
00:13:37I'm right here with you this time.
00:13:45Come down.
00:13:53What were you thinking about on the horse just now?
00:13:55Why were you crying?
00:13:57I was thinking about someone.
00:14:01Who?
00:14:03My father.
00:14:04What happened to your father?
00:14:10Just how many secrets are you hiding?
00:14:19This thickness and texture, it's definitely not standard British official parchment.
00:14:25Thomas, take the enclosed parchment clipping for testing.
00:14:28Focus on purchase records for custom paper from the Louvre Valley in France.
00:14:31Also, find a way to obtain Sir Henry's actual medical records from his convalescent in Bath, December.
00:14:36Cecilia, if you dare to forge a transfer deed, you're bound to leave a floor.
00:14:41In two weeks, we will be hosting the summer race meeting.
00:14:46Nobility from across the country will attend.
00:14:49William, will you escort me to the event?
00:14:53I have horses to train.
00:14:54I don't have the time.
00:14:55Miss Martha, surely you'll be joining us on race day?
00:14:58Oh, wait, no.
00:14:58You'll be responsible for mucking out the stables.
00:15:00The stables are the most important part, Miss Green.
00:15:03If the horses aren't in top condition, the race meeting will be a disaster.
00:15:06You will be riding as a jockey on race day.
00:15:10I want you to ride ghost.
00:15:12William, what nonsense are you talking about?
00:15:19Who is it?
00:15:23Why did you refuse me?
00:15:25I am a governess.
00:15:26I cannot ride your horse in a race, sir.
00:15:28You're better than any rider I've ever seen.
00:15:30I want you to ride in front of everyone.
00:15:35Are you trying to help me or ruin me?
00:15:38I am helping someone who is underestimated by everyone, including my mother.
00:15:45Fine.
00:15:46I'll ride.
00:15:49Tomorrow morning at six.
00:15:50I'll see you then.
00:15:54No one has ever ridden ghost.
00:15:56You're riding him on race day.
00:16:00I'm just a governess, riding the young master's war horse in a race.
00:16:05Madam will never allow it.
00:16:07Whoever ghost chooses doesn't need my mother's approval.
00:16:10Master William, this is against the rules.
00:16:13I make the rules.
00:16:14Mount up.
00:16:15Let me see what you're truly capable of.
00:16:19Then watch closely.
00:16:26Beautiful.
00:16:28He really does trust me.
00:16:32Waiting for what?
00:16:34Waiting for a rider worth running wild for.
00:16:37I need to rest, Master William.
00:16:39What are you running from?
00:16:41I'm hiding from the man I'm destined to hurt.
00:16:51I can't fall in love with you.
00:16:54I'm sorry.
00:16:59Ghost?
00:17:07Are you waiting for me?
00:17:12Whenever I wanted to run away as a kid, I came here.
00:17:17What did you want to run away from?
00:17:20From my mother.
00:17:21She arranged everything for me, putting a halter on me like I'm just another horse.
00:17:26But you're still riding.
00:17:27You haven't given up.
00:17:29Riding is the only time I can truly be myself.
00:17:32What about you?
00:17:33You must have things you want to run from, too.
00:17:35I've been running my whole life.
00:17:37I don't want to run anymore.
00:17:38Why not?
00:17:38Because when you can't run away anymore, you have to turn around and face it.
00:17:44And when you face me, what do you see?
00:17:49I see a man I shouldn't fall in love with.
00:17:52Then tell me.
00:17:53I shouldn't fall in love with you either, right?
00:17:56Right.
00:17:57You shouldn't fall in love with me.
00:18:04It's too late.
00:18:08Yeah!
00:18:14What exactly are you so afraid of?
00:18:24You've been getting too close to her lately.
00:18:28Who?
00:18:31The governess.
00:18:36Her name is Martha.
00:18:38I don't care what her name is.
00:18:40What I care about is that you let her ride Ghost.
00:18:43A horse you won't even let Miss Green touch.
00:18:46Whoever Ghost chooses doesn't need my approval.
00:18:48You're bewitched by her.
00:18:50Do you even know who she is?
00:18:53She is Martha Hart.
00:18:54A graduate of Bath College for young ladies.
00:18:59That's what she claims, but you haven't looked into it.
00:19:03Don't make a fool of yourself, son.
00:19:10Elliot, your veterinary clinic in Dulcet is well hidden.
00:19:13If there are ever any retired war horses that need a home, I'll send them to you.
00:19:18You're the only brother I trust with my life from the 7th Cavalry.
00:19:21I'm counting on you.
00:19:25Your tea, Master William.
00:19:29It's getting late.
00:19:30You should get some rest.
00:19:33Martha.
00:19:35What is it?
00:19:37Is there anything you want to tell me?
00:19:40No, Master William.
00:19:42Good night.
00:19:44To the joy of our gathering.
00:19:50Brother William, will you accompany me to the Bath Horse Races next week?
00:20:00I'm not going.
00:20:02Then I'm not going either.
00:20:06Miss Green came to Ashford Manor entirely for your sake.
00:20:13Mother, I am a human being, not an exhibit.
00:20:35Stay away from William.
00:20:37I am merely doing my job.
00:20:40I know exactly what you're up to, but who do you think you are?
00:20:47This is the only decent dress I own.
00:20:51Miss Green, your upbringing truly shows.
00:20:54You...
00:20:55How dare you speak to me like that?
00:20:57I will remember this glass of wine.
00:21:00You crazy woman!
00:21:03I'll make you pay back a thousand times over for what you owe me tonight.
00:21:08Yes.
00:21:10Verified that the purchase records contradict the Bath medical records.
00:21:13Confirmed that the signature on the paper from the Loire Valley in France is forged.
00:21:24Forging the dude of transfer.
00:21:26I'm getting closer to you, Cecilia.
00:21:34Miss Martha!
00:21:37Isabella, what's wrong?
00:21:38I had a nightmare.
00:21:40I dreamt that mother didn't want me anymore.
00:21:43That won't happen, Isabella.
00:21:44I'm right here.
00:21:49She had a nightmare.
00:21:51It's all right.
00:21:51I'll coax her to sleep.
00:21:53Okay.
00:22:03You are very good to her.
00:22:06What about you?
00:22:08Who is good to you?
00:22:10I don't need anyone to be good to me.
00:22:12Master William, please leave.
00:22:13I need to close the door.
00:22:18Good night, Martha.
00:22:21I can't be soft-hearted.
00:22:23I absolutely cannot.
00:22:28You're walking too fast, Miss Martha.
00:22:30Do you have any orders, madam?
00:22:32You and William have been getting too close lately.
00:22:34Is he teaching you to ride?
00:22:35The young master is merely passionate about horsemanship and gave me a few points in passing.
00:22:39And have you taught Isabella to ride?
00:22:41Not yet.
00:22:41Isabella needs more time to build her confidence around horses.
00:22:44So you haven't taught Isabella to ride, yet you spend two hours every day with William at the training ring?
00:22:50Madam, if you do not wish me to teach Isabella, I can stop the training.
00:22:53But a noble lady who doesn't even dare approach a horse will be a laughingstock no matter which estate she
00:22:57marries into.
00:22:58Wouldn't you agree?
00:22:59Do you think you can use Isabella as leverage against me?
00:23:01I am merely stating facts.
00:23:03Isabella needs me.
00:23:04She must learn to ride.
00:23:05If the master didn't think you could keep Isabella calm, you'd have been thrown out of the estate today.
00:23:09Don't try to seduce William.
00:23:11You'd best know your place.
00:23:12My only intention is to do my job as a governess.
00:23:15It had better be.
00:23:23What did my mother just say to you?
00:23:25Madam was merely inquiring about Isabella's progress in riding.
00:23:29You're lying.
00:23:30I saw the look on her face.
00:23:32Young master, please let me go.
00:23:34We are in the hallway.
00:23:37She warned me to stay away from you.
00:23:39Are you satisfied now?
00:23:42She has no right to dictate who I associate with.
00:23:45She has the right to dismiss me.
00:23:47Please don't cause trouble for me, young master.
00:23:49I will handle this!
00:23:54Come on, reach out your hand.
00:23:56She's very gentle.
00:23:58I don't dare!
00:23:59She'll bite me!
00:24:02She's not afraid of you.
00:24:03And you shouldn't be afraid of her either.
00:24:06You two are equals.
00:24:07Just try once.
00:24:16She can feel you.
00:24:20She's so warm!
00:24:28You're much better at this than I imagined.
00:24:30I understand the feeling of fear better than anyone.
00:24:34Then what are you afraid of?
00:24:37I'm afraid that when she grows up, she'll become someone I don't recognize.
00:24:42Bitch.
00:24:47Stop right there, Martha!
00:24:50Madam, here is the key to the dressing room.
00:24:53Starting tomorrow, you are reassigned there to manage the wardrobe.
00:24:56Isabella no longer needs you for her daily lessons.
00:24:59Have I done something wrong, madam?
00:25:02Your mistake was thinking you could climb into the young master's bed.
00:25:05Henrietta saw everything.
00:25:07If Isabella hadn't thrown a tantrum crying for you to stay,
00:25:09and if the master didn't want to be accused of mistreating servants right before the races,
00:25:12you'd already have been thrown out of Ashford.
00:25:14It seems Miss Henrietta's eyesight is far better than her horsemanship.
00:25:18How dare you!
00:25:19Madam, I will obey your orders.
00:25:22Remember your place.
00:25:24Kicking me out of the study and reassigning me to the dressing room,
00:25:27Cecilia, you think just handed me the keys to the very heart of where you hide your secrets?
00:25:33I am pleased to announce that Miss Henrietta will be taking up permanent residence at the estate
00:25:38to assist with Isabella's etiquette education.
00:25:42Excellent.
00:25:44Miss Green's upbringing is widely acknowledged.
00:25:47Mother, why didn't you consult me before arranging for Miss Green to stay?
00:25:51William, I'm only here to help you all.
00:25:53I...
00:25:54Mother, I am a man, not a puppet.
00:25:57I don't need anyone teaching me how to live my life.
00:26:01Sit down, William!
00:26:10Enjoy your meal, everyone.
00:26:21You did this.
00:26:23Young Master, what are you talking about?
00:26:29How could I possibly have the ability to manipulate Madam?
00:26:32You're too clever.
00:26:33What exactly do you want from me?
00:26:35What are you afraid of?
00:26:37Afraid you might actually fall for her.
00:26:42What nonsense is this?
00:26:43You're furious because you've realized your rebellion means absolutely nothing to Madam.
00:26:51You don't understand me at all!
00:26:54I don't need to.
00:27:10Investigation confirms the Grey family's assets from back then were ultimately laundered to the Lavore Valley in France.
00:27:14The recipient is a French Count, Louis de Montaude.
00:27:19Cecilia didn't just forge the transfer deed.
00:27:21She's been secretly moving assets to France.
00:27:23Why would she be sending money to a French Count?
00:27:26Once this money laundering ring is completely exposed,
00:27:28the Ashford estate will face a grave charge of treason.
00:27:31By then, William will lose all his wealth
00:27:34and even bear a stigma he can never wash out.
00:27:36You can't go soft, Annie.
00:27:38He's just Cecilia's son.
00:27:39He's just a tool for you to tear down this estate's defenses.
00:27:41You absolutely cannot develop feelings for him.
00:27:45Who's there?
00:27:47Can't sleep.
00:27:48Come out and look at the stars.
00:27:51Young Master, it's too late.
00:27:53Please go back.
00:27:54If you don't come down,
00:27:56I'll light this lamp.
00:27:58Let the Night Watch Butler see whose window I'm standing under.
00:28:10You could have ridden your own horse.
00:28:12The stables were locked.
00:28:14I only managed to sneak out one.
00:28:16Slow down.
00:28:21Get down.
00:28:27Young Master.
00:28:31It's very quiet here.
00:28:33What exactly are you trying to do?
00:28:35Martha,
00:28:36I don't care who you were in the past
00:28:38or what you're hiding.
00:28:39I just want to tell you that I am on your side.
00:28:43You don't know me.
00:28:44Don't say such things so lightly.
00:28:49Then tell me who you are.
00:29:00Tell me.
00:29:02What if one day you find out
00:29:03that I only approached you
00:29:04to destroy your entire family?
00:29:07Then I would first ask you.
00:29:09When you destroyed me,
00:29:11did your heart ache
00:29:12for even a single moment?
00:29:15You're on my side
00:29:16because you don't know me yet.
00:29:20I won't give up!
00:29:22You hesitated just now.
00:29:24That's enough.
00:29:28Why is there a hard lump
00:29:30in such heavy fabric?
00:29:37Thank you for providing
00:29:38the garrison deployment map
00:29:39of the southern port
00:29:40of the Ashford Estate.
00:29:41The gold has been deposited
00:29:42into your account
00:29:43in the Luan Valley.
00:29:44Your loyalty to France
00:29:45will bring you boundless wealth.
00:29:46She didn't just launder
00:29:47the Grey family's money to France.
00:29:49She's actually using
00:29:50the Ashfordly shipping route
00:29:51to sell military intelligence.
00:29:53This is high treason!
00:29:58Martha,
00:29:58is the evening gown
00:29:59I asked you to iron ready?
00:30:01Yes, madam.
00:30:03The gown is ironed.
00:30:04I was just checking
00:30:05this old cloak.
00:30:06The lining has a few
00:30:06loose threads
00:30:07that need mending.
00:30:09I haven't worn
00:30:09that cloak in years.
00:30:11Don't bother mending it.
00:30:12Just burn it.
00:30:12And hurry up.
00:30:13Don't dawdle.
00:30:14Yes, madam.
00:30:16Forging a will.
00:30:17Money laundering.
00:30:18High treason.
00:30:20Cecilia,
00:30:20you're taking
00:30:21the Ashford family
00:30:22down with you.
00:30:26Why are you so pale?
00:30:27What happened
00:30:28in the dressing room?
00:30:29Let go, young master.
00:30:30I was just overwhelmed
00:30:31by the smell
00:30:32of mothongs in there.
00:30:34You never look me
00:30:35in the eye
00:30:35when you lie.
00:30:37Tell me the truth.
00:30:39You can't handle
00:30:40my truth.
00:30:41Let me go.
00:30:42Then let's see
00:30:43if I can handle it
00:30:44or not.
00:30:46Haven't you always
00:30:46wanted to know
00:30:47who I am?
00:30:48One day I'll make you
00:30:49watch with your own eyes
00:30:50as everything
00:30:51in this estate
00:30:51is completely destroyed.
00:30:53Then I'll wait
00:30:54for that day.
00:30:55As long as it's you
00:30:56who does it.
00:31:07The letter from earlier
00:31:08mentioned an account
00:31:09in the Loire Valley
00:31:09which means she has
00:31:10a complete ledger
00:31:11of her transnational assets.
00:31:13Cecilia would never dare
00:31:14keep such a fatal ledger
00:31:15in the dressing room.
00:31:16She must have hidden it
00:31:16somewhere she can keep
00:31:17an eye on it every day.
00:31:20Here it is.
00:31:28The asset transfer records
00:31:29from 20 years ago.
00:31:31You really did launder
00:31:32all the great family's
00:31:33money to France.
00:31:41She's back early.
00:31:48Don't make a sound.
00:31:52Who's there?
00:31:56Probably just a rat.
00:31:58You were following me?
00:32:00I saved you.
00:32:00What on earth
00:32:01were you looking for
00:32:01sneaking into my mother's
00:32:02room in the middle
00:32:03of the night?
00:32:03I was looking for
00:32:04how much blood
00:32:05and how many bones
00:32:06are hidden beneath
00:32:06your mother's
00:32:07noble and loving mask.
00:32:08Young master,
00:32:09you're so eager
00:32:10to protect her.
00:32:11Are you truly oblivious
00:32:12to her true colors
00:32:13or are you just
00:32:13deceiving yourself
00:32:14to hold on to
00:32:15your privileged life
00:32:15as the young master?
00:32:22The evidence is conclusive.
00:32:24Please prepare the charges.
00:32:31Who is it?
00:32:32Are you writing a letter?
00:32:33Just writing to a distant
00:32:35cousin to tell them
00:32:35I'm safe.
00:32:36Do you need something,
00:32:37young master?
00:32:41Drink something hot.
00:32:42You had a scare tonight.
00:32:45Thank you, young master.
00:32:47I'm going to rest now.
00:32:48Aunt Cecilia,
00:32:50someone saw Miss Martha
00:32:51rushing out of the corridor
00:32:53near your dressing room
00:32:54last night
00:32:54looking very sneaky.
00:32:56You must be mistaken,
00:32:58Miss Green.
00:32:58I was in the kitchen
00:32:59all last night
00:33:00preparing hot milk
00:33:01for Miss Isabella.
00:33:05Then why didn't you
00:33:06use the servant's passage?
00:33:08Why did you have to
00:33:09go through my corridor?
00:33:11Enough!
00:33:12Are you interrogating
00:33:13a prisoner?
00:33:14William,
00:33:15I was just worried
00:33:16that auntie might
00:33:16have lost something.
00:33:18Miss Martha has been
00:33:19very busy lately,
00:33:20busy teaching
00:33:21and busy taking
00:33:22midnight strolls.
00:33:23It's best to know
00:33:24your place.
00:33:26You are right
00:33:27to reprimand me,
00:33:28madam.
00:33:28I will stick
00:33:29to my own path.
00:33:32What exactly
00:33:33did you steal
00:33:34from my room?
00:33:37I never entered
00:33:38your room.
00:33:39If you've lost
00:33:39something, madam,
00:33:40perhaps you should
00:33:41ask the butler.
00:33:42You have no right
00:33:43to treat her
00:33:44like this!
00:33:47You dare speak
00:33:48to me like this
00:33:48for a countrywoman?
00:33:51She's not a countrywoman.
00:33:53She's someone
00:33:54I care about.
00:33:58You shouldn't have
00:33:58provoked her
00:33:59for my sake.
00:33:59It does you no good.
00:34:00I protect what's mine.
00:34:02I don't need
00:34:03to weigh the benefits.
00:34:04I am not yours.
00:34:06If I win on the day
00:34:07of the horse race,
00:34:08you have to promise
00:34:09me one thing.
00:34:10What is it?
00:34:11Do you want me
00:34:11to leave the estate?
00:34:13I'll tell you
00:34:14when the time comes.
00:34:15Do you dare to promise?
00:34:19Alright, I promise.
00:34:21Whatever you ask for,
00:34:22I'll do it.
00:34:27then remember
00:34:28your promise.
00:34:33It's impossible
00:34:34that there's nothing.
00:34:35She must have
00:34:36hidden it somewhere.
00:34:44Madam,
00:34:45what are you looking
00:34:45for in my room?
00:34:47Don't think
00:34:47you've hidden
00:34:48yourself well.
00:34:50If it has no past,
00:34:51it means their past
00:34:52is shameful
00:34:53to see the light of day.
00:34:54My past is perfectly clean,
00:34:56but you, Madam,
00:34:57searching so desperately,
00:34:58are you afraid
00:34:58your own shameful past
00:34:59will be discovered?
00:35:02Don't be too smug
00:35:03just yet.
00:35:04We'll see about that.
00:35:09On the day
00:35:09of the horses,
00:35:10I've invited
00:35:10Mr. Phillips from Bartha.
00:35:12We need to get
00:35:12the estate's property
00:35:13notification sorted up
00:35:14in a principle.
00:35:16Property notification?
00:35:17Why the sudden
00:35:18need for this?
00:35:24Mother,
00:35:25are you in such a rush
00:35:26to transfer the property
00:35:27because you're afraid
00:35:27the court will come after you?
00:35:28I am simply
00:35:29protecting this family.
00:35:30No one will take
00:35:31what's mine
00:35:32from my hands.
00:35:38Madam is right.
00:35:40What belongs to someone
00:35:41will eventually
00:35:42return to their hands.
00:35:52that's because he knows
00:35:53he finally gets
00:35:53to run tomorrow.
00:35:57Sir, you should be
00:35:58resting in your room,
00:35:59not out here.
00:36:00Miss Martha!
00:36:01Mother and Miss Green
00:36:02are arguing about my father.
00:36:04I'm so scared!
00:36:06Don't be afraid, Isabella.
00:36:07I'm right here.
00:36:08no one is going
00:36:09to hurt you.
00:36:11I'm here too.
00:36:12Everything's alright.
00:36:14Sir, please let me go.
00:36:15You're so good to her,
00:36:16but who looks out for you?
00:36:20I'll take her back
00:36:20to her room.
00:36:24I'll carry her.
00:36:25Wait for me outside.
00:36:27Yes, sir.
00:36:30Tomorrow is the race.
00:36:31Once the trap is sprung,
00:36:32he'll lose everything.
00:36:33As the one meant
00:36:34to destroy his family,
00:36:35how can I go soft now?
00:36:38No matter what happens tomorrow,
00:36:39I made you a promise.
00:36:40Anything you ask.
00:36:41What if I ask for something
00:36:41you could never give?
00:36:42What if giving it means
00:36:43losing everything you have?
00:36:44How will you keep your word then?
00:36:45As long as I have breath
00:36:46in my body,
00:36:47whatever you want,
00:36:48it's yours.
00:36:49He's promising me his life,
00:36:51yet I'm the one here
00:36:52to destroy him.
00:36:53If he knew who I really was,
00:36:54he would never say such things.
00:36:56You say you'll give me everything,
00:36:57then look closely at this.
00:36:58Do you have any idea
00:36:58who is standing
00:36:59right in front of you?
00:37:05Never be tamed.
00:37:08Is this yours?
00:37:10Who are you, really?
00:37:11It's better that you
00:37:12don't recognize it.
00:37:13If you don't recognize
00:37:13the little hill girl
00:37:14from Backendist
00:37:15with our exigation,
00:37:16it's not mine.
00:37:17It was given to me
00:37:17by someone who means
00:37:18the world to me.
00:37:19You could never replace him
00:37:20in my heart,
00:37:20and I certainly don't need
00:37:21your charity.
00:37:21Who is it?
00:37:22A man or a woman?
00:37:23Where is he?
00:37:23That is none of your concern.
00:37:24Stay away from me, sir.
00:37:28Welcome, everyone.
00:37:30Today, our governess,
00:37:31Miss Martha,
00:37:32will be overseeing
00:37:33the horses.
00:37:36Miss Martha,
00:37:37I do hope you've
00:37:39polished my saddle thoroughly.
00:37:41I'd late to dirty my hands.
00:37:48In the third race today,
00:37:51Miss Martha Hart
00:37:52will be riding ghosts.
00:37:54William,
00:37:55what ride does a governess
00:37:56have to ride your war horse?
00:37:58Sir,
00:37:59I'm ready.
00:38:09You're going to lose
00:38:10miserably
00:38:11and tumble off
00:38:12that horse
00:38:12like a clown!
00:38:15Miss Green,
00:38:17out on the track,
00:38:18it's not about pedigree.
00:38:20It's about nerve.
00:38:21Then let's see
00:38:22what you're really made of!
00:38:26Hi-ya!
00:38:32Dammit!
00:38:33Faster!
00:38:42My leg!
00:38:48Whoa!
00:38:49Oh!
00:38:55Martha!
00:38:58You won!
00:38:59You did it!
00:39:00You did it!
00:39:01Sir, everyone is watching.
00:39:02Please let go.
00:39:03I don't care what they think.
00:39:04But I do.
00:39:08Madam,
00:39:09your horses are in prime condition.
00:39:10The race was a complete success.
00:39:12Congratulations, Miss Martha.
00:39:14You're quite full of surprises,
00:39:16aren't you?
00:39:16You flatter me, madam.
00:39:18Who exactly are you?
00:39:23Take a guess.
00:39:26You.
00:39:29I must go tend to the horses now.
00:39:35You made quite a spectacle
00:39:37of yourself today.
00:39:38What is your endgame?
00:39:41I merely rode a horse, madam.
00:39:43You rode my son's horse
00:39:44and beat the guest I invited.
00:39:46Are you declaring war on me?
00:39:48Perhaps next time
00:39:49I should beat Miss Green's father instead.
00:39:50You're dead.
00:39:51You remind me of someone.
00:39:52A student I chose 20 years ago.
00:39:55Her name was Annie Gray.
00:39:56Is that so?
00:39:57Whatever happened to her?
00:39:59Dead.
00:40:00Her entire family is dead.
00:40:03You must be heart-breaking, madam.
00:40:06Don't get too smug.
00:40:12Sue.
00:40:19What were you and my mother
00:40:20talking about in the garden?
00:40:21Madam was simply complimenting my riding.
00:40:24You're lying again.
00:40:26What exactly are you plotting?
00:40:28That's none of your concern.
00:40:29Please step aside.
00:40:32Everything has changed
00:40:33since you arrived in this house.
00:40:36Are you going to tell me
00:40:37it has nothing to do with you?
00:40:40And if it is me,
00:40:41what will you do about it?
00:40:42Kill me?
00:40:45I could never do that.
00:40:55The evidence is conclusive.
00:40:57The royal court can formally
00:40:58indict Mrs. Ashford
00:40:59for forging a will
00:41:00and transferring assets.
00:41:01Once convicted,
00:41:02the estate will be seized.
00:41:03William will lose everything.
00:41:07Lose everything.
00:41:13I've been searching for 20 years.
00:41:15I can't stop now.
00:41:19Proceed.
00:41:23I'm sorry.
00:41:27Sir.
00:41:28My mother was digging
00:41:29into your background yesterday.
00:41:30On this piece of paper
00:41:31is the address of a comrade in arm
00:41:33in Dorsick.
00:41:33It's a blind spot
00:41:34for the Ashford family's influence.
00:41:36Elliot,
00:41:36this is the comrade
00:41:37from the 7th Cavalry
00:41:38he secretly contacted.
00:41:39I can't believe
00:41:40he handed his last lifeline over.
00:41:41I don't need a way out.
00:41:43Keep it.
00:41:44I'm begging you.
00:41:54I used the excuse
00:41:55of delivering a letter
00:41:56for your sick aunt
00:41:57to get the butler
00:41:57to let me in.
00:41:58I can't stay long.
00:41:59The trial is set
00:41:59for three months from now
00:42:00and the filing documents
00:42:01have already been submitted.
00:42:02You shouldn't have risked
00:42:03exposing yourself
00:42:03by coming here in person.
00:42:05But since the case is filed,
00:42:06it's moving faster
00:42:07than I expected.
00:42:07I'll be careful.
00:42:08A distant cousin
00:42:08from the countryside.
00:42:09He dresses like
00:42:10a respectable gentleman
00:42:11who frequents the courthouse.
00:42:12The vibe between them
00:42:13doesn't feel like family at all.
00:42:20Are you sure
00:42:21you want to do this?
00:42:23Once the trial begins,
00:42:25William will lose everything
00:42:27and the estate
00:42:29will be seized by the crown.
00:42:34What he's losing
00:42:36was stolen from me
00:42:37in the first place.
00:42:48Who was that man?
00:42:51Is he really your cousin?
00:42:55Let me go.
00:42:57His name is Thomas
00:42:58and of course
00:42:58he's my cousin.
00:43:02The way he looks at you,
00:43:04he doesn't look at you
00:43:05like a cousin.
00:43:09Then how does he look at me?
00:43:16The same way I look at you.
00:43:22You're crazy, young master.
00:43:23Please behave yourself.
00:43:31I'm going crazy
00:43:32with jealousies, Martha.
00:43:36I don't know
00:43:37what you're talking about!
00:43:43Come down.
00:43:44No one will disturb us here.
00:43:47What exactly
00:43:48do you want to tell me?
00:43:52I want to tell you
00:43:53to stop pretending.
00:43:55Your writing skills,
00:43:56your flawless
00:43:56French pronunciation,
00:43:57the look in your eyes
00:43:58when you read
00:43:59that French appraisal.
00:44:00You're no country governess.
00:44:02Who exactly are you?
00:44:03Anyone can learn
00:44:04if they read enough books.
00:44:05Young master,
00:44:06you're observing too much
00:44:07and it won't do you any good.
00:44:08Because I love you.
00:44:10No matter how many secrets
00:44:11you're hiding,
00:44:12I can't stop myself
00:44:14from looking into your eyes.
00:44:15You're insane.
00:44:17You don't even know
00:44:18my real name.
00:44:19You've fallen in love
00:44:20with a mask,
00:44:20a phantom
00:44:21that doesn't even exist.
00:44:23Then take off the mask
00:44:24and show me.
00:44:26Whether underneath
00:44:27is a noble
00:44:27or a fugitive,
00:44:29no matter what you're hiding,
00:44:30I can handle it.
00:44:31No, you can't!
00:44:32Underneath this mask
00:44:33is a demon
00:44:33who will drag you
00:44:34straight to hell!
00:44:35I'm begging you,
00:44:36take back your feelings
00:44:37and stay away from me!
00:44:37If it's hell,
00:44:38then I'll go down with you!
00:44:46You'll regret
00:44:47ever meeting me!
00:44:51Martha Hart,
00:44:52real name Annie Gray.
00:44:54Twenty years ago,
00:44:55your father committed suicide
00:44:56over debts
00:44:57and your mother
00:44:57was sent to an asylum.
00:44:58What did you say?
00:45:00She's the child
00:45:00of the bankrupt Gray family
00:45:01from back then.
00:45:02You found out fast,
00:45:03madam.
00:45:04You're a bit smarter
00:45:04than I expected.
00:45:06So you admit it.
00:45:07You came here for revenge.
00:45:09I admit it.
00:45:10I am Annie Gray.
00:45:11You won the horse race
00:45:13and you won my son's heart,
00:45:14but you don't know me at all.
00:45:15I am someone
00:45:16who will do
00:45:16whatever it takes
00:45:17to survive.
00:45:23What a coincidence.
00:45:25So am I.
00:45:28Mother?
00:45:29Father?
00:45:30What's going on here?
00:45:35nothing, darling.
00:45:37We were just discussing
00:45:37some matters of the past
00:45:38with Miss Martha.
00:45:43Those documents,
00:45:45what do they say?
00:45:54Stop right there.
00:45:55You looked awful
00:45:56coming out of the study.
00:45:57What happened?
00:45:59Your mother found out
00:46:00my true identity.
00:46:02Are you satisfied now?
00:46:03What is your identity?
00:46:05My name is Annie Gray.
00:46:07Twenty years ago,
00:46:08your mother was my family's
00:46:09French tutor.
00:46:10She stole our entire fortune,
00:46:11killed my father
00:46:12and drove my mother insane.
00:46:15You approaching me
00:46:16was also for revenge.
00:46:19Yes.
00:46:21Then what about the nights
00:46:22we watched the stars
00:46:23on the hillside?
00:46:24The afternoons
00:46:25you taught me to ride?
00:46:26Were they all fake?
00:46:30They were all part
00:46:31of my plan.
00:46:34So you never had
00:46:35any feelings for me?
00:46:37No.
00:46:40Why couldn't you
00:46:41look me in the eye
00:46:42when you said no?
00:46:48Let me go!
00:46:53Then keep hating.
00:46:55I don't care anymore.
00:47:02I'm sorry.
00:47:04I'm so sorry.
00:47:08Go, hurry.
00:47:10Cecilia knows who I am
00:47:11and she's going to kill me.
00:47:12Higher.
00:47:13The escape route
00:47:14to Bar Station
00:47:14is blocked by Cecilia's men.
00:47:16The southern ports
00:47:17are all sealed off.
00:47:18We can't get out.
00:47:22Go to Doris.
00:47:26Doris?
00:47:27We have no backup there.
00:47:29To Elliot's veterinary clinic.
00:47:31It's the only blind spot
00:47:32in Cecilia's territory
00:47:33and our only way out now.
00:47:39Excuse me.
00:47:39Is Mr. Elliot Sanders here?
00:47:43Come inside.
00:47:44The fire is warm.
00:47:45Did William ask you
00:47:46to catch me?
00:47:47Did he know I used him
00:47:49so he figured the city
00:47:49would be locked down
00:47:50and I'd have no choice
00:47:51but to walk right into a trap
00:47:52using the address he gave me?
00:47:53He figured you'd have
00:47:54to come here.
00:47:55A week ago
00:47:55when he slipped you this address
00:47:56he wrote to me
00:47:57asking me to prepare
00:47:58the safest guest room.
00:47:59He said if a girl named Martha
00:48:00had nowhere else to turn
00:48:01I was to protect her.
00:48:02And two hours ago
00:48:02an exhaust express source
00:48:03delivered his urgent message.
00:48:04The messenger told me
00:48:05your real name is Annie Gray.
00:48:06He knows who I am.
00:48:08He knows I lied to him
00:48:08for so long
00:48:09and he still asked you
00:48:09to protect me?
00:48:10He's a fool.
00:48:12He knows perfectly well
00:48:13you tore his heart out
00:48:14yet he still handed
00:48:15his trump card to you.
00:48:17He should hate me
00:48:18to the bone.
00:48:20I don't deserve this.
00:48:23Whether you deserve it
00:48:24or not isn't up to you
00:48:24to decide.
00:48:26Stay here.
00:48:27Not even Cecilia's men
00:48:28can cross the threshold
00:48:29of the 7th Cavalry.
00:48:31William.
00:48:33Why are you so good to me?
00:48:40Wash your face
00:48:41before you sleep.
00:48:42You look as pale
00:48:42as a ghost.
00:48:45I'm fine.
00:48:46His messenger
00:48:47also instructed
00:48:48that if you get sick
00:48:49we use the best medicine
00:48:50and if anyone bullies you
00:48:51I'm to notify him immediately.
00:48:54He's crazy.
00:48:55I've already driven
00:48:56his mother to a dead end.
00:48:57He's not crazy.
00:48:58You are.
00:48:59Do you have any idea
00:49:00how much he fought
00:49:01with Cecilia
00:49:01just to keep you safe
00:49:02as his trump card?
00:49:04That was his own choice.
00:49:05I never asked him to.
00:49:10Your mouth is much tougher
00:49:11than your heart.
00:49:13If one day he really dies
00:49:14I hope you can still say that.
00:49:16He won't die!
00:49:18I will make sure he lives.
00:49:26Then prove it to me.
00:49:33William.
00:49:34You haven't left your room
00:49:35in three days.
00:49:36I brought you some hot tea.
00:49:41I'm coming in.
00:49:43Get out!
00:49:45Don't make me say it again.
00:49:47Nobody bothers me.
00:49:49I just care about you.
00:49:51That bitch has already
00:49:52been driven away.
00:49:53Why are you still
00:49:54treating me like this?
00:49:55Shut up!
00:49:56You say one more word
00:49:57about her
00:49:58and I'll throw you
00:49:59out of here myself.
00:50:03Mm-hmm.
00:50:17Lunatics.
00:50:18You're all crazy.
00:50:20I'm glad you've come
00:50:21to your senses, William.
00:50:22She's just a governess.
00:50:24She's not worth
00:50:24ruining your health over.
00:50:26You knew who she was.
00:50:27You also knew
00:50:28she came to the manor
00:50:29for revenge.
00:50:30Why didn't you tell me?
00:50:31I have no idea
00:50:32what you're talking about.
00:50:33Her father ran his business
00:50:34poorly and went bankrupt.
00:50:35The whole of Bath
00:50:35knows that.
00:50:36Whenever you lie,
00:50:37your left eyebrow
00:50:38twitches up.
00:50:39You've always done that.
00:50:41Watch your tone with me.
00:50:42I am your mother.
00:50:46I've lived a lie
00:50:46for over 20 years.
00:50:48I don't believe
00:50:49a word you say.
00:50:51You take the word
00:50:52of a woman
00:50:52who wants to destroy
00:50:53our entire family
00:50:54over your own mother?
00:50:57I am taking
00:50:58the side of the truth.
00:50:59I will not trust
00:51:00someone who has
00:51:01liked me my entire life.
00:51:04That ungrateful wretch.
00:51:17You shouldn't be
00:51:18walking down this road.
00:51:19It's too secluded.
00:51:23You shouldn't be here.
00:51:24Your mother will find out.
00:51:30Let her.
00:51:32Let go of me!
00:51:35I rode for four hours
00:51:36straight to find you.
00:51:37You're going to look
00:51:38at me today.
00:51:39There is nothing left
00:51:40for us to say
00:51:41to each other.
00:51:41I only want to ask you
00:51:42one thing.
00:51:44I understand why
00:51:45you hate my mother.
00:51:46But what we had
00:51:48was any of it
00:51:49even for a single
00:51:50second real.
00:51:52You can't let your
00:51:53feelings destroy you.
00:51:54They already have.
00:51:57The moment you
00:51:57smiled at me
00:51:58on that hill
00:51:58I was already ruined.
00:52:00I will give you
00:52:01an answer.
00:52:03But not now.
00:52:08Then when?
00:52:11When all of this
00:52:11is over.
00:52:14I'll wait for you.
00:52:16Even if you tear
00:52:16the world apart
00:52:17but I will wait
00:52:18for you.
00:52:36Was it him?
00:52:39Why is he doing this?
00:52:41He could have just
00:52:41stayed the young master
00:52:42and lived his
00:52:43perfect life.
00:52:45Because he loves you.
00:52:47There are people
00:52:48in this world
00:52:48who deserve
00:52:48to be deeply loved
00:52:49and you are one of them.
00:52:51But I'm going
00:52:52to destroy his family.
00:52:53I don't deserve it
00:52:54at all.
00:52:56Whether you deserve
00:52:57it or not
00:52:57isn't up to you.
00:52:58It's up to him.
00:53:01The trial date
00:53:02is set for seven
00:53:02weeks from now.
00:53:03Please ensure
00:53:04you appear in court
00:53:04to testify.
00:53:05Witnesses include
00:53:05a handwriting expert,
00:53:06a paper appraiser
00:53:07and a former
00:53:08post house attendant.
00:53:09The odds of winning
00:53:10are high.
00:53:10What is this?
00:53:13See you in court.
00:53:15W.
00:53:19Letter from Thomas?
00:53:24The trial is in
00:53:26seven weeks.
00:53:27I will testify.
00:53:28And what about
00:53:29William?
00:53:30Once the verdict
00:53:31is passed,
00:53:32he won't see
00:53:32a single penny.
00:53:34I don't know.
00:53:35I can't care
00:53:36about that anymore.
00:53:38See you in court.
00:53:40He has already
00:53:40made his choice.
00:53:42He chose you.
00:53:44Give it back to me!
00:53:46Admit it, Annie.
00:53:47You wanted him
00:53:47to do this too.
00:53:49You feel guilty,
00:53:50but mostly you're
00:53:50just relieved
00:53:51that he didn't
00:53:51abandon you.
00:53:54Yes!
00:53:55I'm a selfish monster!
00:53:56Are you satisfied now?
00:53:58Eat up.
00:53:59It won't hurt so much
00:54:00once you've eaten.
00:54:04Do you think I'm doing
00:54:05the wrong thing too?
00:54:06I hate his mother
00:54:07to the bone.
00:54:09I dream about
00:54:10killing her
00:54:10every single night.
00:54:15Old, please forgive
00:54:16my sins.
00:54:17I'll keep the one
00:54:18I care about safe.
00:54:23Who's there?
00:54:25My mother has sent
00:54:26people to track you.
00:54:27Until you leave
00:54:28England, be careful.
00:54:30You already know
00:54:31who I am.
00:54:32You could just
00:54:33let them catch me.
00:54:34Then your family
00:54:35would be safe
00:54:35and you wouldn't
00:54:36lose your inheritance.
00:54:37Because I love you.
00:54:41Even though I used you,
00:54:42even though I'm
00:54:42going to send your
00:54:43mother to prison
00:54:44with my own hands.
00:54:45That is a debt
00:54:45our family owes you.
00:54:47If you are doing
00:54:47this for justice,
00:54:48I stand with you.
00:54:52Are you really willing
00:54:53to give up everything
00:54:54for me?
00:54:54Ever since I met you,
00:54:56none of that matters
00:54:56to me anymore.
00:55:00When you asked me
00:55:01on the road
00:55:01if my feelings for you
00:55:02were real,
00:55:03even for a single second,
00:55:04you kept that horse
00:55:05spell I dropped
00:55:06for 20 whole years,
00:55:08how could I possibly
00:55:09feel nothing?
00:55:12Annie,
00:55:13what did you just say?
00:55:15Say it again.
00:55:21Annie!
00:55:23Answer me!
00:55:26I have never lied
00:55:27to my own heart.
00:55:28She loves me.
00:55:31I called you all
00:55:32here today
00:55:33to announce something.
00:55:34I have decided
00:55:35to revise the will
00:55:36and transfer all
00:55:37of the estate's assets
00:55:38under my own name.
00:55:40Are you out of your mind?
00:55:41This estate
00:55:42is my ancestral property.
00:55:44This is the power
00:55:45of a tawny
00:55:46you signed last year
00:55:47in black and white
00:55:48with your signature.
00:55:49Is that so?
00:55:50Let me see.
00:55:52The signature
00:55:52certainly looks
00:55:53like father's
00:55:54but the watermark
00:55:55on this paper
00:55:55is from a mill
00:55:56in the Lude Vallage
00:55:56in France.
00:55:57Father was convalescing
00:55:58in Bath all of last year.
00:55:59Why would he be
00:55:59using French paper?
00:56:00Watch what you say!
00:56:03I will not watch
00:56:04what I say.
00:56:05I have already
00:56:06handed over a copy
00:56:07of this power
00:56:08of eternity
00:56:08along with the evidence
00:56:09of your correspondence
00:56:10with the French Count
00:56:11to the royal court.
00:56:12What did you just say?
00:56:14I've had every single
00:56:15one of your crimes
00:56:16notarized.
00:56:17The trial starts tomorrow.
00:56:20I gave birth to you
00:56:22and raised you
00:56:22and you betray me
00:56:24for an outsider?
00:56:25You betrayed
00:56:25this family first.
00:56:27You stole,
00:56:28you lied,
00:56:28you forged,
00:56:29you committed treason.
00:56:30I'm simply done
00:56:31covering up for you.
00:56:32It's over.
00:56:33It's all over.
00:56:37Where are you going?
00:56:39To bring Annie home.
00:56:45William!
00:56:53The trial is tomorrow.
00:56:55I'm here to take you back.
00:56:58What have you done
00:56:59to yourself?
00:57:00Where is your mother?
00:57:02She's under house arrest
00:57:03at the estate.
00:57:04Come back with me
00:57:05as a witness,
00:57:06as Annie Gray,
00:57:08as the woman I love.
00:57:12If I go back with you
00:57:13and testify,
00:57:14you'll lose
00:57:14your entire inheritance.
00:57:17all of that
00:57:18should have been yours
00:57:18twenty years ago.
00:57:20Let's go home.
00:57:31Are you scared?
00:57:35Of what?
00:57:37Of losing your fortune.
00:57:39Of ending up with nothing.
00:57:42The only thing
00:57:43I'm afraid of losing
00:57:44is you.
00:57:46We'll face this together.
00:57:55I came to see
00:57:56what twenty years
00:57:56of evil looks like
00:57:57when the mask
00:57:58finally comes off.
00:57:59So,
00:57:59what if you win
00:58:00this trial?
00:58:01William loses
00:58:01his inheritance,
00:58:02the estate goes
00:58:03to the crown,
00:58:03and you get
00:58:04absolutely nothing.
00:58:04I have the truth,
00:58:06and there's nowhere
00:58:06left for you to hide.
00:58:09Mother!
00:58:12She's just a child!
00:58:14A child?
00:58:15To me,
00:58:16she's no different
00:58:16than one of your toys.
00:58:19You will never have
00:58:20the chance to hurt
00:58:21anyone ever again.
00:58:22Butler,
00:58:23take my mother
00:58:23to her room.
00:58:26William,
00:58:27is mother a bad person?
00:58:29She did some
00:58:30terrible things,
00:58:31but she's also
00:58:32your mother.
00:58:33It's okay to love her
00:58:34and hate her
00:58:34at the same time.
00:58:36Then I'll just
00:58:37hate her for a little bit.
00:58:48It's the day
00:58:49before the trial.
00:58:50I'm here to ask
00:58:51you one question.
00:58:54Have you come
00:58:55to gloat?
00:58:57Why did you
00:58:58choose my family
00:58:59all those years ago?
00:59:00Because your mother
00:59:01had that exquisite
00:59:01pearl necklace,
00:59:02and your father
00:59:03owned the finest
00:59:04pastures.
00:59:04Just because of that?
00:59:06Greed doesn't require
00:59:07complex justifications.
00:59:08I wanted it,
00:59:09so I took it.
00:59:10Well, now you've
00:59:10lost everything.
00:59:11How do you like
00:59:12this feeling?
00:59:13You hate me.
00:59:14Then live with
00:59:15that hatred.
00:59:16Even when I'm dead,
00:59:17you won't be happy.
00:59:19Maybe I won't be happy,
00:59:21but at least
00:59:21the nightmares
00:59:22will stop.
00:59:32Are you okay?
00:59:35I don't hate her
00:59:36anymore.
00:59:36I'm finally free.
00:59:42Hand me the hammer.
00:59:43Once the trial
00:59:44ends tomorrow,
00:59:45the court will
00:59:45seize the estate.
00:59:46I probably won't
00:59:46even be able to
00:59:47afford a decent
00:59:48saddle.
00:59:48Then I'll be the
00:59:49one providing
00:59:50for you.
00:59:51Once my family's
00:59:52stolen assets
00:59:52are recovered,
00:59:53it'll be more
00:59:53than enough
00:59:54to buy a country
00:59:54farm with a stable.
00:59:56not taking you
00:59:57in.
00:59:58Taking you home,
00:59:59will you come
00:59:59with me?
01:00:00I'd follow you
01:00:01anywhere,
01:00:02even if it means
01:00:02having absolutely
01:00:03nothing.
01:00:04Then close your
01:00:05eyes.
01:00:22who's there?
01:00:26How much did
01:00:27they hear?
01:00:31Your honor,
01:00:32here is the
01:00:32paper authentication
01:00:33report and the
01:00:34forged original will.
01:00:35The chain of
01:00:35evidence is now
01:00:36fully complete.
01:00:37Defendant
01:00:38Cecilia Ashford,
01:00:39do you have any
01:00:40final statements?
01:00:41I admit to what
01:00:42I've done,
01:00:42but everything I did,
01:00:43I did it to give
01:00:44my son a better
01:00:45life.
01:00:46What is your
01:00:47position on this
01:00:48matter?
01:00:49Everything you did,
01:00:50you did for
01:00:50yourself.
01:00:53High treason,
01:00:54forgery of a will
01:00:55and inheritance
01:00:56is crushed.
01:00:56All three charges
01:00:57are upheld.
01:00:58I hereby sentence
01:00:59you to life in
01:01:00prison and all of
01:01:01your assets shall
01:01:02be seized by the
01:01:03crown.
01:01:14It's all right.
01:01:15Just let it out.
01:01:17You'll be fine.
01:01:21I hate her,
01:01:23but part of me
01:01:24still hurts for her.
01:01:27It's okay to feel
01:01:29both.
01:01:29It's finally over.
01:01:35It traces back
01:01:36to your family's
01:01:37stolen estate
01:01:3720 years ago.
01:01:38I filed a claim
01:01:39for restitution.
01:01:39It's not much,
01:01:40but it's enough
01:01:41for you to start
01:01:41over.
01:01:42It was never
01:01:43about the money.
01:01:44I know,
01:01:44but it's what
01:01:45your father left
01:01:46you.
01:01:46It's what you
01:01:47deserve.
01:01:49Thank you,
01:01:49Thomas.
01:01:50I want to bring
01:01:51my mother home
01:01:52from the sanitarium.
01:01:53We'll go together
01:01:54first thing tomorrow
01:01:55morning and bring
01:01:56her home.
01:01:57It's finally over,
01:01:58Annie.
01:01:59Try to be happy
01:02:00from now on.
01:02:01You too,
01:02:01Elliot.
01:02:02Thank you for
01:02:03taking me in.
01:02:03You still owe me
01:02:04a horse.
01:02:05The Grey Marys is
01:02:06yours.
01:02:07Send someone to
01:02:07fetch her tomorrow.
01:02:08Good luck to both
01:02:09of you.
01:02:16I don't have a
01:02:17manor anymore,
01:02:18or an inheritance.
01:02:21Having you is
01:02:22more than enough.
01:02:26We'll go get her
01:02:27tomorrow.
01:02:40Mom, I'm here
01:02:42to take you home.
01:02:44Who are you?
01:02:49It's me, Mom.
01:02:50It's your Annie.
01:02:54Annie, you've
01:02:56grown so much.
01:02:57It's me!
01:02:57I'm so sorry, Mom.
01:02:59I'm so late.
01:03:02It's so bright.
01:03:05We're going home, Mom.
01:03:10Did you find it?
01:03:13I found it.
01:03:15That's good.
01:03:17Let's get in.
01:03:18We're going home.
01:03:30I came to apologize.
01:03:33Please come in.
01:03:34It's windy out there.
01:03:35How did you find
01:03:36this place?
01:03:38William wrote to me.
01:03:39He said he would
01:03:40only forgive me
01:03:41if you did.
01:03:43You asked her to come?
01:03:45I didn't say that.
01:03:46I just said the decision
01:03:47was entirely yours.
01:03:48Thank you for not
01:03:49hating me.
01:03:50I used to think
01:03:50bloodlines meant
01:03:51everything.
01:03:52I used to hate
01:03:53a lot of people.
01:03:54But hating is too
01:03:55exhausting.
01:03:55I don't want to do
01:03:56it anymore.
01:03:57You are truly too good.
01:03:59You just wanted me
01:04:00to let go of
01:04:00the very last
01:04:01piece of the past.
01:04:02No.
01:04:03I'm not a good man.
01:04:05I'm just an ordinary
01:04:06man who loves you.
01:04:11Then love only me.
01:04:13It has always been
01:04:14only you.
01:04:18If you have any
01:04:18shred of kindness
01:04:19left, don't let him
01:04:21spend the rest of his
01:04:21life atoning for my
01:04:22sins.
01:04:23Cecilia.
01:04:29Is it from the prison?
01:04:30You don't have to
01:04:31read it.
01:04:31I've already finished
01:04:32it.
01:04:33You should read it
01:04:33too.
01:04:34It's meant for you.
01:04:36She's begging for
01:04:37my forgiveness.
01:04:41Will you forgive her?
01:04:47No.
01:04:48But I can stop
01:04:49hating her.
01:04:52Are you cold?
01:04:54If all of that was
01:04:55built on a lie,
01:04:56do you regret losing
01:04:57the manor in your
01:04:57title?
01:04:58It wasn't a loss.
01:04:59It was a release.
01:05:00The only thing I was
01:05:01truly afraid of losing
01:05:02is still right here
01:05:03with me.
01:05:05I used you for so
01:05:05long and now you're
01:05:06stuck with me for the
01:05:07rest of your life.
01:05:08Don't you feel like
01:05:09you got the short
01:05:09end of the deal?
01:05:12Definitely.
01:05:13I wouldn't have it
01:05:14any other way.
01:05:16I do.
01:05:20Mommy, it's so soft.
01:05:21I want to ride a
01:05:22horse.
01:05:24This one is too
01:05:25small.
01:05:26Your father used to
01:05:27have a war horse
01:05:27named Ghost, and he
01:05:29promised that once
01:05:29you're tall enough,
01:05:30he'd teach you to
01:05:31ride a big horse
01:05:32himself.
01:05:32I am tall enough
01:05:33already.
01:05:34Where did daddy go?
01:05:35Why isn't he back
01:05:36yet?
01:05:38He said he went to
01:05:39get you the best
01:05:39present ever.
01:05:41Look, isn't that
01:05:41him?
01:05:45Bella, your very own
01:05:46saddle is here.
01:05:47Do you want to try
01:05:47it out?
01:05:50Daddy, I want to
01:05:51ride the big horse.
01:05:59Hold on tight,
01:06:00little one.
01:06:06This is the best
01:06:07place in all of
01:06:08England.
01:06:10You used to say the
01:06:11hillside was the best.
01:06:13Wherever you and Bella
01:06:14are, that's the best
01:06:16place.
01:06:17you hate.
01:06:17You've heard all the
01:06:17for me is help out
01:06:18run into or worry about
01:06:18not home. How
