00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:08 My father taught me that angels and demons walk among us,
00:13 clothed in human flesh.
00:15 The trick is to tell which is which.
00:22 Your uncle is hardly a fit person
00:24 to have charge of a young girl.
00:26 He's my nearest relation, sir.
00:28 You've never met him, I think.
00:31 I will not challenge my father's choice of guardian.
00:35 Uncle.
00:36 Dear child, allow me to present your cousin Edward.
00:42 Dear cousin, what good friends we shall be.
00:46 I suggest an alliance, what do you say?
00:51 I perceive already a lasting friendship.
00:55 You are an heiress.
00:57 And ought not to appear like a jack pudding.
00:59 My uncle is an odyssey.
01:06 A mild word for suspected murder.
01:08 My father paid to clean up your mess.
01:13 No, this was his.
01:15 You're a liar.
01:18 You are a price.
01:20 I know.
01:22 Surely you want someone.
01:26 I might just suppose you've formed an attachment for me.
01:28 What could be better than taking your own blood to wed?
01:37 How would you say you've been feeling, Miss Rutherford?
01:41 Tad confined.
01:42 What do you think to accuse me?
01:49 Shall you roll the dice and see?
01:52 Should anything transpire, I really
01:55 don't think your reputation would handle it.
01:58 What is it you want?
02:06 That little heart of yours?
02:09 Do you think it's so little?
02:13 You're mistaken.
