House Of Whipcord | 1974

  • 2 months ago
The plot takes place in an old house, which doubles up as a private institution ran by a senile judge, his unforgiving partner; the female warden of the prison and two equally vile female orderlies. They punish girls for crimes committed that weren't, in their eyes, properly punished by the corrupt British courts.

00:06:16What are they doing?
00:06:18We're about to unveil you, lovey.
00:06:20I think it's in your honour, darling.
00:06:22The action still of the year.
00:06:24Come on, let's see what they've cooked up.
00:06:26Laughter
00:06:28Laughter
00:06:30Laughter
00:06:32Laughter
00:06:34Laughter
00:06:36Laughter
00:06:38Laughter
00:06:40Laughter
00:06:42Laughter
00:06:44Laughter
00:06:46Laughter
00:06:48Laughter
00:06:50Where did you get it?
00:06:52Joe got it from the evening standard press office.
00:06:54Terribly good, I love that expression there.
00:06:56Laughter
00:06:58Look at these tall deers over here.
00:07:00Isn't that you behind the car?
00:07:02Yeah, it's amazing actually, we just finished the session before they arrested us.
00:07:04What happened?
00:07:06Didn't you read about it? It was in all the papers.
00:07:08And not one of them mentioned the product.
00:07:10They're getting smart.
00:07:12Anyway, they fined us.
00:07:14Me and Anne-Marie, ten pounds each.
00:07:16What for?
00:07:18Behaviour likely to cause a breach of the peace.
00:07:20Laughter
00:07:22What a show you wrote.
00:07:24The clients liked the pictures though, Cap, did I tell you?
00:07:26Yeah, Martin, but she was great.
00:07:28She really looked fantastic.
00:07:30Where's she gone?
00:07:32I don't know.
00:07:34Anne-Marie, come here, have a drink.
00:07:36Your flatmate's drinking under the table.
00:07:38Leave her alone, Ted.
00:07:40She's embarrassed.
00:07:42What about? Not this, surely.
00:07:44Well, she's a bit touchy about her parents finding out.
00:07:46And I think we ought to stop teasing her as well.
00:07:48Laughter
00:07:54I don't blame her.
00:07:56I'm sorry.
00:07:58Oh, it's all right.
00:08:00They say I am used.
00:08:02It all seems a bit childish.
00:08:04And rather tasteless.
00:08:06Though I wouldn't say that, Tony, would I?
00:08:08Come here.
00:08:12May I get you a drink?
00:08:14No, thank you. I have enough.
00:08:16Come sit down.
00:08:18Tell me who you are.
00:08:20Laughter
00:08:26Ted?
00:08:28Yeah?
00:08:30Who's that?
00:08:32Who's what, my love?
00:08:34I'm getting a bit bleary-eyed.
00:08:36God knows. Something Joe picked up.
00:08:38What?
00:08:40Apparently, he walked into the office just before it closed
00:08:42and offered our lovely lady some idea for a feature.
00:08:44She took some sort of fancy to him
00:08:46and invited him to stay.
00:08:48Not like her, is it?
00:08:50He must have a fatal charm.
00:08:52Or something.
00:08:54Yes, well, we'd better find you
00:08:56a little friend of your own, my darling.
00:08:58Come and meet some of my eligible
00:09:00fellow slaves, see if we can sober them up.
00:09:02Gentlemen,
00:09:04let me introduce you to the lovely Julia King.
00:09:06It's nice to meet you.
00:09:08There's an article here on twelfth-century ceramics
00:09:10and a poem of Ezra Pound
00:09:12sandwiched between a huge knee-dressing chain
00:09:14and Andy Warhol on the loo.
00:09:16What are you reading?
00:09:18Escort. Ted thrust it into my hot little hands
00:09:20when I left the party last night.
00:09:22Said I ought to gin up on modern men's taste.
00:09:24I don't think they knew about the men's taste.
00:09:26That was very good.
00:09:28That was very good.
00:09:30Then one day, Madame asked me
00:09:32to come down and show a model to a client.
00:09:34Once I asked many girls I'd gone on.
00:09:36I think I look nice in the dress
00:09:38and Madame let me model a little.
00:09:40Then I go to Burma for a few months
00:09:42and I meet Julia
00:09:44who said I should go to work for a boss
00:09:46who is an agent in London.
00:09:48So I go to London where I do much
00:09:50photographic work
00:09:52and that is my life.
00:09:54Why are you so nervous?
00:09:56Nervous? I?
00:09:58What do you mean?
00:10:00Something in your voice, your eyes.
00:10:02I think you're afraid of me.
00:10:04Oh, but no.
00:10:06I'm a little excited.
00:10:08That is all.
00:10:10Why should I be afraid?
00:10:12Why not?
00:10:14You're out alone with a man you don't know
00:10:16and we all fear the unknown.
00:10:18It's a natural.
00:10:20But I do know you
00:10:22and I like you.
00:10:24Why, even at the party
00:10:26you were the only one who really understands.
00:10:28This is true, Mark.
00:10:30Let me show you something.
00:10:32Come on.
00:10:34A little experiment, something to prove what I say.
00:10:36You'll find it interesting.
00:10:38All you have to do is close your eyes.
00:10:40Oh.
00:10:42But you must promise to keep them closed all the time.
00:10:44All right?
00:10:46Okay.
00:10:48Are they closed?
00:10:50Yeah.
00:10:52Now I want you to imagine something.
00:10:54Can you remember the way the table is laid out?
00:10:56Do you remember the knives
00:10:58at the side of the plates?
00:11:00The steak knives.
00:11:02The ones with the serrated edges.
00:11:04Do you know serrated?
00:11:08It doesn't raise the sharp little notches
00:11:10on each blade.
00:11:12What sharpness?
00:11:14They go through steak just like
00:11:16that.
00:11:18Now I'm
00:11:20picking one up
00:11:22and I'm looking
00:11:24at it.
00:11:26I don't even touch it with my finger
00:11:28because the slightest
00:11:30pressure would make
00:11:32a cut.
00:11:36Now I'm going to bring the knife
00:11:38closer to you.
00:11:42I'm reaching out across the table
00:11:44and I'm holding
00:11:46the knife very close
00:11:48to your face.
00:11:50The blade
00:11:52has the finest,
00:11:54thinnest cutting
00:11:56edge imaginable.
00:11:58It's almost touching your face.
00:12:00If you were to move your face
00:12:02just one eighth of an inch,
00:12:04it would slice through
00:12:06your cheek just like
00:12:08that.
00:12:12Only an ice cube.
00:12:14But I felt...
00:12:16What?
00:12:18The blood.
00:12:19You thought I would cut your face.
00:12:21But anybody
00:12:23would want...
00:12:25I'm sorry.
00:12:27I shouldn't have done it.
00:12:29It was only a joke.
00:12:33Will you forgive me?
00:12:35I was so frightened.
00:12:37It was only a joke.
00:12:39Where did these go?
00:12:41In that drawer there.
00:12:44Look, so there's bloody saucepans.
00:12:46Yeah, let's leave it.
00:12:47Certainly not.
00:12:48Oh, come on, let's leave it.
00:12:49Why?
00:12:50Because I want to...
00:12:52Take it back to my wife.
00:12:54Oh, that was nasty.
00:12:56I didn't mean it. I'm sorry.
00:12:57Look, let's get on with it
00:12:58before Froggy gets home.
00:12:59She won't be back yet.
00:13:00She's got a great big yearning
00:13:01for that writer.
00:13:02Who's he?
00:13:03Oh, some dishy, dark-eyed number
00:13:04she met at the escort party.
00:13:06Hey, what's this?
00:13:07What's what?
00:13:08It's a fuse.
00:13:10Tony.
00:13:11Don't ask me to fix it.
00:13:12I'm useless with my hands.
00:13:13Oh, you're kidding.
00:13:18You'll have to pay for that.
00:13:19But not for this.
00:13:32Thank you.
00:13:34What for?
00:13:35What the cares saw that in you?
00:13:36Both.
00:13:37Everything.
00:13:38It has been so wonderful.
00:13:41I've enjoyed it so much.
00:13:44Look, an unusual ring.
00:13:46Let me see.
00:13:47What does it say?
00:13:48M-E-D.
00:13:50Marquis de Sade.
00:13:53Marquis de Sade.
00:13:56What's the matter?
00:13:58Oh, it just sounds
00:13:59a little like something else.
00:14:01Marquis de Sade.
00:14:03The Marquis de Sade.
00:14:04You know.
00:14:06No.
00:14:07Who is he?
00:14:09Nobody.
00:14:10You coming in?
00:14:12Won't we disturb your flatmate?
00:14:14No.
00:14:16She has her room and I have mine.
00:14:19No, not tonight.
00:14:21I must do some writing.
00:14:23Won't I see you again?
00:14:27This weekend, if you're free.
00:14:29Oh, yes, please.
00:14:32I'd like to take you to visit my parents.
00:14:34I would love to meet my mother.
00:14:36Oh, Marquis.
00:14:38You are so funny.
00:14:39You're so old-fashioned.
00:14:41I thought you didn't like me.
00:14:43I'm sorry.
00:14:44No.
00:14:45It is nice.
00:14:48I would like to meet your mother,
00:14:49but perhaps she wouldn't like me.
00:14:53You're French.
00:14:55She likes the French?
00:14:57Then we shall be very happy.
00:14:59We could write down on Friday.
00:15:01It is a long way, no?
00:15:03Quite.
00:15:05It's a date, then.
00:15:07Yes.
00:15:08It's a date.
00:15:09Marquis de Sartre.
00:15:16Hello.
00:15:17Where are you off to?
00:15:18Oh, Julia.
00:15:19The photographer.
00:15:20He made me work an extra hour and I'm late.
00:15:23Oh, he's here.
00:15:24And I'm not reading.
00:15:25Who's here?
00:15:26Where are you going?
00:15:27I told you.
00:15:28I'm going away for the weekend.
00:15:29Oh, yes.
00:15:30To meet somebody's mum.
00:15:31Was that the weaving writer,
00:15:33the cab-mail model,
00:15:34or the phony producer?
00:15:35Yes.
00:15:36Well, that answers my question.
00:15:38Did you get her the present?
00:15:39No, I didn't have time,
00:15:40but we will stop to buy something on the way.
00:15:42Goodbye, Julia.
00:15:43I must hurry.
00:15:44Goodbye.
00:15:45Have a nice time.
00:15:54Oh, this is so beautiful.
00:15:57Is it a long way to your mother's?
00:15:59Mark?
00:16:03Where does she live?
00:16:05I don't know.
00:16:22Mark.
00:16:23Drive a little more slowly, please.
00:16:26I'm...
00:16:27I'm...
00:16:28Yes?
00:16:29I'm a little frightened.
00:16:38Mark.
00:16:39We will stop to get the present, won't we?
00:16:41You haven't forgotten?
00:16:43That's still a long way to go.
00:16:47But I want to buy your mother something nice.
00:16:57Mark.
00:16:58Have I upset you in some way?
00:17:01Please tell me.
00:17:06Where are we, Mark?
00:17:09Why did you do that?
00:17:11It is dangerous, no?
00:17:13You what?
00:17:14Go to sleep now.
00:17:16Stop asking questions.
00:17:47Oh, yeah.
00:17:48Mark.
00:17:49Is this your house?
00:17:50It looks so big.
00:17:52Oh, yeah.
00:17:58Mark.
00:18:02Is this your house?
00:18:20Wait here.
00:18:45Wait here.
00:19:13Wait here.
00:19:29You're late.

00:20:24Monsieur Desar?
00:20:33I've gone to...
00:20:34You're French.
00:20:35Yes.
00:20:36In there.
00:20:37May I have my guest?
00:20:38Take off your clothes and leave them on the table.
00:20:39All of them.
00:20:40And your shoes.

00:20:59I...
00:21:00I...
00:21:01I...
00:21:02I...
00:21:03I...
00:21:04I...
00:21:05I...
00:21:06I...
00:21:07I...
00:21:08I...
00:21:09I...
00:21:10I...
00:21:11I...
00:21:12Is there something amacie cable you're hearing?
00:21:25What?
00:21:26Dear, dear.
00:21:27It seems to be, doesn't it?
00:21:30You were both deaf and insolent.
00:21:31Who are you? What is this place? Where is M. Desar?
00:21:34There are two rules very easily learnt on entering this institution.
00:21:38Institution?
00:21:39Shut up!
00:21:40One is that instructions are given to be obeyed.
00:21:42The other is that each officer is addressed as madam.
00:21:45I... I should not be here.
00:21:47I should not be here... what?
00:21:50I don't understand. I don't understand.
00:21:52You are not in this room to understand.
00:21:54You are in this room to be bathed and checked for vermin before putting on your uniform.
00:21:58Now get your coat.
00:22:00Now get your clothes off.
00:22:01I will not. This is not where I should be.
00:22:04I will go to find M. Desar. He is here.
00:22:10Now then.
00:22:11No!
00:22:12Now then, we will continue the customary reception routine.
00:22:17Since you are not willing to undress yourself, you will have to be stripped.
00:22:21Bates.
00:22:22No, please. Let me go. I will do it. Please, tell me...
00:22:25Silence!
00:22:27Now undress behind the screen.
00:22:30Silence!
00:23:01Hurry up. We haven't got all night.
00:23:11When you are finished, report here.
00:23:31Put your clothes on the table.
00:23:50Your name is Anne-Marie Duvernay.
00:23:52Age 19. Born in Avignon, France.
00:23:56Your name is Anne-Marie Duvernay.
00:23:58Age 19. Born in Avignon, France, but resident in London.
00:24:02Your occupation is modelling.
00:24:05Yes, but I...
00:24:07You are here to serve sentence, according to the proper moral and disciplinary standards,
00:24:13for conviction of a serious charge for exposing yourself unclothed,
00:24:18without shame, for monetary gain to a photographer in a public place,
00:24:22on the 11th day of April last.
00:24:25For which outrage against public decency,
00:24:28a corrupt and permissive London court fined you 10 pounds and discharged you.
00:24:33Then I am free. Why, my heir?
00:24:36Where is ma? Please, I want to see him.
00:24:40Who are you?
00:24:41Speak when you are spoken to.
00:24:53Who is this?
00:24:54Anne-Marie Duvernay.
00:24:57Anne-Marie...
00:24:59Duvernay.
00:25:01Duvernay.
00:25:03When I came into court, you were asking, if I am not mistaken,
00:25:08why I was not allowed to speak.
00:25:11I was not allowed to speak.
00:25:13I was not allowed to speak.
00:25:15I was not allowed to speak.
00:25:17When I came into court, you were asking, if I am not mistaken,
00:25:22why you were in the dock.
00:25:24I propose to enlighten you.
00:25:27This court, my dear young lady, exists outside the statutory laws of this land.
00:25:34It is a private court.
00:25:36We are constituted here by private charter,
00:25:40within the walls of this fine, historic building that was once a county jail,
00:25:46to pass what we regard as proper sentence on depraved females of every category,
00:25:53with whom the effete and misguided courts of Great Britain today have been too lenient.
00:26:00The immorality and filth of life in this land today must not be tolerated.
00:26:08We do not countenance here reformers, prison welfare visitors, or chaplains.
00:26:16We do not provide comfortable rooms with chinst curtains, televisions.
00:26:22This, young woman, is a real prison.
00:26:26A proper...
00:26:30proper...
00:26:31House of correction.
00:26:32A proper house of correction.
00:26:36During your stay.
00:26:38During your stay here, the length of which will be determined by your conduct,
00:26:45any attempt to escape, any disturbance you may create,
00:26:50any refusal to obey the orders of Mrs. Wakehurst,
00:26:56the governess who sits here with me, nor the members of the staff,
00:27:00will meet with prompt, persuasive, and painful punishment.
00:27:05We trust that when the time comes for you to leave,
00:27:09you will be a more fit person to take your place in society.
00:27:17And may God bless you.
00:27:20No.
00:27:21No.
00:27:28Move, prison walker.
00:27:29No.
00:27:30Bates, remain here with me.
00:27:33No.
00:27:39Enjoy displaying your naked body in public, you will be?
00:27:42You get a thrill out of it?
00:27:45I think you pretend to be terribly flashy about it.
00:27:48Would you take any opportunity of having a man leer at you, wouldn't you?
00:27:52Well, I'm right, aren't I?
00:27:53You think I wouldn't guess that.
00:27:55I can read you like a book.
00:28:06That's your bunk.
00:28:07Get out.
00:28:10You will lie on it until otherwise directed.
00:28:14We're the only people who can help you, Daverne.
00:28:17There's nobody to flaunt yourself at here.
00:28:21Nobody to tease.
00:28:23I'm going to make you ashamed of your body, Daverne.
00:28:28I'm going to see to that personally.
00:28:37Talking is at all times strictly forbidden.
00:28:40Except when answering a prison officer.
00:28:53I'm nearly there.
00:28:58She has come.
00:29:00Maggie.
00:29:07Please, tell me why.
00:29:30Yes, that's all right, Bates.
00:29:32There are too many vague suspicions creeping into your reports.
00:29:35There's no smoke without fire.
00:29:37It's quite probable that the Bourne girl is smuggling food into her cell.
00:29:41Bring me evidence tomorrow.
00:29:43Yes, ma'am.
00:29:44I'm going to see to that personally.
00:29:46Except when answering a prison officer.
00:29:48Tell me why.
00:29:49I'm nearly there.
00:29:50She has come.
00:29:51She has come.
00:29:52I'm going to see to that personally.
00:29:54Yes, ma'am.
00:29:55I'm going to see to that personally.
00:29:57Bring me evidence tomorrow.
00:29:58Yes, ma'am.
00:29:59Ah, Walker.
00:30:01Next week I intend to relieve Justice Bailey of some of his responsibilities.
00:30:06There seems little point in going on and reporting the arrival of new prisoners to him.
00:30:10He remembers nothing.
00:30:11The whole procedure is a waste of time.
00:30:14In future you will bring the details to me alone.
00:30:16Is that clear?
00:30:17Yes, ma'am.
00:30:18Good.
00:30:19Is everything under control?
00:30:21Yes, ma'am.
00:30:22I think so.
00:30:23Think so?
00:30:24Daverne could be a problem, ma'am.
00:30:26She will not be a problem, Walker.
00:30:28She will not.
00:30:31I do not want a repetition of what happened before.
00:30:34If there are problems, Walker and you, Bates, I shall want to know the reason why.
00:30:39Yes, ma'am.
00:30:41Good.
00:30:44Oh, Walker.
00:30:46I want Bates here with me tomorrow afternoon.
00:30:48We haven't finished the early inventory.
00:30:50You go into town and get the provisions and take on her other duties.
00:30:53Yes, ma'am.
00:30:54Yes, ma'am.
00:30:55Good night.
00:30:56Good night, ma'am.
00:31:05Margaret?
00:31:07Yes?
00:31:08Would you like a drink, my dear?
00:31:10I'll do it.
00:31:19I've told Walker and Bates that I shall be handling the new admissions in future.
00:31:23Make things easier for you.
00:31:29I find it very difficult to tell the king from the queen.
00:31:32They feel exactly alike.
00:31:34I dare say one is taller than the other.
00:31:42Do you hear me, Desmond?
00:31:44Yes, my dear.
00:31:46What was the name of the girl I sentenced today?
00:31:50Oh, you've been told three times already.
00:31:53She reminded me of the Hanson girl.
00:31:56Claudine Hanson.
00:31:58She was French, too.
00:32:00That was a long time ago.
00:32:02A long time?
00:32:03Oh, no.
00:32:04Five years?
00:32:05It was nearly 30, Desmond.
00:32:0630 years?
00:32:07It couldn't have been.
00:32:08I can remember it distinctly.
00:32:10It was 1946.
00:32:11You were a high court judge and I was in charge of Coswell Grange, wasn't I?
00:32:15Oh, yes, yes, of course.
00:32:18Oh, dear.
00:32:19It wasn't that long ago.
00:32:20It seems so clear.
00:32:22I can remember your very words on the telephone.
00:32:26Desmond, you've got to help me.
00:32:28It's all gone wrong.
00:32:30They're blaming me for the girl's suicide.
00:32:33That's what you said.
00:32:36Yes, you can remember that, can't you?
00:32:38You can remember things that happened 30 years ago.
00:32:40But you can't remember the things that matter.
00:32:42You can't remember that you failed to get me reinstated.
00:32:46I was doing my duty.
00:32:47The stupid French girl was unstable.
00:32:49You can't remember that.
00:32:51Or the days of the week,
00:32:52or the names of prisoners you met five minutes ago.
00:32:57What did you do that for, Margaret?
00:33:00I'll never remember where they were,
00:33:02whether they were pieces or on the floor.
00:33:06Desmond, I'm convinced that no useful purpose is being served
00:33:10by your remaining in office at this prison.
00:33:13Don't speak to me like that, Margaret.
00:33:16While you remain here, so will I.
00:33:18It is no more your prison than it is mine.
00:33:21We started it together because we believed in the same things,
00:33:25and we still do.
00:33:27Justice for those on whom justice has not been served.
00:33:31But justice must be seen to be done, Desmond.
00:33:34You pitiless woman!
00:33:36Do you think I'm blind from choice?
00:33:38Do you think that for one minute in 25 years
00:33:41I've become reconciled to this miserable darkness?
00:33:44You have no feelings, no idea of how I suffer.
00:33:48Oh, no more than I do, I'm sure.
00:33:50At least I've spared the anguish of gazing at your poor, tormented face.
00:33:58My lies offend thee. Pluck them out, Desmond.
00:34:01Margaret!
00:34:02Pluck them out, I say!
00:34:03I'm sorry.
00:34:04Madam, I thought you were about to fall.
00:34:07I thought I'd steady you.
00:34:09I'm sorry.
00:34:11It's all right, Walker.
00:34:12It's all right, Walker.
00:34:14It's quite an order.
00:34:18Well, don't stand there, woman.
00:34:20You may retire if you wish.
00:34:24Leave the knife, will you?
00:34:30Come on.
00:34:42Come on.
00:35:12Come on.
00:35:42Come on.
00:36:13My God, it's like a prison at home.
00:36:18I must go. I'm expected.
00:36:20I don't want to sound corny, Tony, but you can't go on like this.
00:36:23I know. I know it only too well.
00:36:25Well, don't look at me for advice.
00:36:27You're a very good advisor.
00:36:28That's what Anne-Marie always says.
00:36:30Yeah, well, great minds.
00:36:34Would I be right in saying that you fancy her the merest, tiniest, littlest bit?
00:36:38Come off it. I've only bumped into her two or three times.
00:36:40Times enough.
00:36:41Well, while we're talking about it,
00:36:42what about you and that juggler that picked her up at that party on Tuesday?
00:36:46Oh, no, you must be joking.
00:36:48I only saw him once.
00:36:50Across a crowded room.
00:36:51That's right. I don't even know his name.
00:36:53Well, he kept on talking about him.
00:36:54Well, he was attractive.
00:36:55I mean, really.
00:36:57But I don't know.
00:36:58I find myself worrying about everyone she goes out with.
00:37:01Why?
00:37:02Well, she's young.
00:37:03She's, what, 19?
00:37:05And it was me that got the agency to bring her over here in the first place.
00:37:08I feel responsible for her.
00:37:09Well, don't.
00:37:11I'm sure she can look after herself.
00:37:19This is the girl, madame.
00:37:21She steals food from the tables and takes it to her cell.
00:37:24Does she now?
00:37:25Why should she do a silly thing like that, an intelligent girl like Vaughan?
00:37:29Why did you do it, Vaughan?
00:37:32Hmm?
00:37:33Don't we feed you well enough?
00:37:35Well, come on, tell me.
00:37:37Don't we feed you?
00:37:39Don't we feed you well enough?
00:37:40Yes, madame.
00:37:41Then why do you steal?
00:37:43I can't help it.
00:37:45So, we don't feed you well enough, then.
00:37:47You don't know what you're talking about, do you, girl?
00:37:50Third time, isn't it?
00:37:51Yes, madame.
00:37:55What is this noise?
00:37:56A fine way to start the day.
00:37:58I caught the Vaughan girl, madame, stealing.
00:38:01Selfish and despicable.
00:38:03By taking this bread from the communal plate to satisfy your own gluttony, you deprive others.
00:38:07I will not tolerate stealing.
00:38:09Third time offender, madame.
00:38:11Really?
00:38:13You know what this means.
00:38:16Take her away.
00:38:17Take her away.
00:38:18No!
00:38:19No!
00:38:20No!
00:38:21No!
00:38:22No!
00:38:23No!
00:38:24No!
00:38:25No!
00:38:26No!
00:38:27No!
00:38:36This is the only way we can talk.
00:38:38We've only got a moment.
00:38:40Look down towards that end of the corridor and I'll check this end.
00:38:43And if you see or hear anyone coming, anyone at all,
00:38:47get over to the Bible shop, okay?
00:38:49Yes.
00:38:51I meant the shoplifting so-called.
00:38:53You.
00:38:54Well, I am a model.
00:38:56I do some nude work in Kensington Gardens.
00:39:00And they find me.
00:39:02Pretty typical.
00:39:04But how did they bring you here?
00:39:06Same way as you do.
00:39:08He's their son, I think.
00:39:10Way cursed in the churches.
00:39:12Oh, shut up, shut up, you silly girl.
00:39:14Look down the corridor.
00:39:15I don't believe this is happening.
00:39:18Take it from me.
00:39:20They're all mad.
00:39:22Every one of them.
00:39:24We just have to go on playing their game of prisoners and warders.
00:39:27The risk just isn't worth it.
00:39:29But when the people leave here, surely they must go to the police?
00:39:34You don't get it, do you?
00:39:37Nobody leaves here.
00:39:39Nobody.
00:39:41You just try and do as you're told for as long as you can.
00:39:44They give you three chances, you see.
00:39:47The first time you step out of line, they put you in solitary for two weeks.
00:39:51The second time, they flog you.
00:39:54And the third time, you're finished.
00:39:57They hang you.
00:39:59Oh, Karen, no!
00:40:01Yes, Karen, this morning.
00:40:03It was her last chance.
00:40:05You mean, you mean they will hang her?
00:40:08Tomorrow, most likely.
00:40:10No, this cannot be.
00:40:11It will be.
00:40:13No!
00:40:15But what can we do, love?
00:40:18We must say that.
00:40:21Come in.
00:40:28Born's death warrant, madam.
00:40:32Yes.
00:40:34Yes, that's all in order.
00:40:41I'll see that it's passed on to Justice Bailey, as usual.
00:40:45Execution is set for dawn tomorrow.
00:40:48See that the scaffold is prepared.
00:40:50And I'll inspect it with Walker after lunch.
00:40:52Miss Walker is on rations duty this afternoon, madam.
00:40:55Yes, of course.
00:40:57And it'll have to be you.
00:40:59Oh, thank you.
00:41:01I won't do it again.
00:41:03I promise I'll never do it again.
00:41:09I'll eat one meal a day.
00:41:11Bread and water.
00:41:14I'll be wet.
00:41:16Miss Tiller, I'll be wet.
00:41:18I'll do anything.
00:41:20Please, I'll do anything.
00:41:22Sit down!
00:41:36I don't know.
00:41:38I don't know, Anne-Marie.
00:41:39It would be my second time.
00:41:42If we fail, you will be whipped, yes.
00:41:45And I will be put in solitary confinement.
00:41:47This I know.
00:41:49But we will not fail.
00:41:51We will save Karen.
00:41:53We must save Karen.
00:41:55Then she will save us all.
00:41:57Walker does the flogging, you know.
00:41:59And I don't think I could take it.
00:42:01We must look for the first possible chance.
00:42:10It could be sooner than we think.
00:42:13It's Walker going into town
00:42:15to buy stuff for the week.
00:42:17That's lucky.
00:42:19Usually Bates goes.
00:42:21Look, she's handing over the keys.
00:42:23Should we go on about an hour?
00:42:25Oh, but what are we even talking about it for?
00:42:27It's hopeless.
00:42:29But we try.
00:42:31Yes?
00:42:33Oh, if anything goes wrong.
00:42:35Please, Claire.
00:42:37All right, we'll do it.
00:42:39All right.
00:43:09Standing about, are you?
00:43:11Taking it easy?
00:43:13You'll be in trouble if them Bible passages
00:43:15aren't learned by tonight.
00:43:17First offender, aren't you?
00:43:19Well, by tonight, you'll be...
00:43:21Miss Walker!
00:43:23It's no good.
00:43:25They think he's mad for what he's done.
00:43:27Oh, Lord, our God,
00:43:29we thank thee for this mercy
00:43:31that having graced our souls with thy food,
00:43:33we may make it our meat and drink
00:43:35to do thy gracious will.
00:43:37Through Jesus...
00:43:39Mr. Turner, before I'm back, tell her I'm with Bates.
00:43:41Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.
00:44:01Now we must find the death cell.
00:44:03We must be quick, we must be quick.
00:44:10Bates.
00:44:19Bates!
00:44:29Bates!
00:44:40Bates!
00:44:44Bates!
00:44:57Oh, I think we must be in the wrong part of the building.
00:45:00Come on, we must be quick.
00:45:10Here, here.
00:45:28Come on, come on, quick.
00:45:30No, we can't, please leave me.
00:45:34There's the key.
00:45:36No!
00:45:37There's the key.
00:45:39No, I'll never get away from here.
00:46:00You're not going to disrupt my prison, do you hear me?
00:46:03Not again, Hamilton.
00:46:05I'm not going to let you disrupt this prison.
00:46:07Ask me again and I'll finish you.
00:46:18All right, Walker?
00:46:20Everything's ready, madam.
00:46:26You're going to cop it this time, Manning, you see.
00:46:29You're going to be sorry for what you've done to me.
00:46:37You're going to be sorry.
00:47:08Sign this, will you?
00:47:10What is it?
00:47:12Colin Vaughan's release.
00:47:14Oh, good, good.
00:47:17Where do I...
00:47:19There.
00:47:24Where is he living?
00:47:26Now.
00:47:28Oh, that's most interesting.
00:47:30Where is he living?
00:47:32Now.
00:47:34Where is he living?
00:47:35Now.
00:47:37Oh, that's most encouraging news.
00:47:39She's learnt her lesson, I'm sure.
00:47:41May I see her before she goes?
00:47:43No, she's just on her way out.
00:47:54Bring in the prisoner.
00:48:05Bring in the prisoner.
00:48:36You're a sadist.
00:48:38I know, I know.
00:48:40I'll tell her tonight.
00:48:42What do you think she must feel like?
00:48:44Look, if you want me to tell her tonight, I'll tell her tonight.
00:48:47Not a case of what I want, Tony.
00:48:49You've got to make the decision.
00:48:51I made the decision.
00:48:53All I've got to do now is to carry it out.
00:48:55Right.
00:48:57What are you doing?
00:48:59Oh, sorry, I was just checking something.
00:49:01I was right.
00:49:03Anne Marie went away on the 27th.
00:49:05Strange, don't you think?
00:49:07She hasn't phoned, she hasn't written.
00:49:09I think it's funny.
00:49:11She's probably in the middle of a passionate affair.
00:49:13I mean, would you have phoned her if you'd been away with me?
00:49:15Of course I would.
00:49:17Thank you.
00:49:19Come on, don't worry about it.
00:49:21I think I ought to tell the police.
00:49:23Julia, you're behaving like a Jewish mother.
00:49:25Well, it can't do any harm, can it?
00:49:27We can call in on the way back to the office.
00:49:29Oh, please, Tony, just for me.
00:49:31Well, you can do it, I'm not.
00:49:33Come on.
00:49:36Please.
00:49:48Well?
00:49:50Well, we're to our best, madam.
00:49:52Oh, she wasn't found horribly mutilated in a pond, then?
00:49:54No, dear, if you want to know, I felt a bit of an idiot.
00:49:56What?
00:49:58Well, what could I tell them?
00:50:00Her name's Anne Marie Duvernay and she's somewhere in England.
00:50:02What can we do?
00:50:06Mark!
00:50:08Mark!
00:50:10What is it?
00:50:12Mark, Mark Dessart.
00:50:14That's the one from the party, you know.
00:50:16How could I forget?
00:50:18Julia!
00:50:20That's who she's gone away with.
00:50:22I can ring up the agency and get his address.
00:50:24Simple as that.
00:50:26Well, I hope he doesn't find out.
00:50:28It sounds suspiciously like spying to me.
00:50:30OK, Ted, thanks a lot.
00:50:32That's all right, bye.
00:50:33Well, I didn't imagine it.
00:50:35What?
00:50:37You wouldn't believe this, but nobody at that party,
00:50:39not one of those people knows anything about Mark Dessart.
00:50:41Not even Ted.
00:50:43He was pissed.
00:50:45I don't like it, Tony, I really don't.
00:50:47Yeah, well, I mean, I've got my own problems to sort out tonight,
00:50:49do you remember?
00:50:51Wish me luck, then.
00:50:53Good luck.
00:50:58And David executed judgment and justice
00:51:01onto all his people.
00:51:04You've got until six o'clock tonight to learn it properly.
00:51:07You too, Jennings.
00:51:09You will be asked questions.
00:51:19Take them to their cells.
00:51:21Get along.
00:51:23You OK?
00:51:25I think so.
00:51:27How's Anne-Marie?
00:51:29Don't know.
00:51:31Did I hear talking?
00:52:01I don't know.
00:52:31I don't know.
00:53:02Damn.
00:53:04That girl's intimidating me.
00:53:08Which girl?
00:53:10Which what, why, whom? Hanson.
00:53:12Hanson?
00:53:14Oh, Delaney.
00:53:16Well, I fail to see how, my dear,
00:53:18she's undergoing solitary confinement.
00:53:21Because she's French, that's how,
00:53:23and she's a troublemaker.
00:53:25If it hadn't been for her, I'd still be at Coswell Grange
00:53:27and so would Walker and Bates.
00:53:28Anne-Marie thinks the lady does protest too much.
00:53:31I see only facts.
00:53:33You and me and this prison,
00:53:36and the danger it's in.
00:53:39De Ferne will destroy us, Desmond.
00:53:42I know it.
00:53:45We must get rid of her as soon as possible.
00:53:48Get rid of her?
00:53:50Get rid of her.
00:53:52But she has committed only one offense, we know.
00:53:55But she has committed only one offense,
00:53:58we may yet be able to save her.
00:54:26Anne-Marie?
00:54:28Oh, don't touch me.
00:54:30What have they done to you?
00:54:35I must get you away from here.
00:54:38Why, you brought me here,
00:54:40it was your mother and father to beat and torture me.
00:54:43No, that's not true, I brought you here, yes,
00:54:45but I didn't know.
00:54:48Oh, Anne-Marie,
00:54:50I don't know where to start.
00:54:52I don't know where to start.
00:55:00Let me try to explain, please.
00:55:11A long time ago,
00:55:13my mother was a prison governess,
00:55:15one of the youngest in the country.
00:55:18There was some trouble,
00:55:19reports of brutal treatment or something,
00:55:21and a girl died.
00:55:23Anyway, there was an inquiry.
00:55:25I don't know much about it, but somehow my father,
00:55:27he was head of the prison commission,
00:55:29he got her exonerated,
00:55:32but she was dismissed from the prison service.
00:55:35My father left his wife
00:55:37and bought this place for my mother,
00:55:39just like people buy old railway stations
00:55:41or windmills to live in.
00:55:43They set up home together,
00:55:45and I was born a year later, 1947.
00:55:49I think I was a bit of an embarrassment to them
00:55:51being illegitimate and everything,
00:55:53and I was sent to boarding school
00:55:55and then university.
00:55:57I'd come to visit them every six months.
00:56:00Then I found they'd started getting these crazy ideas
00:56:03about the courts being ineffective
00:56:05and the country going to rack and ruin.
00:56:07They said they could do something about it
00:56:09by lecturing young offenders
00:56:11on the principles of right and wrong.
00:56:13They'd give me names, they'd read in the newspapers,
00:56:15and ask me to find them and bring them down.
00:56:17I thought it would all be a bit of a joke
00:56:19with my father sitting up all night
00:56:21quoting the Bible at them or something.
00:56:23I warned them they'd get into trouble sooner or later,
00:56:26but it seemed to make them happy,
00:56:28and the months went by and nobody complained.
00:56:31So I went on doing it.
00:56:33I thought they must actually be doing some good.
00:56:37I never knew.
00:56:40Until today.
00:56:42This part of the building
00:56:44has always been locked, deserted.
00:56:45I thought...
00:56:48I found out everything.
00:56:58I can never forgive myself.
00:57:00Never.
00:57:02For what I've done to you.
00:57:04For what I've done to all of them.
00:57:08All of them.
00:57:11I...
00:57:13I can never forgive myself.
00:57:15I can never forgive you, Matt.
00:57:17But you must go to the police now.
00:57:20But they're insane.
00:57:22Don't you see that?
00:57:24They're not really criminals.
00:57:26They need treatment.
00:57:28They should be locked away where they can do no further harm.
00:57:32But I must get you away from here as soon as possible.
00:57:36What about the other girls?
00:57:38They as well.
00:57:40One at a time.
00:57:42This evening,
00:57:43I will unlock your door.
00:57:45I'll have some transport waiting for you outside.
00:57:47Then after you're all gone, I'll...
00:57:51I'm sorry, Ann Marie.
00:57:54Perhaps one day you'll...
00:57:57No, I was going to say,
00:57:59perhaps one day you'll understand.
00:58:01But that's stupid.
00:58:06May I kiss you?
00:58:13Yes.
00:58:20Thank you.
00:58:23What about the kiss?
00:58:27Everything.
00:58:43I love you.
00:59:13I love you.
00:59:43I love you.
01:00:13How fortunate I was passing.
01:00:43I love you.
01:01:13I love you.
01:01:44Ah!
01:01:46Ah!
01:01:48Ah!
01:01:50Ah!
01:01:52Ah!
01:01:54Ah!
01:02:13Ah!
01:02:25You thought I overdid it, didn't you, Bates?
01:02:27No, madam.
01:02:29I had my instructions. I was told to make her remember it.
01:02:31I've seen that look in Mrs. Waker's eyes before.
01:02:33I don't think the girl will last the week.
01:02:35She may not.
01:02:37Look, love, it's getting very late.
01:02:39I don't think there's anything else we can do, quite honestly.
01:02:41Well, I'm not giving up.
01:02:43Julia, what else is there?
01:02:45Mark Desartes doesn't exist.
01:02:47There's nobody else to phone.
01:02:49The N.U.J. have never heard of him.
01:02:51And he gave Joe a load of phony references.
01:02:53And an unobtainable phone number.
01:02:55That's right.
01:02:57He doesn't want you to find him, and you're not going to.
01:02:59But why go to all that trouble?
01:03:01Why pretend he was a rioter?
01:03:03I don't know.
01:03:04Why go to all that trouble?
01:03:06Why pretend he was a rioter?
01:03:08He was a gatecrasher with a phony name.
01:03:10Mark Desartes.
01:03:12No, it's more than that.
01:03:14First of all, he makes sure that no one can trace him.
01:03:16And then he disappears with Anne-Marie.
01:03:18Julia, you don't know that he was the one she went away with, do you?
01:03:21No, I don't know.
01:03:23Am I being silly?
01:03:25No, just being you.
01:03:34I don't know.
01:04:05Look.
01:04:13Where is your uniform, DiVerny?
01:04:24Uniforms must be worn at all times.
01:04:30What is clear, madame?
01:04:31Bernie?
01:04:33She was a bad influence on you, DiVerny.
01:04:35We had to move her.
01:04:38I was so afraid.
01:04:41I thought I was going to die.
01:04:44I think you are dying, DiVerny.
01:04:47Little by little.
01:04:51First, we will kill your vanity.
01:04:54Then the rest follows of its own accord.
01:04:58But not before we kill you.
01:05:01Not yet.
01:05:03Not tonight.
01:05:26DiVerny?
01:05:31DiVerny?
01:05:56Anne-Marie!
01:05:58Anne-Marie!
01:05:59Anne-Marie!
01:06:25Where are you going with that?
01:06:27Here is mommy's little teddy, DiVerny.
01:06:30Oh, you're a good boy, aren't you?
01:06:33Please, sister, please. We'll all be loved.
01:06:35Shut up.
01:06:36It's our only chance to get away.
01:06:38Wicker's really gunning for her.
01:06:39She'll be dead within a week.
01:06:46All right, now.
01:06:48Now.
01:06:49No!
01:06:56No!
01:07:26No!
01:07:56She may still be in the building.
01:07:58She's out here somewhere.
01:07:59Madam!
01:08:06It's impossible. She couldn't have done it.
01:08:21Go on, Bates.
01:08:26Go on.
01:08:56Go on.
01:09:12Now.
01:09:16Hang on, now.
01:09:22Okay, I'll get you.
01:09:23Hang on, I'll get you.
01:09:25Go around the other side.
01:09:26You can't stand apart at this height.
01:09:29That's it.
01:09:30She'll have you in the trunk.
01:09:33Hang on.
01:09:34Up.
01:09:37There we are.
01:09:38That's it.
01:09:53There we are.
01:10:05How do you say anything, darling?
01:10:07How do you say anything?
01:10:15How do you say anything, darling?
01:10:17Can't you speak?
01:10:20How are you feeling, eh?
01:10:23Can't you say?
01:10:39I'm taking you to the hospital.
01:10:43Where?
01:10:51Mate!
01:10:52Hey, mate!
01:10:55Do you know of an hospital around here?
01:10:57A hospital?
01:10:58I think I'll pass one back there.
01:11:00Hospital, nursing home, something like that.
01:11:02Anything the matter?
01:11:03Yeah.
01:11:05I've got a girl here, not feeling too good.
01:11:07Where is this place?
01:11:08Yeah, well, keep going a couple of miles.
01:11:10You'll pass it on the left-hand side.
01:11:12Right, cheers.
01:11:13Cheers.
01:11:22There you go.
01:11:52There you go.
01:12:18Hello?
01:12:20Spooky bloody places.
01:12:42I'm sorry to trouble you, lady.
01:12:44Somebody told me this was a hospital.
01:12:46Well, I'm afraid it isn't.
01:12:47Ah, it isn't, eh?
01:12:49Well, I wonder, could I use your telephone?
01:12:51Only, I'll find a girl on the road.
01:12:53She's in a pretty bad way.
01:12:59This is a private clinic, but it looks very serious indeed.
01:13:05I think you'd better bring her inside.
01:13:07Sure.
01:13:08Thanks a lot.
01:13:18Poor child, did she...
01:13:20Did she tell you what had happened to her?
01:13:22No, I couldn't get any sense out of her.
01:13:24I mean, she was babbling, delirious, you know,
01:13:26but she never said a word.
01:13:28That's why I was getting worried.
01:13:30Yes, I'm sure you were.
01:13:31Are you all right?
01:13:33Yes, I'm good.
01:13:34Right, this way.
01:13:48Is this yours?
01:13:50Yeah, careful.
01:13:52Her back's red-raw.
01:14:02Walker?
01:14:04A girl, madam.
01:14:05She was found.
01:14:07Where?
01:14:09About 5 o'clock.
01:14:11Where?
01:14:13I don't know.
01:14:14And where?
01:14:16About 5 or 6 miles down the road.
01:14:19This gentleman found her.
01:14:21He has no idea what could have happened to her.
01:14:24She must be beaten up by some pervert.
01:14:27Good gracious, how lucky you were to find us.
01:14:32Well, you must...
01:14:35We must prepare a bed for her immediately.
01:14:38Yeah.
01:14:40She's not really bad, is she?
01:14:42I think she'll be all right, thanks to you.
01:14:44We'll put her in Ward 3.
01:14:46Will you see to that at once, please?
01:14:50And then we must phone the police.
01:14:52Yes, madam.
01:14:57Well, I expect we've held you up long enough, haven't we?
01:15:01Oh, no, no, no, that's all right with me.
01:15:03I just want to make sure she's okay.
01:15:06She'll be all right, Mr...
01:15:08Kind.
01:15:10Kind.
01:15:11Kind in name and nature.
01:15:12Well, don't worry, Mr. Kind.
01:15:15Just leave your address with one of my nurses.
01:15:18I'm sure the girl will want to contact you when she's better.
01:15:22Please forgive me for not coming to the door.
01:15:25I must go and prepare a bed for her.
01:15:28A good night's sleep will make all the difference.
01:15:32Yeah.
01:15:34Okay, okay.
01:15:36Cheers.
01:15:39Night.
01:15:42Night.
01:15:53I'll, uh, hear from you then.
01:15:56Yes.
01:16:06Funny old places.
01:16:08It's old.
01:16:10Yeah.
01:16:13Cheers, then.
01:16:20Goodbye.
01:16:27You thought you could outwit me, didn't you?
01:16:31I suppose it was Clodine Hanson who taught you to creep up behind people and attack them, was it?
01:16:36When you burned your boats this time, hasn't she, Walker?
01:16:40She's beyond redemption.
01:16:43Quite beyond, quite beyond.
01:16:46Prepare the death cell.
01:16:48She'll be executed tomorrow.
01:17:07Ah, that's how to go, eh?
01:17:10All right, Jack, going north?
01:17:12Yeah.
01:17:13Bacon, two eggs, sausage, chips, large coffee, four lunch.
01:17:19Deliver it to my place later, eh?
01:17:21What you got on?
01:17:22No, I'm picking up.
01:17:24Osgold Rock Spurs, eh?
01:17:27Chewing the first half and another five minutes from time.
01:17:30Go on.
01:17:32That's funny.
01:17:34What's funny?
01:17:35I know that bird.
01:17:37Yeah, that's her face all right, that is.
01:17:39Or is it?
01:17:41No, it can't be, can it?
01:17:42What's the matter with you?
01:17:44I thought I'd recognise the girl in the air, but that's all.
01:17:46What, your missus, is it, making a bit on the side?
01:17:49Jack!
01:17:51Tea, sausage and chips.
01:17:52Right.
01:17:54I think old Jack's fancying a bit of the extra maritals.
01:18:00Come on, you lot, let's have a bit of music.
01:18:03Watch it!
01:18:05That's all right, only a newspaper's gone all over your friend.
01:18:10Give us another look, will you?
01:18:12Yeah, help yourself.
01:18:13Do you really know her?
01:18:15I picked her up, this girl, last night in a pissing rain.
01:18:17Yeah?
01:18:18She'd been beaten up.
01:18:20Now, I drove her to a hospital or clinic, something like that, a couple of miles outside of Pen Lons.
01:18:24I left her there to be taken care of.
01:18:26Yeah, well?
01:18:28Well, unless I've got blind or something in the head or something, this girl in the air is her.
01:18:32Go on.
01:18:33I'm bloody certain of it.
01:18:35Where are you going?
01:18:36I'm going to phone this paper and get the name off them.
01:18:38Why?
01:18:39Well, it stands to reason, doesn't it?
01:18:41I mean, this kid was in a bad way last night.
01:18:43She was babbling, you know, she was only half-conscious.
01:18:45Well, supposing they can't identify her, find out her name, next of kin, that sort of thing.
01:18:50Well, I reckon the paper will know who she is.
01:18:53Get in touch with her people and tell them that she's in dock.
01:18:56It's not your problem, Jack.
01:18:58Oh, no.
01:19:00You just can't leave it, can you?
01:19:06PHONE RINGS
01:19:11Oh, Christ.
01:19:17Hello?
01:19:19The deed is done.
01:19:21So I'm going to need a bed.
01:19:23What do you mean?
01:19:25Oh, Tony, I'm sorry, that's marvellous.
01:19:27Did I get you a pen?
01:19:29No, it's not that.
01:19:31Well, you wouldn't believe this, but Anne-Marie's been found in Pen Lons.
01:19:33She's had some kind of accident, but she's OK.
01:19:35She's gone to a private clinic.
01:19:37How?
01:19:39Well, he saw her picture in the paper, phoned the paper, and the paper phoned mainly at the agency.
01:19:41When?
01:19:43I don't know. I tried to phone, but couldn't find the number.
01:19:45He didn't know the name of the place.
01:19:47I was just on my way to see her. There's a train leaving in about half an hour.
01:19:50I'll be back tonight.
01:19:52Look, come round after work. I'll leave the key under the mat.
01:19:54I'll see you later, Tony, OK? Bye.
01:19:56Bye.
01:20:05Bye.
01:20:36Oh, could you tell which direction the clinic's in, please?
01:20:39The what?
01:20:41Apparently there's a private clinic round here.
01:20:43A big old building, about a mile from the centre of town.
01:20:47Well, there's a place up there. Eye wall around it.
01:20:50Yes, that's it.
01:20:52I don't think it's a clinic, though, is it?
01:20:54I think so. Thanks a lot.
01:20:56Always thought it was the old jail.
01:21:05Come on, let's go.
01:21:36Come on.
01:22:02Is this the clinic?
01:22:05Who do you want?
01:22:07I believe a girl named Annemarie de Vernie was brought here yesterday.
01:22:10I'm a friend of hers. I wondered if I could see her.
01:22:13There's nobody of that name here.
01:22:15This is a clinic. I was told it was.
01:22:19Wait there, would you?
01:22:24Since you ask so nicely.
01:22:36Thank you.
01:23:00Do sit down.
01:23:01Thank you.
01:23:03I'm sorry I wasn't told your name.
01:23:04It's King. Julia King.
01:23:06I'm afraid I've caused you rather a lot of trouble.
01:23:09I'm not even sure if I'm in the right place.
01:23:11I couldn't ascertain from your colleague whether this was a clinic.
01:23:15It is, yes, but private patients only.
01:23:17Well, I think the lorry driver I spoke to was quite sure that he did bring Annemarie here last night.
01:23:22Last night?
01:23:24Oh, what does your friend look like?
01:23:26Young, long fair hair, about five foot, pretty.
01:23:29Oh, but surely that was, what was her name?
01:23:32Phillips, the Phillips girl.
01:23:35No, I wasn't here myself last night.
01:23:37But I think a girl was admitted.
01:23:40Nurse Johnson dealt with it.
01:23:43Ah, yes, here it is, Rosemary Phillips.
01:23:47Usual thing, hitchhiking, attacked on the road.
01:23:51But she wasn't hurt badly.
01:23:53Yes, that was the girl I saw this morning.
01:23:56That was the girl I saw this morning.
01:23:58Her parents came to collect her.
01:24:00She didn't have a French accent.
01:24:02Oh, no, no, quite obvious to another girl.
01:24:04Yes, well, it seems as though I've come all this way for nothing.
01:24:08Not too far, I hope.
01:24:10Yes, London.
01:24:12Oh, how maddening. May we give you a lift to the station?
01:24:14No, it's quite right. I'm very grateful for your help.
01:24:16Not at all. I'm sorry you've had such a long journey.
01:24:18Never mind.
01:24:20Oh, there is just one thing.
01:24:22Do you think I could bring my boyfriend?
01:24:24I might be able to persuade him to pick me up at Paddington.
01:24:26I don't think the phone...
01:24:28Oh, I'll pay, of course. It's long distance. I nearly forgot.
01:24:30Why not?
01:24:40No reply.
01:24:50Hello?
01:24:52Oh, Julia.
01:24:54Yes, I just got in.
01:24:56Yes, I thought it was too good to be true.
01:24:58Still, I'm coming back now. Be an angel and...
01:25:01Mark!
01:25:05Trouble, Tony! Terrible trouble! Help me, the critic!
01:25:11Julia? Julia!
01:25:13Hello?
01:25:17You have abused your privilege.
01:25:19Where's Anne-Marie?
01:25:21If you've got her, I want to see her.
01:25:23Do you now?
01:25:24Well then, you shall.
01:25:51Well, do you want to see her or don't you?
01:25:54Yes.
01:25:59Anne-Marie?
01:26:05Cut her down! Cut her down!
01:26:08For what purpose?
01:26:10She's been dead for some hours.
01:26:14How did it happen?
01:26:16Oh, really, my dear.
01:26:18What's been happening here?
01:26:20What made her do it?
01:26:21Young woman, you appear to be fully aware of your surroundings.
01:26:24This is a prison. Those locked in it are criminals.
01:26:27To fairly did not commit suicide.
01:26:29She was justly executed for breaking the law.
01:26:33You mean you've... you killed her?
01:26:36I do not propose to enter into a discussion of that kind.
01:26:39You murdered her!
01:26:41Quiet!
01:26:43I'm going to the police!
01:26:45You're nothing of the kind!
01:26:48You dare challenge my authority?
01:26:49You dare challenge my authority?
01:26:51To overthrow me as governess of this institution?
01:26:53You must be insane!
01:26:55You'll be tried immediately for conspiracy.
01:26:57Walk her locker up and prepare the courtroom.
01:27:00Conspiracy.
01:27:02Conspiracy.
01:27:04I can't be the only one with a penalty.
01:27:11Let me go!
01:27:13Damn you! Get your hands off me!
01:27:15Blasphemy!
01:27:17You misunderstand, King.
01:27:19I want nothing from you except to keep your mouth shut.
01:27:21But I'm not giving you that satisfaction!
01:27:23I'll stand here and scream the place down!
01:27:25I'm not listening to you!
01:27:27Walker!
01:27:29This is wrong, Margaret.
01:27:31Get on with it or I'll do it myself.
01:27:33I'll do it myself, do you hear me?
01:27:35Julia King, you are charged with conspiring to pervert the course of justice.
01:27:41How do you plead?
01:27:43Guilty or not guilty?
01:27:45That woman is a murderess!
01:27:46She killed Anne-Marie Giverny in cold blood!
01:27:49Judge her up, Walker.
01:27:51What did she say?
01:27:53Pass sentence, Gesmund.
01:27:55She's a dangerous psychopath and must be hanged immediately.
01:27:57Pass sentence.
01:28:10Excuse me, is there a clinic around here?
01:28:13A private clinic, something like that?
01:28:14Not that I know of, no.
01:28:16Okay, thanks.
01:28:24Excuse me, is there a clinic around here?
01:28:26A hospital, something like that?
01:28:28No, no.
01:28:32Crucia at the bar.
01:28:34Have you anything to say before I pass sentence?
01:28:39This is a travesty, a travesty!
01:28:41This is a travesty, a travesty of justice!
01:28:45All right.
01:28:47Let us say one thing, one thing only.
01:28:50I'll play your game.
01:28:52I want to see my lawyer.
01:28:54Denied.
01:28:56That's illegal and you know it!
01:28:58I won't be trying that!
01:28:59Gesmund.
01:29:06Virginia King,
01:29:08you have been convicted of conspiring to pervert the course of justice.
01:29:19Get her!
01:29:21Get her back!
01:29:23The verdict of this court
01:29:24is that you be taken from here to a place of execution
01:29:29where you will be hanged by the neck
01:29:32until you are dead.
01:29:35And may the Lord have mercy on your soul.
01:29:51You won't get rid of me a second time.
01:29:54Oh, no.
01:29:56I'll see to that.
01:30:00I was told there's a clinic in this area. Do you know where it could be?
01:30:04Clinic? What, you mean hospital-like?
01:30:06Yes, anything like that, yes.
01:30:08Oh, I don't think so. Henry?
01:30:10No hospital around here, is there?
01:30:12As far as I know, there might be, though.
01:30:14What about that woman that comes in here every week?
01:30:17She's got a nurse's uniform, hasn't she?
01:30:19What woman?
01:30:21You know, the one who gets a big order every Saturday.
01:30:22Oh, Lord!
01:30:24What did she say?
01:30:26Well, she always wears a sort of grey tunic, but I shouldn't have thought...
01:30:28Where does she come from?
01:30:30Oh, I don't rightly know.
01:30:32She drives in from that direction, doesn't she, Henry?
01:30:34I always thought she might come from that big old place,
01:30:36you know, on the right going on.
01:30:38Yes, yes, that's right.
01:30:40That's only a guess, though.
01:30:52Henry!
01:31:14I'm going to get you, Hansel.
01:31:16You think I'm going to let you escape this time, don't you?
01:31:19This time, I'm going to get you, Hansel.
01:31:22You think you're going to escape me,
01:31:25but this time you're not.
01:31:43I was the only one who saw the rot
01:31:45that is seized at Coswell Grange, wasn't I?
01:31:49But they wouldn't listen, though,
01:31:51if they didn't see it.
01:31:55Girls.
01:31:58Filthy, depraved animals.
01:32:01Treating it like a holiday hotel.
01:32:04And then running out to commit more crime.
01:32:07Pollute society.
01:32:11And laughing at me.
01:32:12All of them.
01:32:15And Hansen.
01:32:17She laughed.
01:32:21But I made the punishment fit the crime.
01:32:24Taught the animal to obey.
01:32:29Suicide, they said.
01:32:33They didn't know, though, did they?
01:32:37Do you hear that, Hansen?
01:32:38I will not be dismissed.
01:32:42Are you laughing at me now, Hansen?
01:32:45I'm going to stop you laughing when I find you.
01:33:08Hansen.
01:33:39Hansen.
01:33:41Hansen.
01:34:07Robert.
01:34:10Robert.
01:34:40Robert.
01:35:11What have you done?
01:35:21Mother.
01:35:24I found her.
01:35:29I didn't do it.
01:35:31Mommy didn't do it.
01:35:34Mommy wouldn't do a thing like that.
01:35:36She loves you.
01:35:37Please get up.
01:35:39Nothing's happened.
01:36:01Quick, madam.
01:36:02We're getting out.
01:36:03Where is she, Bates?
01:36:05Bring her to me.
01:36:09We must go, madam.
01:36:23Jesus Christ.
01:36:34Do you mind if I ask you ladies a couple of questions?
01:36:58Margaret.
01:37:00Margaret.
01:37:01Margaret.
01:37:03Margaret.
01:37:06Oh, dear Lord.
01:37:32If there be a controversy between men and they come to judgment that the judges may judge them,
01:37:39then they shall justify the righteous and condemn the wicked.
01:37:44And it shall be, if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten,
01:37:49that the judge shall cause him to lie down and to be beaten before his face
01:37:55according to his fault by a certain number.
01:37:58Forty stripes he may give him and not exceed.
01:38:02Lest, if he should exceed and beat him above these with many stripes,
01:38:07then thy brother should seem vile unto thee.
01:38:28Amen.
