Bertie?

Where are you!?

It's okay, Sprout.

I've gotcha.

-Why does she...
-Shh.

Come here.

Well, they were out of control.

-Just wait until I tell
Mrs. Appleyard. -You will not.

I don't think that you are fit

to be in charge of young ladies.

Perhaps...

perhaps I watch out for them
in other ways.

-I forgot she was there.
-Oh...

:
Oh, Sara.

-Here.
-I want... to see...

Irma.

Irma is gone.

Cook's made
your favorite breakfast.

Porridge with treacle.

Come on,
Tom'll be fatter than me

if he keeps scoffing
all these meals you won't touch.

Porridge with treacle
is my brother's favorite.

-Yeah.

He's coming for me, Minnie.
I know it.

Of course he is.

And he'd want you to eat,
to stay strong.

Bertie's the best rider.

He loves horses.

We'll join a circus.

Is that so?

Well, eat up, then.

Miranda says there are
pretty circus ladies

who ride horses,
and they stand on one leg.

We really should pack up
Miranda Reid's things.

For safekeeping.

Yes, ma'am.

Your shoulders are the bane
of Miss Lumley's life.

You know,
if you didn't slouch...

well, you wouldn't need
the posture board, would you?

I've come to understand

what a clever
little spy you are.

You must have a great collection
of special secrets.

I was your age once.

I know all about
collecting secrets.

You don't know anything.

APPLEYARD:
Hysteria

is an unattractive malady
which must be extinguished.

The remedy shall be fresh air

and organ music.

It is the Sabbath.

This morning we shall return

-to church.
: Oh...

Please collect your hats,

gloves and capes.

Blanche, make sure that
the girls proceed to the drag

in an orderly fashion.

Yes, Mrs. Appleyard.

Off you go.

Watch your step.

Miss Lumley.

Take Sara to her room.

She appears to have a rash.
Keep an eye on her.

Wait. You mean... stay here?

But I'll miss the sermon.

I'm sure your faith
is strong enough to be tested.

Indeed it is.

Well, well, well.

Hello, Hester, luv.

Give it back.

Give it back. Give it back!

Drive on, Mr. Hussey.
We're going home.

Drive on!

Giddyap! Hey-oh!

What dark souls people have
behind their smiling faces.

We'd never have imagined.

Those young ladies
have been defiled

and tossed into the ravine
a dozen times a day

since they've disappeared.

Well, that shows
how ignorant people are.

Outrages occur
behind innocent front doors,

not out in nature.

I was starting to wonder if
there could have been foul play.

If they're at the bottom
of a ravine,

it's because they
held hands and jumped.

Don't look at me like that.

Have you any idea what goes on
inside the minds of girls

that age, what they get up to
when they're not supervised?

It must have seemed like

such a grand adventure
at first.

So, are you gonna marry me?

I already said yes.

-Stay here.

You're all maniacs!

WILKINS:
Steady there. Easy now.

Put the gun down.

Miss Sara.

Are you all right?

Girls, look away.

Inside. Quickly.

Sorry to do this
in front of the girls.

NOLAN:
Lying bitch!

I see you two are acquainted.

There was an incident
with one of the girls.

Which girl?

Miranda Reid.

He showed an unwelcome interest.

It was at the government
cottage fête.

It was unimportant.
He was drunk then, too.

Trodden on by his horse.

-Bullshit.
-Language.

Sluice him down
before you put him in the wagon.

Yes, boss.

Why do you own a gun?

It belonged to my late husband.

Why did you station an officer
on my property without asking

-I heard
you were having some trouble

with a possum.

Sergeant,
I have told you before,

this is a ladies' college,

and I am charged
with their reputations.

That is an Enfield.
It's a highwayman's gun.

What are you doing
with a highwayman's gun,

-Speaking of highwaymen,

any news on the two riders?

I believe they were shearers.

Since when do shearers ride
valuable horses?

You will remove yourself
and the young pup

you've sent to guard us
immediately.

I am more than capable
of looking after my own girls.

If I had been on that picnic,

none of this
would have happened.

Why didn't you go on the picnic?

I dislike
the Australian landscape.

It is insubordinate.

GIRL:
Where did she find the gun?

GIRL 2: I don't know,
but I don't trust her.

-She's dangerous.
-Lucky she didn't shoot us.

(conversation continues
indistinctly)

SARA:
How many days on the train?

MIRANDA:
Five.

Just you and me, then two days'
drive from Mackay.

Ooh, Reg, Reg, Reg, Reg!

Oh.

Surely these girls
should be more modest?

Well, if you change your mind,
I'll be at the Menzies.

I've ordered marrons glacés
so it should still feel

like Christmas
even in this horrid heat.

I love Christmas here.

It's peaceful.

I get to read all day.

Venez les filles. We must go.

Your mom must be very busy
wrapping all your presents.

We will take you to your house
on our way to the station.

Thank you.

Blanche, in the back.

I'm just so excited...

♪ ♪

They're cleaning.

Everything's covered
in dust sheets.

It's nice and cool in here.

Not for long.
I'm boiling these buggers.

Off you go.

I just did the floors in there,
Miss Marion.

So shoo.

-Christmas spirit
everywhere we turn.

My father sent me
a crate of books.

So I heard.

You can borrow any you'd like.

Our room bakes in the afternoon.

I know a nook.

What are you reading?

The Turn of the Screw.

Sounds dull.
Is it about carpentry?

I don't think so.

I can go back to the beginning
if you like.

"The story had held us,

"round the fire,
sufficiently breathless,

"but for the obvious remark
that it was gruesome,

as on Christmas Eve
in an old house."

"Gruesome." Go on.

"I remember no comment uttered
till somebody happened to say

"that it was the only case
he had met in which

such a visitation
had fallen on a child."

A visitation.

"The apparition had reached
the landing halfway up

"and was therefore on the spot
nearest the window,

"where at the sight of me,
it stopped short

"and fixed me exactly
as it had fixed me

from the tower
and from the garden."

Oh, my Lord. Go on.

"He knew me
as well as I knew him;

"and so, in the cold,
faint twilight,

"with a glimmer
in the high glass

"and another on the polish
of the oak stair below,

we faced each other
in our common intensity."

"He was absolutely,
on this occasion,

a living, detestable,
dangerous presence."

We should go.
Cook will skin us alive.

We could continue after dinner.

In the dark?

I'll have night terrors.

Well, that would be
the fun of it.

No one can sleep tonight.

I think Mrs. Appleyard
has gone up to the tower.

That's odd.

Shall I go on?

Oh, I wish we'd never started
this terrible story.

Don't stop.

Do you believe in ghosts?

I don't know.

"She isn't there, little lady.

"Nobody's there.

"How can poor Miss Jessel
be there

when poor Miss Jessel's
dead and buried?"

It's interesting to me

that you chose to remain here
for Christmas,

despite the luxuries offered
by Miss Leopold.

Yes, I did.

Have you considered
what you'll do

when you finish
your senior year?

Not really.

Unfortunately, Marion,

the sort of husband you deserve
is unlikely to propose.

I would like to offer you work.

What sort of work?

Teaching history.

You would have your own room.

You would eat meals
with the staff.

Obviously, you wouldn't interact
with the parents directly,

but you may come to view that as
a privilege, not a punishment.

Naturally, you will receive
the same wage

as the other teachers

with holiday entitlements.

How generous.

Thank you, Mrs. Appleyard.

Hello, ladies. I'm back.

Where's Marion?

History's so dull.

Will you accept?

Yes.

For one reason only.

Shall we find out how it ends?

I don't want it to end.

Everything ends

unless you stay in between.

It's easier there.

In between?

What does that mean?

GIRL:
Welcome back.

So good to see you.

Did you have a nice holiday?

-Irma's cross with me.

I don't know.

Blanche is her favorite now.

She's invited her
to sleep in our room.

How was your holiday?

-It was sublimely stupendous.

-I rescued a baby wallaby.
-Ooh.

A joey.

And my horse was called Beetle.

He taught me how to ride him.

Yeah, Beatle's quite chatty
for a horse.

I had a sublimely
stupendous time, too.

ALBERT: Well, well, well,
how about this?

Didn't expect you.

Thought you'd be on the run
after what happened.

I needed to get away.

Get my head straight.

Make some decisions.

I can understand that.

I'm gonna go travelling
up north.

Queensland for starters.

Meant to be beautiful country
up there.

Thought I'd visit
Miss Reid's family.

Pay my respects.

And...

Albert, I...

I want you to come with me.

Wouldn't be right.

Couldn't leave your uncle
in the lurch.

Well, I'm sure he could
replace you easily enough.

-You told me
you like travelling.

I do.

But I'm, um...

...I'm a working man.

Wouldn't be able to pay my way.

We wouldn't be equals.

No.

Not in that way.

But...

we would be equals
in every other sense.

That's the way
that matters to me.

Yes.

Of course.

As you know, a number of girls

have been withdrawn
by their parents.

I expect there will be others
who will not return

after the Easter holiday.

I will rename the college,

then advertise.

From today, the missing
are not to be spoken of

or referred to by the girls.

I have given it
a great deal of thought.

I have their best interests
at heart.

Miss Lumley.

Our daily prayers
will no longer remember them.

Yes, a great misadventure
has befallen us,

but we must lay down
this burden.

From this moment on,

it will be as though
they never existed.

I'd like to box your ears!

You're old enough to know
better, that's for damn sure.

You won't improve on her.

Money and beauty.

What on earth are you thinking?

I'm thinking a man's measure

-is an honest day's work.

And I've never done a day
of work in my entire life.

Now, listen to me, Michael.

We Fitzhuberts...

It's Mike.

Not Michael.
