This baby's almost ready to be born.
For her children.

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:07,240
Your mongrels are mine by law.
She cannot be seen.

3
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:11,080
The Spartans are in
for some very fine sport.

4
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:12,400
How did you find me?!

5
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:13,800
Your dear friend Margaret Wells.

6
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,760
I found a treasure.

7
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:19,120
<font color="
You'll be Lucy's keeper?

8
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:20,600
I'm now your master and your lord.

9
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:21,800
You may not ever refuse me!

00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:23,120
HE GRUNTS

11
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,680
Lucy will be damned.
Her soul will burn for murder.

12
00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:28,560
HE GASPS

13
00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:29,840
It's my murder now.

15
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:34,680
We'll hang for this.

BIRDS CHIRP

00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,800
INDISTINCT CHATTER

WOMAN: Look out.

19
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:55,520
A gentleman.

20
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,040
Where are you going?

21
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,200
Pa and Jacob didn't
come home last night.

<font color="

23
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,440
I'm coming with you.

No.

25
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,680
I'll not be cosseted.

26
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,360
Not any more.

DOG BARKS AND BELLS TOLL OUTSIDE

00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:04,240
What are you doing?

29
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:08,400
I'm going to Ma's house.

30
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,640
Charlotte, you can't. I need to know
<font color="

31
00:03:13,640 --> 00:03:15,520
No, it makes no odds what happened.

32
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,920
Whether your man lived or died, your
neck's in the noose.

33
00:03:17,920 --> 00:03:20,840
We need to leave. Why must I run
when I haven't done anything wrong?

34
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,720
Because it looks like you have,
<font color="

35
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,200
I need to know that Lucy's safe.

36
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,600
Let your mother plot
to keep Lucy safe...

37
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,360
..and we'll do the same for us.

38
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,360
Charlotte. Do you have brothers or
sisters?

39
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,360
Many. But not two of us within 100
<font color="

40
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,360
that's what happens.

41
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,720
Fate scatters you like seed.

42
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,520
I won't just leave her.

43
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,760
What if I go to the house
once I've arranged passage,

44
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,080
will that satisfy you?

45
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,200
You'll tell me truthfully what you
find?

Oh...

Oh..

51
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,360
SHE WHIMPERS

52

Mrs Quigley, please!

53

Oh, please, I'm begging you!
Shh-shh-shh-shh.

the foundling hospital,

but when they came to take him away,

57
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,680
he grabbed a handful of my
hair and wouldn't let go.

58
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,080
"This one's a fighter," I thought.

59
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:19,200
But instead, he's as pliable as
dough,

He has a big, kind heart...

..and it pains me that I've hurt
him.

64
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,680
The true pain awaits.

No, Mrs Quigley! No!

No, Mrs Quigley! No, no!

Where are the family?

Are we expected to pretend
nothing happened here last night?

That's the constables come for us

It'll just be a caller.

Nance?!

Will didn't come home last night.

I thought you'd both been taken.

If I'm forced to look
at your wicked face,

I might be inclined to break it.

00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:23,160
Why?

Emily.

Get in.

You stay there, Lucy Wells - there
are things you don't need to hear.

96
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:42,520
I'll stay with my mother.

I did it for Lucy.

If you had...children,
then you'd understand.

102
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,120
It isn't motherhood

103
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,840
It's greed.

104
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,840
You're only a hairpiece

Where are Will and Jacob?

107
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,640
They walked into the night

Everyone else will follow....

Whose worm?

Your Ma gave Emily Lacey

My ma does nothing without good
cause.

This is not the work of
common thieves, Constable.

His courtesan came here last night

They were smeared in blood and
filth.

I knew they were fleeing from
villainy,

127

<font color="
quarrelled two nights ago.

129
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,240
She made the most
outlandish accusations.

130
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,320
She is a fiend...

131
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,360
..dressed as a damsel.

132
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,840
You'll need to repeat all
this to the magistrate.

133
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,960
If it will see justice done.

I expected to find you convalescing.

137

I came to look for you in the night
and you weren't there.

138

I was searching for Emily Lacey.

139
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,360
But she has disappeared into the
gutter

140
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,880

Kindness is a cruelty.

In trying to protect you,

It's time you learn

I have deprived this house

00:11:05,680 --> 00:11:08,680
Sir, I must speak to you
about a troubling occurrence.

149
00:11:08,680 --> 00:11:10,160
A young girl has been kidnapped.

150
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,040
And Sir George Howard
has been slaughtered,

151
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,840
so everything else will have to
wait.

152
00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,360
We were visited by Sir
<font color="

153
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,920
He dipped his biscuit,
got as drunk as a lord,

154
00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,320
and left late in a hackney carriage.

155
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,720
What happened after
that, we can only surmise.

156
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,440
His pickled carcass was dragged

157
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,000
from St James's pond early this
morning.

Where is Mr North?

161
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,560
I don't know where he is.
Mr North...

162
00:12:18,560 --> 00:12:20,720
He's already in chains
and we will follow.

163
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,360
If they'd been caught, we
would have heard about it.

BANGING CONTINUES

Mrs Wells, I need to confide in
you.

169
00:12:33,560 --> 00:12:35,840
And I must also speak with you.

170

What did you do with him?

174
00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,200
They dragged him out the pond
near his house this morning.

175
00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,440
Oh, Ma, could you not
have made him disappear?

176
00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:02,200
And have the last time he was seen
be his arrival at my front door?

It's not better for me.

179

Howard and I fought in front of half
the town two nights ago.

180
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,520
And I was seen at his house last
night.

181
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,040
Why did you go there?
To take what is mine.

182
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:19,320
You're a fool.

183
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,720
<font color="

184
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,600
Are you blaming me?

185
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:25,000
No.

186
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:29,160
What will you do, Charlotte?

187
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,600
I'll have to leave.
No!

188
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,040
She risks hanging if she stays.

189
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,840
You kill a man but
it's me who has to run?

190
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,520
<font color="
Yes, it was!

191
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,760
She didn't wield the knife
but she forced your legs open

192
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,600
for any letch with a fortune.

193
00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,240
She let them fill your
belly with anger and disgust.

194
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,640
You did this!

195
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:58,520
Then I'll turn myself in.

196
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,720
<font color="
I will leave...

197
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,880
..for you've left me no choice.

198
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,360
Maybe it's better this way.

199
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,240
Just for a while.

200
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,000
That way no-one has to die.

201
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,120
You'll land on your feet,
as you always have done.

202
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,280
Thank you, Ma.

203
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,480
<font color="

204
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,280
I can suck and fuck and flatter
anywhere in the world.

205
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,440
I couldn't stop them.

206
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,040
Charlotte Wells, you're
wanted for murder. Take her.

207
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,600
You slander me. I've killed
no-one! You cannot take her!

208
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:30,720
<font color="
Irishman!

209
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,960
So you can accuse him too?
It wasn't her!

210
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:35,840
Get your hands off me! I'm no
murderess!

211
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:36,920
Let me go!

212
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,400
Ma! I've done nothing wrong!

213
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,800
But!

214
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,040
But!

215
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,760
<font color="

216
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:46,320
But!

217
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:47,960
Charlotte Wells has been arrested.

218
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,400
LAUGHTER

219
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:56,040
Or the other way round!

220
00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,160
LAUGHTER

221
00:14:58,160 --> 00:14:59,280
A visitor, Mumma.

222
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:04,720
Personally, I can never tell
which way round they are.

223
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,640
Join us, Charles.

<font color="
Scanwell

225
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:14,400
was once the filthiest of
whores?

226
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,680
For enough coinage, she
would allow groups of sailors

227
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:21,080
to fill her every orifice all at
once.

228
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,680
It's quite the speciality.

00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,280
the nobleman who kept her.

231
00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:30,920
She was dragged from her
mother's house by constables.

232
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:37,800
Miss Pettifer, take Mrs
Scanwell to the door.

233
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,920
You threatened my daughter.

234
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,960
I need your assurance
<font color="

235
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,320
London is a den of peril.

236
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,320
No-one is safe.

237
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,160
This way, Mrs Scanwell.

238
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:07,520
Margaret Wells has dropped her prize
in the gutter.

239
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,120
Get off me!

240
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,400
That's the dirty puzzle
who murdered her master.

deeper than your own?

242
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,600
HE LAUGHS

00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:20,800
MAN: Fuck off!

00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,800
You still don't seem yourself,
Fanny.

246
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:37,000
I hope you're not under the weather.

247
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,520

Stop.

251
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,120
It's as dead as a salted slug.

252
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:08,600
Sorry.

253
00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,960
You cannot know the baby's mine.

254
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,720
Brothel babies aren't anyone's.

255
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:30,520
Mr North said he'd help
me get my children back.

256
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,200
<font color="
You don't know if he will return.

257
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,320
And even if he does, Benjamin
could have them on a ship by then.

258
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,080
I need more money.

259
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:47,000
You have just seen my own daughter
be dragged away by constables.

260
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,760
I appreciate your pain...

KNOCK ON DOOR

00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,200
Mrs Wells, I'm a friend of
Charlotte's.

264
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,680
She asked me to look in on you...

265
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,680
..in light of your recent trouble.

266
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,880
I don't know what you're talking
about.

267
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:14,920
I don't know you.

268
00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:17,480
<font color="
her concerns are misplaced.

269
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,440
She's just been taken
from me by the constables.

270
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,920
For your murder?

271
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,000
I don't know what she's told you,

272
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,400
but I assume you're the reason

273
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,080
she couldn't settle with her
gentleman.

274
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,160
<font color="

275
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,720
You put this right or I will.

276
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,760
Do you think he'll go to the
constables?

277
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,480
And risk being charged himself?

278
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,440
He don't love her that much.

279
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,760
Let me come with you to see her.

280
00:18:53,360 --> 00:18:55,000
No.

281
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,400
It's bad enough one of my girls

283
00:18:58,360 --> 00:19:00,360
I'll not have you there as well.

00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,640
Hello, sir.

285
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,360
I heard you have an...ace of spades.

286
00:19:09,360 --> 00:19:11,000
Indeed we do, sir.

287
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:13,160
She'll be your lucky card.

288
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:14,400
Harriet!

289
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,960
Three guineas for your pleasure,

It's all I can spare.

291
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,200
I wasn't asking for money.

292
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,040
You will come back, won't you?

293
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,800
Some men come here
to forget their wives.

294
00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:51,680
I come to remember how mine used to
be.

295
00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,080
Long before raising

297
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,440
It's a pitiless world for mothers.

298
00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:09,080
Constable?

299
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,280
I know where you can find a wanted
man.

300
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:19,120
I saw a girl taken from a brothel.

301
00:20:19,120 --> 00:20:21,000
Her name is Emily Lacey,

302
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,280
and the kidnapper was Mrs Quigley.

303
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:25,920
<font color="

304
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:33,240
I appreciate you bringing
this to my attention.

305
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:37,720
Have you been down to the cells
to look at Charlotte Wells yet?

306
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,680
No, sir. She's rumoured to be
the most beautiful whore in London.

307
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,760
And you are a connoisseur of
<font color="

00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:49,040
though more the calibre
that give you cock warts.

309

Daniel Marney, you are wanted
for the murder of Sir George Howard.

310
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,520
I'm innocent! I'm innocent!

311
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:07,680
If you're innocent, why do you
resist?

312
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,800
We're taking you to the magistrate.

Justice Cunliffe?

00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:26,440
I'm here to plead on
behalf of my daughter,

316

Miss Charlotte Wells.

317
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,680
Madam, you have some
audacity to approach me.

318
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,080
I threatened you with flogging
<font color="

319
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,960
And I would risk it for five
minutes of your time, sir.

320
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:41,680
Your girl struck down a nobleman,
it seems a clear enough case.

321
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:42,760
She is innocent.

322
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,800
Sir George's estate manager
saw her blood-soaked from the crime.

His eyes are black with deceit.

324
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,520
He is a respected servant, madam.

Liars are cut from all manner of
cloth.

My daughter is not a murderess.

327
00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,080
Then she'll be vindicated at trial.

328
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,560
When will that be?

329
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,000
The day after tomorrow.

330
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,240

the next hanging day

Your she-bitch of a mother

My ma's no friend of the law.

334

The constable knew I'd
come from Greek Street.

335
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,480
Your ma's whatever she needs to be.

337

We would have been free.

There's a beggar
looking for alms, Mother.

339
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:52,560
Let me give her something.

340
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:54,080
Don't be long.

341
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:56,680
And make sure you lock
the door behind you.

We can't meet any more.

345
00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:12,640
Because I made a joke about your ma?

346
00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:14,680
Because we've been seen.

347
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,520
If my mother finds out...

348
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,600
..it will finish her.

349
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:23,680

Yes.

I couldn't wake him.
Is he a relative?

356

He's more important than that.

00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:24,760
I have no money, and even if I did,
a proper doctor wouldn't come here.

361
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,000
I've nothing to give you.

362
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,200
Is there no-one you can ask?

363
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,280
There is.

I will make a physician come.

367
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,840
Pray for him in case he is taken.

368
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,320
Do you fear death more...

369
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,560
..because you are sinners?

370
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:04,680
Love's not a sin.

371
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,080
Lydia.

I want the Wells daughter

Well, then, set him
dancing on a gibbet.

375
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,720
And what if she were the architect?

376
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:29,640
I must investigate

Or they might go without their
supper.

380
00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:43,520
I know you have already
procured their catch.

381
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:47,200
If the Spartans don't
dispatch her, who will?

382
00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:49,840
You?

Do not test our

HUSHED CHATTER

What business have you?

What do you want?
Your mumma...

Where's she taken Emily?

Mumma doesn't know or care where
Emily Lacey is.

When did your mother ever let a dog
lie?

403
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:15,440

Mr Haxby...

Charlotte.

You call yourself a man of faith?

407
00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:52,280
You are knowingly sending an
innocent girl to her death.

408
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:55,520
As.

Do you think your

I don't think very

Do you know the penalty
if you are convicted?

00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:42,800
Hanging.

417
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:45,800
Killing your master is petty

For that, we draw and quarter men,

The method is supposed

Though, of course, your shift

long before the flames

424
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,040

I do not seek congress

I seek a just outcome

428

And what would that be?

429
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:32,960
The Irishman is noose fodder.

Men like him don't live until old

I did not kill Sir George,

Mrs Wells...

Her interest in your

443
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,640
We must join forces against her.

My little boy goes to sleep

447
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,080
like a cankerous lullaby.

448
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,760
If you will not help for my sake...

449
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,160

I assume you have bedded her.

460

Alas, today, we realise

what a high price you'll pay for
her.

or seek you out once the crime was
done?

00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:15,960
Either way, she's used you
like the witless mick you are.

466
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,160
She is innocent and so am I.

467
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,480
No jury'll hang either of us.

But a baronet is dead,
so someone will have to.

471

What did the magistrate say to you?

Nothing I didn't already know.

00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:32,880
The court will deal with her.

541
00:39:35,640 --> 00:39:38,200
<font color="
little backroom court?

542
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,400
Does a girl wait in the dark?

543
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,280
We must postpone.

544
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,640
The house and the girl are
compromised.

545
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,760
I will need to replace both.

546
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:53,880
Then do so.

547
00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:00,440
They are not the only
<font color="

548
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,200
I want a seat at the table,

549
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,240
as you promised me.

550
00:40:10,240 --> 00:40:12,080
Not to take part in the sport,

551
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,480
I have no appetite for that...

552
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:20,000
..but I must know the devil I dine
with.

553
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:28,680
I can take your request to the
others

554
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,080
<font color="

555
00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:37,000
Then you will take my
farewell and best wishes.

556
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,560
Tread carefully, John.

557
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:54,520
Your mother sold me to a pack of
dogs

558
00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:55,920
who planned to rip my throat out.

559
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:57,440
I didn't know anything about it.

560
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,760
You need to take your
<font color="

561
00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:01,080
and see what she's up to.

562
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:03,480
You want me to spy on her?

563
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,040
You can't be on
everyone's side, Charlie.

564
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,920
Where are you going now?
To find Pa and Jacob.

565
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:20,920
I'm going to tell the
magistrates what I did.

566
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:23,640
<font color="

567
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,640
I won't see Charlotte put to death
for something I did.

568
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,040
I'd rather be dead myself.

569
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,040
I've told you, it won't happen.

570
00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:41,800
By what miracle are
you going to stop it?

571
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,040
End.

572
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,040
Give yourself up.

573
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,880
<font color="

574
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,440
Tell them how Sir George
was clinging to life

575
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:56,480
until I peeled his fingers from it.

576
00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,000
We can hang together, holding hands.

577
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,000
It's not a jesting matter, Ma.

578
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,560
Oh, I'm not jesting.

579
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,000
Every girl that was in
<font color="

580
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,440
will rot in a dungeon for their
silence,

581
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,080
and Jacob will read in a newspaper

582
00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:13,000
how we pissed ourselves
as our necks snapped,

583
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,480
and spend the rest of his life
trying to rid himself of the image.

584
00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:20,560
I'm sorry, Ma.

585
00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:23,600
<font color="

586
00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:28,920
But?

587
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,320
Get out.

588
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:36,240
GET OUT!

589
00:42:44,720 --> 00:42:46,680
SHALLOW BREATHING

590
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,480
There is nothing I
wouldn't do for you, Finn.

591
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,400
Charles, where have you been?

592
00:43:18,840 --> 00:43:21,000
Looking for Emily Lacey.

593
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,640
But you were right, she is gone.

594
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,000
<font color="

595
00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:32,680
She will be punished,

596
00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,400
just not at our hands.

597
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:40,560
Oh, you are not yet
recovered, my princeling.

598
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,280
Perhaps I'll rest.

599
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:51,480
You're as gaunt as a Newgate beggar.
Are you unwell?

600
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:54,000
I have a gold nugget for you.

601
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,640
<font color="

602
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,480
It's worth more than a couple of
coins.

603
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,080
I do hope you're not overselling it.

604
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:17,360
Well?

605
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:24,160
The rich man they
dragged from St James's?

606
00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:25,520
He was already dead as flint

607
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:27,680
when he left the Wells'
brothel last night.

608
00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:32,840
<font color="

609
00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,640
I would have paid thrice that.

610
00:44:39,240 --> 00:44:41,080
FANNY SCREAMS

611
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:43,080
SHE GROANS

612
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:45,640
I can't, I can't!

613
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:48,520
SHE SOBS
