Hi, Eloise.
184
00:07:28,740 --> 00:07:30,700
Are you okay? Why is Mia crying?
185
00:07:30,742 --> 00:07:32,077
Oh, you should probably ask her,
186
00:07:32,118 --> 00:07:34,120
'cause I don't understand
her and I never will.
187
00:07:34,162 --> 00:07:35,914
- Rob...
- [sighs]
188
00:07:35,955 --> 00:07:37,290
She forgot this.
189
00:07:37,332 --> 00:07:38,291
Have a nice weekend.
190
00:07:38,333 --> 00:07:39,376
Rob!
191
00:07:39,417 --> 00:07:40,543
[tires squealing]
192
00:07:40,585 --> 00:07:44,130
[Mia crying]
193
00:07:44,172 --> 00:07:46,800
- Mia?
- Is he gone?
194
00:07:46,841 --> 00:07:48,134
Oh...
195
00:07:48,176 --> 00:07:50,637
He asked me to give you these.
196
00:07:50,679 --> 00:07:52,639
Do you want to talk
in my hotel room?
197
00:07:52,681 --> 00:07:54,265
People are staring.
198
00:07:54,307 --> 00:07:55,934
What do they care?
199
00:07:55,975 --> 00:07:58,728
Well, a pretty woman in tears
is always a subject of interest.
200
00:08:03,775 --> 00:08:06,861
[groans]
201
00:08:10,532 --> 00:08:13,034
I take it you are
not engaged...?
202
00:08:13,076 --> 00:08:14,619
We broke up.
203
00:08:14,661 --> 00:08:17,288
[sighs] Mia, why?
What did you do?
204
00:08:17,330 --> 00:08:20,500
- What did I do?!
- Why do you always think it's me?
205
00:08:20,542 --> 00:08:22,919
Sorry! You thought
he was gonna propose!
206
00:08:22,961 --> 00:08:25,171
Well, I can't talk
about it right now.
207
00:08:25,213 --> 00:08:27,215
I just can't go home.
208
00:08:28,925 --> 00:08:31,052
Do you wanna... stay with me?
209
00:08:31,094 --> 00:08:33,555
- You've got your speech.
- You have to network.
210
00:08:33,596 --> 00:08:34,848
Mia, whatever this is,
211
00:08:34,889 --> 00:08:36,516
I'm not letting you
face it on your own.
212
00:08:36,558 --> 00:08:37,684
Thank you!
213
00:08:37,726 --> 00:08:39,686
I promise I won't
be any trouble.
214
00:08:39,728 --> 00:08:42,063
I'll just lie in
bed watching cable,
215
00:08:42,105 --> 00:08:43,523
sobbing into Room Service,
216
00:08:43,565 --> 00:08:45,525
mourning the
destruction of my life.
217
00:08:45,567 --> 00:08:47,277
You won't even see me!
218
00:08:50,196 --> 00:08:51,781
Do you want some water?
219
00:08:51,823 --> 00:08:53,366
Uh-uh.
220
00:08:53,408 --> 00:08:54,534
A hot bath?
221
00:08:54,576 --> 00:08:56,077
[muffled] No.
222
00:08:56,119 --> 00:08:58,496
Ice cream?
223
00:08:58,538 --> 00:09:00,040
[muffled] Mm-hm...
224
00:09:04,961 --> 00:09:06,379
JENNY: Professor!
225
00:09:06,421 --> 00:09:08,214
Professor Cavendish?
226
00:09:08,256 --> 00:09:11,301
Professor Cavendish!
227
00:09:11,343 --> 00:09:13,845
Jenny! What are you doing here?
228
00:09:13,887 --> 00:09:16,056
Remember how in your
class I wrote a play
229
00:09:16,097 --> 00:09:17,557
instead of a final paper?
230
00:09:17,599 --> 00:09:19,476
- Vividly!
- Guess what?
231
00:09:19,517 --> 00:09:21,561
The Complete Works of
Jane Austen, Abridged,
232
00:09:21,603 --> 00:09:23,605
is about to become a reality.
233
00:09:23,646 --> 00:09:25,648
I'm producing it
at the conference!
234
00:09:25,690 --> 00:09:27,192
This conference?
235
00:09:27,233 --> 00:09:29,944
The JALA people were really
into my PowerPoint presentation.
236
00:09:29,986 --> 00:09:32,280
I told them how much
you inspired me.
237
00:09:32,322 --> 00:09:35,867
That's wonderful, but the
play was completely your idea.
238
00:09:35,909 --> 00:09:37,869
You know what you
tell us in class:
239
00:09:37,911 --> 00:09:40,246
Women have to go
above and beyond.
240
00:09:40,288 --> 00:09:41,664
BOTH: To get what they want.
241
00:09:41,706 --> 00:09:44,250
This play is my beyond.
242
00:09:44,292 --> 00:09:45,919
You'll come see it, won't you?
243
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,088
I'm gonna be casting it with
members of the conference
244
00:09:48,129 --> 00:09:50,090
and we're gonna be
rehearsing it all weekend
245
00:09:50,131 --> 00:09:52,008
like in Mansfield Park.
246
00:09:52,050 --> 00:09:54,094
Of course, that didn't
work out well for them,
247
00:09:54,135 --> 00:09:56,930
so that scene is cut
from the third act.
248
00:09:56,971 --> 00:09:59,057
Also, the JALA people
didn't like that it was
249
00:09:59,099 --> 00:10:01,142
more than an hour, so
it's just 40 minutes.
250
00:10:01,184 --> 00:10:03,228
And then I decided to
cut Sense and Sensibility
251
00:10:03,269 --> 00:10:04,872
because your note was just
absolutely influential
252
00:10:04,896 --> 00:10:06,481
in the making of this play.
253
00:10:06,523 --> 00:10:10,068
Oh, and then I did a major
rewrite to fit in Lady Susan.
254
00:10:10,110 --> 00:10:13,071
I'll be directing, and I'll be
playing the role of Jane Austen!
255
00:10:13,113 --> 00:10:14,698
[chuckles]
256
00:10:14,739 --> 00:10:16,241
You're... gonna come, right?
257
00:10:16,282 --> 00:10:17,701
I mean, you don't have to,
258
00:10:17,742 --> 00:10:19,285
but I'd, like, die if you don't.
259
00:10:19,327 --> 00:10:21,454
SAM: [clears throat]
260
00:10:21,496 --> 00:10:22,956
Oh, excuse me, Miss.
261
00:10:22,997 --> 00:10:24,582
Wow.
262
00:10:24,624 --> 00:10:29,087
Um, Mr. Lee, this is
my student, Jenny.
263
00:10:29,129 --> 00:10:32,132
I'm sorry, but I need to
speak to Professor Cavendish
264
00:10:32,173 --> 00:10:35,176
on some very important
guest-of-honour business.
265
00:10:36,594 --> 00:10:38,471
Right.
266
00:10:38,513 --> 00:10:40,616
Uh, if you'll excuse us, Jenny,
I'll see you at your theatrical.
267
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:41,808
Okay!
268
00:10:41,850 --> 00:10:43,309
Bye!
269
00:10:43,351 --> 00:10:44,936
Goodbye! [Laughs]
270
00:10:46,813 --> 00:10:48,189
- What is it?
- Oh, nothing.
271
00:10:48,231 --> 00:10:50,191
I just... thought
you needed rescuing.
272
00:10:50,233 --> 00:10:51,317
[chuckles]
273
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,070
Uh, you gave me a pleading look.
274
00:10:54,112 --> 00:10:55,238
Oh. [Laughs]
275
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,365
That wasn't a pleading look.
276
00:10:58,867 --> 00:11:00,827
My eyes rested on
you for a second
277
00:11:00,869 --> 00:11:02,996
and then I immediately
looked away.
278
00:11:03,038 --> 00:11:04,539
Yes.
279
00:11:04,581 --> 00:11:06,207
Well, anyway, there's
a special lesson
280
00:11:06,249 --> 00:11:08,543
to learn all the country
dances for the ball...
281
00:11:08,585 --> 00:11:10,337
Oh, thank you, but
no, I don't dance.
282
00:11:10,378 --> 00:11:11,963
You don't dance?
283
00:11:12,005 --> 00:11:13,256
Well, that can't be true.
284
00:11:13,298 --> 00:11:15,175
If you don't dance, then
you're not a dancer,
285
00:11:15,216 --> 00:11:17,344
and if you're not a dancer,
then how do I reserve
286
00:11:17,385 --> 00:11:18,428
your first dance?
287
00:11:18,470 --> 00:11:19,763
Adorable, aren't they?
288
00:11:19,804 --> 00:11:21,324
They're handing them out
at registration because...
289
00:11:21,348 --> 00:11:22,515
Please stop.
290
00:11:22,557 --> 00:11:24,017
Stop what?
291
00:11:24,059 --> 00:11:26,686
Mr. Lee, there will be no
first dance or second dance,
292
00:11:26,728 --> 00:11:28,563
or any other number.
293
00:11:28,605 --> 00:11:30,315
I will not be
dancing, dressing up,
294
00:11:30,357 --> 00:11:32,776
or pretending to be a teenage
heroine husband-hunting
295
00:11:32,817 --> 00:11:34,361
in a dead century.
296
00:11:34,402 --> 00:11:38,615
I'm a scholar, not some
Fitzwilliam Darcy fan girl.
297
00:11:38,656 --> 00:11:40,325
Fangirl?
298
00:11:40,367 --> 00:11:43,078
I'm not one of these women
who hang off your every word
299
00:11:43,119 --> 00:11:45,497
just because you're
wearing breeches and a hat.
300
00:11:46,998 --> 00:11:48,958
You like attention, Mr. Lee.
301
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,335
There's nothing wrong with that,
302
00:11:50,377 --> 00:11:52,796
but you won't be getting
any of it from me.
303
00:11:54,381 --> 00:11:56,383
Hmm!
304
00:11:56,424 --> 00:11:59,010
You know, you can be a scholar
and still have a little fun.
305
00:11:59,052 --> 00:12:01,930
- [under her breath]
- Dr. Victoria Jennings?
306
00:12:01,971 --> 00:12:03,056
Hmm?
307
00:12:03,098 --> 00:12:04,391
Excuse me!
308
00:12:04,432 --> 00:12:05,558
I need to network.
309
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,435
Enjoy the rest of
the conference!
310
00:12:30,667 --> 00:12:32,252
ELOISE: So many choices!
311
00:12:32,293 --> 00:12:33,712
Oh! [Chuckles]
312
00:12:33,753 --> 00:12:36,214
If you'd like a recommendation,
I am a bit of an expert.
313
00:12:36,256 --> 00:12:38,758
- Oh! [Laughs]
- Well, I'm a complete beginner,
314
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:40,885
so I'll take any
tea tips you have.
315
00:12:40,927 --> 00:12:42,929
- Oh!
- I'm Eloise Cavendish.
316
00:12:42,971 --> 00:12:46,683
Oh, hello! Victoria
Jennings, pleasure.
317
00:12:46,725 --> 00:12:48,143
Oh! Is that my edition?
318
00:12:48,184 --> 00:12:50,562
- Yes!
- Oh, please join me!
319
00:12:53,273 --> 00:12:56,109
VICTORIA: My personal
favourite is the Rose Congou.
320
00:12:56,151 --> 00:12:58,611
It's a bit of an acquired taste,
321
00:12:58,653 --> 00:13:00,405
so we'll start you
in on the Lady Grey.
322
00:13:00,447 --> 00:13:02,198
[chuckles]
323
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:03,283
Two minutes!
324
00:13:03,324 --> 00:13:05,660
Eloise, I'm so glad
I ran into you.
325
00:13:05,702 --> 00:13:07,328
I am looking forward
to your keynote.
326
00:13:07,370 --> 00:13:09,914
- It's quite an honour.
- I just hope I do it justice.
327
00:13:09,956 --> 00:13:12,625
Well, these events
can be challenging.
328
00:13:12,667 --> 00:13:15,128
Not your traditional
academic conference.
329
00:13:15,170 --> 00:13:16,629
The attendees can be so, uh
330
00:13:16,671 --> 00:13:17,964
passionate.
331
00:13:18,006 --> 00:13:19,966
- I've noticed!
- All the costumes, the balls
332
00:13:20,008 --> 00:13:21,760
it's like Comic-Con
for Jane Austen fans.
333
00:13:21,801 --> 00:13:23,386
[both laugh]
334
00:13:23,428 --> 00:13:24,804
Yes, I know!
335
00:13:24,846 --> 00:13:26,806
- [laughs]
- Isn't it marvellous?
336
00:13:26,848 --> 00:13:28,099
[laughs nervously] Mmm!
337
00:13:28,141 --> 00:13:30,101
I look forward to it every year.
338
00:13:30,143 --> 00:13:32,437
I spend all my time
studying Austen,
339
00:13:32,479 --> 00:13:34,123
and then I finally get
a chance to live it!
340
00:13:34,147 --> 00:13:36,399
Uh-huh! Yeah, of course!
341
00:13:36,441 --> 00:13:39,486
I mean, you've got to be able
to enjoy yourself, don't you?
342
00:13:39,527 --> 00:13:42,405
I mean, otherwise, how
can you instill that joy,
343
00:13:42,447 --> 00:13:44,657
that love of literature
to your students?
344
00:13:44,699 --> 00:13:45,950
That's
345
00:13:45,992 --> 00:13:47,577
- such a good point.
- Mmm!
346
00:13:47,619 --> 00:13:50,413
I know some scholars who look
down on JALA as something,
347
00:13:50,455 --> 00:13:52,999
oh, I don't know, unserious.
348
00:13:53,041 --> 00:13:55,543
As if you have to
take Austen seriously
349
00:13:55,585 --> 00:13:57,128
in order to understand her.
350
00:13:57,170 --> 00:13:59,673
Snobs. Dismal, boring snobs!
351
00:13:59,714 --> 00:14:02,550
[both laugh]
352
00:14:02,592 --> 00:14:04,344
Oh, Samuel!
353
00:14:04,386 --> 00:14:06,388
Samuel, come over here
and meet my new friend.
354
00:14:06,429 --> 00:14:08,264
Oh, you don't have
to. He's clearly busy.
355
00:14:08,306 --> 00:14:09,891
Samuel!
356
00:14:09,933 --> 00:14:12,519
Uh, Professor Cavendish, I'd
like to introduce... muah!
357
00:14:12,560 --> 00:14:13,853
My nephew.
358
00:14:13,895 --> 00:14:16,439
He plays Mr. Darcy
at the conference.
359
00:14:16,481 --> 00:14:18,108
Oh, we've met.
360
00:14:18,149 --> 00:14:20,860
Uh, Sam was kind enough to
get me from the airport.
361
00:14:20,902 --> 00:14:22,445
He's my guest-of-honour liaison.
362
00:14:22,487 --> 00:14:24,739
He's been... great.
363
00:14:24,781 --> 00:14:26,908
Well of course, the
official JALA Mr. Darcy
364
00:14:26,950 --> 00:14:30,870
shouldn't be anything less
than a perfect gentleman!
365
00:14:30,912 --> 00:14:32,247
[quietly] Works in start-ups.
366
00:14:32,288 --> 00:14:34,082
Single.
367
00:14:34,124 --> 00:14:37,460
Um, we were just saying how
much fun the ball will be.
368
00:14:37,502 --> 00:14:39,379
Oh! Really?
369
00:14:39,421 --> 00:14:40,755
Mm-hm!
370
00:14:40,797 --> 00:14:43,133
Oh, Samuel, she's
a delightful woman.
371
00:14:43,174 --> 00:14:45,319
Not one of those stuffed-shirt
academics who doesn't know
372
00:14:45,343 --> 00:14:47,721
how to cut loose and
party like it's 1810.
373
00:14:47,762 --> 00:14:48,972
[both laugh]
374
00:14:49,014 --> 00:14:50,390
Speaking of which,
375
00:14:50,432 --> 00:14:52,392
you didn't invite her to
the special dance lesson.
376
00:14:52,434 --> 00:14:53,518
She's missing it.
377
00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,103
He did. I told him that I...
378
00:14:55,145 --> 00:14:56,646
Already know all the dances.
379
00:14:56,688 --> 00:14:58,273
- VICTORIA: Really?
- SAMUEL: Oh, yes!
380
00:14:58,314 --> 00:15:01,609
Dr. Cavendish is a huge fan
of English country dancing.
381
00:15:01,651 --> 00:15:04,237
Oh, apparently, she belongs
to an association back home.
382
00:15:04,279 --> 00:15:05,965
- No, I don't...
- SAM: Oh, don't be modest!
383
00:15:05,989 --> 00:15:08,116
No, she knows them all!
384
00:15:08,158 --> 00:15:10,869
The Arlington Assembly,
the Ashford Anniversary,
385
00:15:10,910 --> 00:15:12,996
even Mr. Beveridge's
After Dinner Maggot!
386
00:15:13,038 --> 00:15:15,206
Oh! Which is your favourite?
387
00:15:17,667 --> 00:15:18,960
The After Dinner Maggot...?
388
00:15:19,002 --> 00:15:20,378
Oh, I knew it!
389
00:15:20,420 --> 00:15:22,756
Oh, Samuel, I hope
you reserved a dance!
390
00:15:22,797 --> 00:15:24,382
SAM: Oh, the very first one.
391
00:15:24,424 --> 00:15:27,677
Now, has Eloise told you about
the outfit that she has planned?
392
00:15:27,719 --> 00:15:30,096
- No!
- Uh, Mr. Lee?
393
00:15:30,138 --> 00:15:31,848
Can I steal you for a moment?
394
00:15:31,890 --> 00:15:34,184
Just, I have a few
guest-of-honour questions.
395
00:15:34,225 --> 00:15:36,519
VICTORIA: Oh, but of course!
396
00:15:36,561 --> 00:15:37,645
Take a turn about the room!
397
00:15:37,687 --> 00:15:39,272
[all laugh]
398
00:15:39,314 --> 00:15:41,149
[quietly] Please,
you've made your point.
399
00:15:41,191 --> 00:15:42,317
Really?
400
00:15:42,359 --> 00:15:44,277
Or perhaps I was just
asking for attention.
401
00:15:44,319 --> 00:15:46,446
Mr. Lee, I am so
sorry for what I said!
402
00:15:46,488 --> 00:15:49,449
I can be controlling when I feel
403
00:15:49,491 --> 00:15:50,533
stressed.
404
00:15:50,575 --> 00:15:51,826
Istressed you?
405
00:15:51,868 --> 00:15:53,953
No. Not you. The
whole conference.
406
00:15:53,995 --> 00:15:55,288
Look, I'm on the edge
407
00:15:55,330 --> 00:15:57,499
of something I've worked
for my entire life.
408
00:15:57,540 --> 00:16:00,710
My sister's up in my hotel room
crying with her heart broken.
409
00:16:00,752 --> 00:16:02,379
I took it out on you.
410
00:16:02,420 --> 00:16:05,465
It was no way to treat someone
who's been nothing but kind.
411
00:16:08,843 --> 00:16:11,012
You won't tell your
aunt, will you?
412
00:16:11,054 --> 00:16:12,948
You're up for that new
professorship at Princeton,
413
00:16:12,972 --> 00:16:14,557
aren't you?
414
00:16:14,599 --> 00:16:17,977
So, if there's anything I can
do to make it up to you...
415
00:16:18,019 --> 00:16:20,480
Then you'll do it as long
as I keep my mouth shut?
416
00:16:20,522 --> 00:16:22,065
- Yes.
- Hmm.
417
00:16:23,233 --> 00:16:25,151
Alright.
418
00:16:25,193 --> 00:16:27,070
Actually, I'll do
you one better.
419
00:16:27,112 --> 00:16:29,155
I'll help you get the job.
420
00:16:29,197 --> 00:16:32,158
Now, my aunt may seem
easygoing, but she is not
421
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,053
when it comes to the
Princeton English Department,
422
00:16:34,077 --> 00:16:35,453
and she is definitely not
423
00:16:35,495 --> 00:16:38,123
when it comes to a
Jane Austen scholar.
424
00:16:38,164 --> 00:16:40,667
But I've had a lifetime
to learn what she likes
425
00:16:40,709 --> 00:16:42,794
and what she doesn't, so...
426
00:16:42,836 --> 00:16:44,170
I can advise you.
427
00:16:45,922 --> 00:16:47,215
Why would you do that for me?
428
00:16:47,257 --> 00:16:49,259
Oh, I'm not doing it for you.
429
00:16:49,300 --> 00:16:50,552
Look...
430
00:16:52,929 --> 00:16:55,807
That is Crispin Crane.
431
00:16:57,809 --> 00:16:59,227
Actor turned academic.
432
00:16:59,269 --> 00:17:03,440
He played Mr. Willoughby for
British television in 1986.
433
00:17:03,481 --> 00:17:05,817
He's been hovering around
my aunt like a fruit fly
434
00:17:05,859 --> 00:17:08,194
on a banana. [Sighs]
435
00:17:08,236 --> 00:17:10,405
My aunt practically
blushed when she told me
436
00:17:10,447 --> 00:17:12,824
that she was interviewing
him at the conference.
437
00:17:12,866 --> 00:17:14,993
He's flirting his
way into the job.
438
00:17:15,035 --> 00:17:16,369
You want me to block him?
439
00:17:16,411 --> 00:17:17,704
Yes.
440
00:17:19,247 --> 00:17:23,209
My aunt has suffered
enough heartbreak.
441
00:17:23,251 --> 00:17:25,545
I don't want her to get
hurt by some warmed-up
442
00:17:25,587 --> 00:17:27,922
Willoughby wannabe cad.
443
00:17:27,964 --> 00:17:30,842
So, do we have a deal?
444
00:17:30,884 --> 00:17:32,635
What exactly am I agreeing to?
445
00:17:32,677 --> 00:17:33,928
Well, there's the dancing.
446
00:17:33,970 --> 00:17:35,364
You missed the
special dance lesson,
447
00:17:35,388 --> 00:17:37,098
so you've a lot of
catching up to do.
448
00:17:37,140 --> 00:17:38,391
And the outfit.
449
00:17:38,433 --> 00:17:39,517
The outfit?!
450
00:17:39,559 --> 00:17:41,102
Kelsey can probably
help us with that.
451
00:17:41,144 --> 00:17:43,855
Oh, and I need a partner for
the Lawn Games tournament.
452
00:17:46,107 --> 00:17:48,735
My aunt respects
a killer instinct.
453
00:17:48,777 --> 00:17:52,364
But beyond that, just agree
with her on all matters of taste
454
00:17:52,405 --> 00:17:56,451
and, well, be the fantastic
scholar that JALA says you are.
455
00:18:00,330 --> 00:18:02,499
Deal.
456
00:18:02,540 --> 00:18:04,042
No bowing!
457
00:18:04,084 --> 00:18:05,460
Oh, now, that
458
00:18:05,502 --> 00:18:08,046
you see, that is the sort
of stuffed-shirt attitude
459
00:18:08,088 --> 00:18:09,506
that you're gonna
have to work on.
460
00:18:12,133 --> 00:18:13,426
Text me your room number
461
00:18:13,468 --> 00:18:15,804
and I'll pick you
up at 9:00 am sharp.
462
00:18:24,646 --> 00:18:26,940
Oh, aren't you adorable!
463
00:18:26,981 --> 00:18:28,692
Miss Scott!
464
00:18:28,733 --> 00:18:29,693
What a surprise.
465
00:18:29,734 --> 00:18:32,529
[door opens]
466
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,009
ELIZABETH: [on TV] Mr. Darcy,
I don't understand.
467
00:18:37,033 --> 00:18:38,660
What are you doing here?
468
00:18:38,702 --> 00:18:40,763
DONOVAN: [on TV] You act as
if I invaded your territory!
469
00:18:40,787 --> 00:18:43,123
- Elly-bell? What happened?
- Are you okay?
470
00:18:43,164 --> 00:18:46,835
I'm fine. Just academic
job search stuff.
471
00:18:46,876 --> 00:18:48,378
I got a lot to do tomorrow.
472
00:18:48,420 --> 00:18:49,796
- Wait, should I go?
- No!
473
00:18:49,838 --> 00:18:51,464
Because I can go.
474
00:18:51,506 --> 00:18:55,552
No, I'm not kicking you out
in the middle of the night.
475
00:18:55,593 --> 00:18:56,928
A romcom?
476
00:18:56,970 --> 00:18:58,513
Is now really the time?
477
00:18:58,555 --> 00:19:01,057
Nothing else was on except
that wedding dress show.
478
00:19:01,099 --> 00:19:02,517
Do you have my ice cream?
479
00:19:05,061 --> 00:19:06,438
Uh...
480
00:19:06,479 --> 00:19:09,024
Praline and Prejudice
or Mansfield Chunk?
481
00:19:09,065 --> 00:19:11,067
What's Mansfield Chunk?
482
00:19:11,109 --> 00:19:12,777
Basically Rocky Road
but with coffee.
483
00:19:12,819 --> 00:19:14,279
Yeah!
484
00:19:16,448 --> 00:19:17,449
Oh, yeah.
485
00:19:23,288 --> 00:19:25,123
ELIZABETH: [TV] What
does that mean, exactly?
486
00:19:25,165 --> 00:19:26,082
DONOVAN: [TV] Nothing.
487
00:19:26,124 --> 00:19:27,334
What's wrong with men?
488
00:19:27,375 --> 00:19:29,419
Why didn't Rob propose?
489
00:19:29,461 --> 00:19:31,963
It's not that he didn't propose.
490
00:19:32,005 --> 00:19:33,923
- He proposed?!
- In the kitchen!
491
00:19:33,965 --> 00:19:37,052
Over takeout coffee like
it was an afterthought.
492
00:19:37,093 --> 00:19:38,345
He didn't even kneel!
493
00:19:38,386 --> 00:19:40,930
He just handed me
the mocha and said,
494
00:19:40,972 --> 00:19:43,516
"So, there's something I
wanna talk to you about."
495
00:19:43,558 --> 00:19:44,934
Oh...
496
00:19:44,976 --> 00:19:46,787
And then he went right
into talking about finances
497
00:19:46,811 --> 00:19:49,564
and house down
payments and timelines!
498
00:19:49,606 --> 00:19:51,417
I'm surprised he didn't
have a PowerPoint about
499
00:19:51,441 --> 00:19:53,443
why it was [deep voice]
"A good decision!"
500
00:19:53,485 --> 00:19:54,944
Well, isn't it a good decision?
501
00:19:54,986 --> 00:19:56,029
I mean, you two just
502
00:19:56,071 --> 00:19:57,489
work together.
503
00:19:57,530 --> 00:20:00,116
But there was nothing about
love in that proposal!
504
00:20:00,158 --> 00:20:02,410
No passion, no romance.
505
00:20:02,452 --> 00:20:05,413
And I just thought, "This is
gonna be the rest of my life."
506
00:20:05,455 --> 00:20:07,540
This is the most important
moment of our love story
507
00:20:07,582 --> 00:20:09,226
and all he gave me was
a mocha from the kiosk
508
00:20:09,250 --> 00:20:10,752
in the grocery store!
509
00:20:10,794 --> 00:20:12,295
He could have at
least grabbed roses!
510
00:20:12,337 --> 00:20:13,463
They're right there!
511
00:20:13,505 --> 00:20:15,090
Did you tell him how you feel?
512
00:20:15,131 --> 00:20:16,925
He doesn't think it's valid.
513
00:20:16,966 --> 00:20:18,677
Well, I can talk to him for you.
514
00:20:18,718 --> 00:20:22,180
Just... I think you have
a communication issue.
515
00:20:22,222 --> 00:20:24,724
There's no fixing this, Eloise.
516
00:20:24,766 --> 00:20:26,935
I'm a romantic!
517
00:20:28,436 --> 00:20:30,397
And he's an accountant.
518
00:20:30,438 --> 00:20:32,649
All this time, he
supposedly loved me
519
00:20:32,691 --> 00:20:35,276
and he was just putting
up with my nonsense.
520
00:20:35,318 --> 00:20:36,778
Did he say that?
521
00:20:36,820 --> 00:20:39,614
I don't wanna be
put up with, Eloise.
522
00:20:39,656 --> 00:20:41,449
I wanna be loved!
523
00:20:41,491 --> 00:20:43,159
Aw...
524
00:20:43,201 --> 00:20:44,828
I love you, Mimi.
525
00:20:44,869 --> 00:20:46,246
[whimpers]
526
00:20:46,287 --> 00:20:48,331
And I put up with your nonsense.
527
00:20:49,749 --> 00:20:52,794
But for what it's worth, I
do think Rob loves you too.
528
00:20:55,296 --> 00:20:57,757
Love is about putting
yourself out there,
529
00:20:57,799 --> 00:21:00,260
risking it all.
530
00:21:00,301 --> 00:21:02,929
Rob isn't willing
to risk anything!
531
00:21:02,971 --> 00:21:05,306
[muffled sobbing]
532
00:21:10,270 --> 00:21:11,771
[knock on the door]
533
00:21:11,813 --> 00:21:13,440
MIA: Huh?
534

be considered a villain.

Well, still, wouldn't
you say that, um,

00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,059
playing Willoughby gave
you an unusual insight
650
00:25:18,101 --> 00:25:19,602
into his character?
651
00:25:19,644 --> 00:25:22,605
Of course, but it's
not always useful.

Oh, really?
653
00:25:24,149 --> 00:25:27,986

towards the character
654
00:25:28,028 --> 00:25:31,197

711
00:27:48,918 --> 00:27:50,712
but I make a lot of those.
712
00:27:51,963 --> 00:27:53,548
Is that a defence mechanism?
713
00:27:53,590 --> 00:27:54,966
The hat or the jokes?
714
00:27:57,552 --> 00:28:00,347
Yeah, we are not
psychoanalyzing me,
715
00:28:00,388 --> 00:28:02,349
we are here to get you that job.
716
00:28:02,390 --> 00:28:03,558
I thought I nailed it!
717
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,435
Uh, professor? It
is only Thursday.
718
00:28:05,477 --> 00:28:07,103
We have a long
weekend ahead of us,
719
00:28:07,145 --> 00:28:09,356
and you still don't
know how to dance.
720
00:28:09,397 --> 00:28:10,982
Ah-ah-ah, don't make that face!
721
00:28:12,317 --> 00:28:14,152
You told my aunt that
you know all the dances.
722
00:28:14,194 --> 00:28:15,070
I didn't, you did!
723
00:28:15,111 --> 00:28:16,613
Let's not throw blame around.
724
00:28:16,654 --> 00:28:18,865
We have work to do.
725
00:28:18,907 --> 00:28:20,825
I have an idea...
I'll break my ankle.
726
00:28:20,867 --> 00:28:21,951
Oh, no, good idea.
727
00:28:21,993 --> 00:28:24,079
Break it while
learning to dance.
728
00:28:24,120 --> 00:28:27,040
Uh, this part of the hotel
doesn't look open to guests.
729
00:28:27,082 --> 00:28:28,875
Are you always such
a rule-follower?
730
00:28:28,917 --> 00:28:30,627
Huh, well, I guess
that's a great way
731
00:28:30,669 --> 00:28:32,754
to avoid being noticed.
732
00:28:32,796 --> 00:28:35,131
Now you're psychoanalyzing me?
733
00:28:35,173 --> 00:28:36,299
[door closes]
734
00:28:36,341 --> 00:28:37,693
- Where are we going?
- Somewhere private.
735
00:28:37,717 --> 00:28:39,719
You'd get embarrassed otherwise.
736
00:28:39,761 --> 00:28:41,054
That's surprisingly considerate.
737
00:28:41,096 --> 00:28:43,181
Plus, we can't risk
revealing your dark secret.
738
00:28:43,223 --> 00:28:44,224
That I can't dance?
739
00:28:44,265 --> 00:28:46,434
That you're no fun.
740
00:28:46,476 --> 00:28:48,812
Now, it's just a little
bit closed for renovations,
741
00:28:48,853 --> 00:28:51,064
but that means that
no one will wander in.
742
00:28:51,106 --> 00:28:53,900
Unless they're willing
to ignore all the signs.
743
00:28:53,942 --> 00:28:55,235
SAM: What can I say?
744
00:28:55,276 --> 00:28:57,070
I like exploring.
745
00:28:57,112 --> 00:29:00,198
I found this place yesterday,
and I thought to myself,
746
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,201
"There must be some
earthly use for it."
747
00:29:03,243 --> 00:29:04,744
It's lovely.
748
00:29:04,786 --> 00:29:06,913
And I'm sure any pretty,
young Jane Austen fan
749
00:29:06,955 --> 00:29:09,416
you brought here would
be swept off her feet.
750
00:29:12,794 --> 00:29:14,879
So, first things first.
751
00:29:18,425 --> 00:29:19,801
The After Dinner Maggot.
752
00:29:21,886 --> 00:29:23,096
[instrumental music playing]
753
00:29:23,138 --> 00:29:24,848
- Come on.
- Come, come, come, come, come!
754
00:29:26,307 --> 00:29:28,643
The men on this side,
women on that side.
755
00:29:28,685 --> 00:29:30,061
Although we never
have enough men,
756
00:29:30,103 --> 00:29:31,789
so you'll probably have
to learn both sides.
757
00:29:31,813 --> 00:29:33,064
Right, we split and return.
758
00:29:33,106 --> 00:29:34,941
May I? And, here we go!
759
00:29:34,983 --> 00:29:37,944
And... [counting steps quietly]
760
00:29:37,986 --> 00:29:39,946
'Round the other dancers.
761
00:29:39,988 --> 00:29:42,282
- What dancers?
- Uh, the imaginary dancers.
762
00:29:42,323 --> 00:29:45,535
That's it, and...
763
00:29:45,577 --> 00:29:47,328
And right, left,
right, and right.
764
00:29:47,370 --> 00:29:50,623
And left, right, left,
and left, and left.
765
00:29:50,665 --> 00:29:52,334
Left, uh...
766
00:29:52,375 --> 00:29:53,460
You're the left.
767
00:29:53,501 --> 00:29:55,170
Okay.
768
00:29:55,211 --> 00:29:57,189
Now, you allemande on the fourth
corner on the second count
769
00:29:57,213 --> 00:29:59,132
and it's the second
corner on the third.
770
00:29:59,174 --> 00:30:01,343
But remember that we have
to end up where we started
771
00:30:01,384 --> 00:30:03,178
- so that we can switch again.
- What?!
772
00:30:03,219 --> 00:30:06,473
[music continues]
773
00:30:06,514 --> 00:30:09,726
SAM: [with music] Dah... dah...
774
00:30:09,768 --> 00:30:15,690
[music continues]
775
00:30:15,732 --> 00:30:17,001
SAM: [with music] Dah, dah, dah!
776
00:30:17,025 --> 00:30:18,276
Good! Much better!
777
00:30:18,318 --> 00:30:20,070
Now, you made it
through the whole figure
778
00:30:20,111 --> 00:30:21,172
without making any mistakes.
779
00:30:21,196 --> 00:30:23,281
Now you may venture
a witty remark.
780
00:30:23,323 --> 00:30:25,992
I can't. My brain's
processing power
781
00:30:26,034 --> 00:30:28,661
- is tied up in my feet.
- Well, ignore your feet.
782
00:30:28,703 --> 00:30:29,847
You're looking at
your feet so much
783
00:30:29,871 --> 00:30:32,248
that I'm starting
to get jealous.
784
00:30:32,290 --> 00:30:33,541
Look at me.
785
00:30:33,583 --> 00:30:35,919
Remember, I like attention.
786
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:37,170
You're so annoying.
787
00:30:37,212 --> 00:30:39,214
You are so
788
00:30:39,255 --> 00:30:40,382
graceful.
789
00:30:40,423 --> 00:30:41,633
[music stops]
790
00:30:41,675 --> 00:30:43,426
See?
791
00:30:43,468 --> 00:30:45,804
It wasn't that bad, was it?
792
00:30:45,845 --> 00:30:48,181
Now, the next step is
to do it all again,
793
00:30:48,223 --> 00:30:49,766
but without counting
under your breath
794
00:30:49,808 --> 00:30:52,352
and without stomping around
like you're wearing moon boots.
795
00:30:54,354 --> 00:30:56,022
- [music starts again]
- Now, just relax.
796
00:30:56,064 --> 00:30:58,608
Shoulders back, eyes
up, and remember:
797
00:30:58,650 --> 00:31:00,360
You are graceful,
you are elegant,
798
00:31:00,402 --> 00:31:02,779
you are the most beautiful
girl in the ballroom!
799
00:31:02,821 --> 00:31:04,072
- You must...
- Stop.
800
00:31:04,114 --> 00:31:05,740
This isn't gonna work.
801
00:31:05,782 --> 00:31:08,535
It's fine here by myself, but
out there in front of everyone?
802
00:31:08,576 --> 00:31:10,203
I-I can't do this.
803
00:31:10,245 --> 00:31:12,414
- [music stops]
- Sorry if I went too fast,
804
00:31:12,455 --> 00:31:13,623
if I, um...
805
00:31:13,665 --> 00:31:14,850
No, it's not you. It's just...
806
00:31:14,874 --> 00:31:16,376
I don't dance!
807
00:31:16,418 --> 00:31:18,104
I don't like being the
centre of attention.
808
00:31:18,128 --> 00:31:19,879
But aren't you about
to give a speech
809
00:31:19,921 --> 00:31:21,881
in front of a room
full of people?
810
00:31:21,923 --> 00:31:24,050
- That's being an academic.
- That's what I'm used to.
811
00:31:24,092 --> 00:31:26,845
I'm used to being the girl
off to the side in the corner
812
00:31:26,886 --> 00:31:29,305
reading a book, not the
girl on the dance floor.
813
00:31:29,347 --> 00:31:30,724
That's Mia.
814
00:31:30,765 --> 00:31:31,725
My sister.
815
00:31:31,766 --> 00:31:33,643
The one in your hotel room.
816
00:31:33,685 --> 00:31:35,937
She's very comfortable being
the centre of attention
817
00:31:35,979 --> 00:31:37,522
and sometimes will
create situations
818
00:31:37,564 --> 00:31:38,898
where that can happen.
819
00:31:38,940 --> 00:31:40,775
Everyone has a role
in their family.
820
00:31:40,817 --> 00:31:43,236
I'm the smart one,
the practical one.
821
00:31:43,278 --> 00:31:47,574
Mia's pretty and reckless
and charming, and
822
00:31:47,615 --> 00:31:49,242
unlike me, a great dancer.
823
00:31:49,284 --> 00:31:51,619
What's the worst
that can happen?
824
00:31:51,661 --> 00:31:52,871
I'll mess up!
825
00:31:52,912 --> 00:31:54,789
I'll look like a fool!
826
00:31:54,831 --> 00:31:56,791
I'll look like a woman
pretending to be...
827
00:31:56,833 --> 00:31:57,917
Pretending to be what?
828
00:31:57,959 --> 00:32:00,337
A heroine in a romance
novel, alright?
829
00:32:00,378 --> 00:32:02,273
I'll look like an unmarried
woman in her thirties
830
00:32:02,297 --> 00:32:03,607
pretending to be
Elizabeth Bennet
831
00:32:03,631 --> 00:32:06,301
looking for Mr. Darcy.
832
00:32:06,343 --> 00:32:07,469
[sighs]
833
00:32:15,518 --> 00:32:19,105
I did pretend to be
Elizabeth Bennet once
834
00:32:19,147 --> 00:32:21,900
for a homecoming
dance when I was 15.
835
00:32:21,941 --> 00:32:23,360
I bought the dress from here.
836
00:32:23,401 --> 00:32:26,154
Well, not here, actually;
Another JALA conference.
837
00:32:26,196 --> 00:32:29,240
You went to a JALA
conference when you were 15?
838
00:32:29,282 --> 00:32:31,951
My parents liked to
encourage my interests.
839
00:32:31,993 --> 00:32:33,495
It's kind of a curse.
840
00:32:35,997 --> 00:32:38,124
But it was a train ride away
841
00:32:38,166 --> 00:32:40,460
and it was Pride and
Prejudice themed,
842
00:32:40,502 --> 00:32:41,628
and I...
843
00:32:41,670 --> 00:32:44,339
I just loved the book so much.
844
00:32:44,381 --> 00:32:47,217
It was the first book I
read that I really loved,
845
00:32:47,258 --> 00:32:50,720
and everyone there loved it too.
846
00:32:50,762 --> 00:32:52,931
And they treated me like I was
847
00:32:52,972 --> 00:32:54,766
sophisticated and interesting
848
00:32:54,808 --> 00:32:57,727
and like a real-life
Austen ingénue.
849
00:32:57,769 --> 00:33:00,647
[both chuckle]
850
00:33:00,689 --> 00:33:03,733
Anyway, I got carried away
and I bought this dress.
851
00:33:03,775 --> 00:33:06,528
And you wore it to homecoming?
852
00:33:06,569 --> 00:33:09,155
I thought that if Cody
Anderson could see me
853
00:33:09,197 --> 00:33:11,032
across the dance
floor, he'd realize
854
00:33:11,074 --> 00:33:13,076
how sophisticated and
interesting I was.
855
00:33:13,118 --> 00:33:14,994
Ah! And what happened?
856
00:33:15,036 --> 00:33:16,830
He saw me across the dance floor
857
00:33:16,871 --> 00:33:18,915
and, uh, he laughed.
858
00:33:18,957 --> 00:33:20,875
And then everyone saw
me and they all laughed,
859
00:33:20,917 --> 00:33:22,711
and then I ran and
hid in the library.
860
00:33:22,752 --> 00:33:25,171
Janitor let me in; Nice man.
861
00:33:25,213 --> 00:33:27,048
Oh.
862
00:33:27,090 --> 00:33:29,718
Well, Cody Anderson's an idiot.
863
00:33:31,511 --> 00:33:34,931
Ah, I bet there was
a boy at that dance
864
00:33:34,973 --> 00:33:38,184
who wondered where
you went all night.
865
00:33:38,226 --> 00:33:42,022
A huge nerd who
was into computers
866
00:33:42,063 --> 00:33:44,149
and classic literature.
867
00:33:45,025 --> 00:33:46,317
[chuckles]
868
00:33:46,359 --> 00:33:47,944
Hey, it's not as if I was
869
00:33:47,986 --> 00:33:49,779
tearing up the
dance floor at 15.
870
00:33:52,490 --> 00:33:54,200
Look, I know that
it's embarrassing
871
00:33:54,242 --> 00:33:57,203
to wear this outfit.
872
00:33:57,245 --> 00:33:58,889
You know what the most
embarrassing part is?
873
00:33:58,913 --> 00:34:01,374
No.
874
00:34:01,416 --> 00:34:02,876
I like it.
875
00:34:02,917 --> 00:34:04,836
[both laugh]
876
00:34:04,878 --> 00:34:06,421
Come on.
877
00:34:09,799 --> 00:34:13,595
SAM: For the first few years,
it was like a favour to my aunt.
878
00:34:13,636 --> 00:34:16,598
But the truth is that I don't
get to be the romantic hero
879
00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:18,183
in my normal life.
880
00:34:20,185 --> 00:34:23,730
No, my normal life is
dealing with start-up bros
881
00:34:23,772 --> 00:34:26,191
and enduring their jokes.
882
00:34:26,232 --> 00:34:28,026
But everywhere I
go as Mr. Darcy,
883
00:34:28,068 --> 00:34:29,819
I make women happy.
884
00:34:29,861 --> 00:34:32,072
- Must be fun.
- No, it is.
885
00:34:32,113 --> 00:34:34,032
Until my aunt points
out all the single women
886
00:34:34,074 --> 00:34:37,660
at the conference who clearly

Victorian lawn games.
1415
00:55:22,030 --> 00:55:23,114
Regency.
1416
00:55:23,156 --> 00:55:24,199
Regency lawn games.
1417
00:55:24,240 --> 00:55:25,950
Yeah, looks like
an absolute blast.
1418
00:55:25,992 --> 00:55:27,702
Who's your friend here?
1419
00:55:27,744 --> 00:55:29,204
That's none of your business!
1420
00:55:29,245 --> 00:55:30,330
Sam.
1421
00:55:30,372 --> 00:55:31,498
I'm Sam Lee.
1422
00:55:31,539 --> 00:55:34,167
I wasn't actually
speaking to you
1423
00:55:34,209 --> 00:55:35,502
sir.
1424
00:55:35,543 --> 00:55:37,337
What, are you on a
date with this, uh,
1425
00:55:37,379 --> 00:55:38,838
romance novel
cover model reject?
1426
00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:40,006
So what if I am?
1427
00:55:40,048 --> 00:55:41,883
Rob, we broke up.
1428
00:55:41,925 --> 00:55:44,344
Less than two days ago
I asked you to marry me.
1429
00:55:44,386 --> 00:55:45,488
Actually, you should know this.
1430
00:55:45,512 --> 00:55:47,222
I asked her to marry
me two days ago.
1431
00:55:47,263 --> 00:55:49,265
Uh, I'm just here
for the Lawn Games.
1432
00:55:49,307 --> 00:55:50,642
MIA: Youdumped me!
1433
00:55:50,684 --> 00:55:52,435
ROB: Because I asked
you to marry me.
1434
00:55:52,477 --> 00:55:53,871
You said the question
was "depressing."
1435
00:55:53,895 --> 00:55:55,146
Not because of you, Rob!
1436
00:55:55,188 --> 00:55:56,624
Because of the way
that you asked it!
1437
00:55:56,648 --> 00:55:57,857
ROB: Well, what did you want?
1438
00:55:57,899 --> 00:56:00,026
You want me to make
a fool out of myself
1439
00:56:00,068 --> 00:56:02,237
in front of everybody to
prove how much I love you?
1440
00:56:02,278 --> 00:56:03,947
MIA: It would be nice.
1441
00:56:03,988 --> 00:56:06,533
Rob, maybe we can go back to my
hotel room to talk about this.
1442
00:56:06,574 --> 00:56:08,552
ROB: No, Eloise, I don't
need any more of your help!
1443
00:56:08,576 --> 00:56:10,256
I came because you said
Mia was devastated,
1444
00:56:10,286 --> 00:56:11,430
and she doesn't look
very devastated.
1445
00:56:11,454 --> 00:56:12,997
You told him what?
1446
00:56:13,039 --> 00:56:15,125
Well, I just wanted to
help you two communicate.
1447
00:56:15,166 --> 00:56:17,544
Well, we're communicating
now, Eloise, are you happy?
1448
00:56:17,585 --> 00:56:20,630
And for the record,
Rob, I was devastated.
1449
00:56:20,672 --> 00:56:24,551
I completely,
completely love you!
1450
00:56:24,592 --> 00:56:26,678
But you don't like me,
1451
00:56:26,720 --> 00:56:28,596
because something that
is as important to me
1452
00:56:28,638 --> 00:56:34,477
as a romantic wedding proposal
is just like a big joke to you.
1453
00:56:34,519 --> 00:56:36,813
Look, I-I don't want it
to end this way, alright?
1454
00:56:36,855 --> 00:56:39,649
I don't want it to end
because of some stu...
1455
00:56:39,691 --> 00:56:41,609
[sighs] What can I do, alright?
1456
00:56:41,651 --> 00:56:43,570
What's it gonna take?
1457
00:56:45,613 --> 00:56:47,574
A lot more than this.
1458
00:56:51,077 --> 00:56:53,079
Fine.
1459
00:56:53,121 --> 00:56:55,081
I'm... I'm leaving.
1460
00:56:55,123 --> 00:56:57,208
And I'm taking these
1461
00:56:57,250 --> 00:56:58,250
perfectly good flowers.
1462
00:57:01,046 --> 00:57:02,839
- Mia?
- Eloise.
1463
00:57:02,881 --> 00:57:05,967
I appreciate the thought but
this has nothing to do with you.
1464
00:57:07,218 --> 00:57:08,595
Uh...
1465
00:57:08,636 --> 00:57:10,889
Well, I think it's high
time for pall-mall.
1466
00:57:10,930 --> 00:57:12,390
I'll get the clubs!
1467
00:57:12,432 --> 00:57:13,933
I'll help.
1468
00:57:17,228 --> 00:57:19,230
[sighs]
1469
00:57:19,272 --> 00:57:20,774
Eloise, I'm sorry.
1470
00:57:20,815 --> 00:57:23,234
Look, I honestly only
wanted to cheer her up.
1471
00:57:23,276 --> 00:57:25,570
I had no idea her
ex would be here.
1472
00:57:25,612 --> 00:57:27,423
And I certainly didn't think
that he would interpret...
1473
00:57:27,447 --> 00:57:29,407
There's no need to apologize.
1474
00:57:29,449 --> 00:57:31,493
It has nothing to do with me.
1475
00:57:31,534 --> 00:57:32,410
I'm sure your sister
didn't mean...
1476
00:57:32,452 --> 00:57:33,912
My sister was right.
1477
00:57:33,953 --> 00:57:36,289
I've been sticking my nose
in where it's not wanted.
1478
00:57:36,331 --> 00:57:38,684
And I have enough to worry about
this weekend with the keynote
1479
00:57:38,708 --> 00:57:40,960
and everything else.
1480
00:57:41,002 --> 00:57:42,170
Let's exert ourselves!
1481
00:57:42,212 --> 00:57:43,588
Let's have fun!
1482
00:57:54,474 --> 00:57:56,226
JENNY: Professor Cavendish!
1483
00:57:56,267 --> 00:57:57,686
ELOISE: Jenny?
1484
00:57:57,727 --> 00:58:00,355
- I need your help!
- This show is about to be ruined.
1485
00:58:00,397 --> 00:58:03,316
- Ruined?
- Two of our actors dropped out.
1486
00:58:03,358 --> 00:58:04,502
The play is tomorrow, right?
1487
00:58:04,526 --> 00:58:06,695
- It's tonight!
- Oh.
1488
00:58:06,736 --> 00:58:08,905
We've got four hours.
1489
00:58:08,947 --> 00:58:12,325
I just need two actors to
play Darcy and Elizabeth,
1490
00:58:12,367 --> 00:58:13,785
and I was thinking, maybe,
1491
00:58:13,827 --> 00:58:16,246
since your friend already
has the costume...
1492
00:58:16,287 --> 00:58:17,706
I'd be happy to help.
1493
00:58:17,747 --> 00:58:20,291
In fact, I think I can
get you some tech crew.
1494
00:58:20,333 --> 00:58:22,293
And then, for Elizabeth,
1495
00:58:22,335 --> 00:58:24,462
I was thinking
maybe someone who's
1496
00:58:24,504 --> 00:58:26,506
a really good public speaker.
1497
00:58:26,548 --> 00:58:27,841
Someone who knows the novels
1498
00:58:27,882 --> 00:58:31,177
and kind of sparkles with
vivacity and charisma.
1499
00:58:31,219 --> 00:58:33,364
- Well, I'm not sure if I...
- I don't know if I could, um...
1500
00:58:33,388 --> 00:58:34,848
I'll do it!
1501
00:58:34,889 --> 00:58:36,701
Mia Cavendish, former
star of every high school
1502
00:58:36,725 --> 00:58:38,184
and one and a half
college musicals.
1503
00:58:38,226 --> 00:58:41,354
Uh, you are
1504
00:58:41,396 --> 00:58:43,440
the right size for the costume.
1505
00:58:43,481 --> 00:58:44,524
Ha, you are cast!
1506
00:58:44,566 --> 00:58:46,276
- Oh!
- You are all cast.
1507
00:58:46,317 --> 00:58:48,695
Except you, Professor Cavendish.
1508
00:58:48,737 --> 00:58:50,697
Oh, well, I can help
out with the set.
1509
00:58:50,739 --> 00:58:52,499
That's where I really
shine in the theatre...
1510
00:58:52,532 --> 00:58:53,700
Off-stage.
1511
00:58:53,742 --> 00:58:56,786
This'll be just
like high school!
1512
00:58:56,828 --> 00:58:59,497
And then come back
around here...
1513
00:58:59,539 --> 00:59:01,499
And... bow!
1514
00:59:01,541 --> 00:59:02,834
Lift up the quill.
1515
00:59:02,876 --> 00:59:06,129
Everyone, hands up
towards the quill.
1516
00:59:06,171 --> 00:59:07,339
KELSEY: Hey.
1517
00:59:09,132 --> 00:59:10,216
You are
1518
00:59:10,258 --> 00:59:11,343
terrible at sewing.
1519
00:59:11,384 --> 00:59:12,594
I'm so glad you're here.
1520
00:59:12,635 --> 00:59:14,262
I'm never gonna
get through this.
1521
00:59:14,304 --> 00:59:15,304
Give it...
1522
00:59:16,639 --> 00:59:18,725
Sam texted me for
help with a play.
1523
00:59:18,767 --> 00:59:20,226
Just like in high school.
1524
00:59:20,268 --> 00:59:22,520
ELOISE: Guess I'll paint.
1525
00:59:22,562 --> 00:59:24,230
KELSEY: Who's that
that Sam's talking to?
1526
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:26,399
My sister.
1527
00:59:26,441 --> 00:59:28,109
Oh...
1528
00:59:28,151 --> 00:59:30,070
She's comfortable
in the spotlight
1529
00:59:30,111 --> 00:59:31,071
like Sam.
1530
00:59:31,112 --> 00:59:33,114
[laughs]
1531
00:59:33,156 --> 00:59:34,574
Are you kidding?
1532
00:59:34,616 --> 00:59:37,243
Sam's the shyest
man I've ever known.
1533
00:59:37,285 --> 00:59:40,205
When we first met, he could
hardly speak in front of a girl.
1534
00:59:40,246 --> 00:59:41,581
You're kidding.
1535
00:59:41,623 --> 00:59:44,250
He's been bowing and
kissing hands all weekend.
1536
00:59:44,292 --> 00:59:45,877
No, no, no, that's the thing...
1537
00:59:45,919 --> 00:59:48,254
It's 'cause he's
wearing a costume.
1538
00:59:48,296 --> 00:59:49,589
Girl, watch your brush!
1539
00:59:49,631 --> 00:59:51,049
Mm, sorry.
1540
00:59:51,091 --> 00:59:53,343
It started in high
school when he stepped in
1541
00:59:53,385 --> 00:59:55,345
for Benedict in that Much Ado.
1542
00:59:55,387 --> 00:59:57,889
Sam was a weird nerd.
1543
00:59:57,931 --> 00:59:59,450
Like, he liked computers
better than people.
1544
00:59:59,474 --> 01:00:02,018
But once you gave him a script
1545
01:00:02,060 --> 01:00:03,770
and put a little
outfit on him...?
1546
01:00:03,812 --> 01:00:05,230
Bam! [Snaps finger]
1547
01:00:05,271 --> 01:00:06,398
He was the leading man.
1548
01:00:07,732 --> 01:00:09,192
So it's all a front?
1549
01:00:09,234 --> 01:00:10,652
No.
1550
01:00:10,694 --> 01:00:13,113
Some people just do
better with a script.
1551
01:00:13,154 --> 01:00:15,281
That's why he dated
so many drama queens.
1552
01:00:17,075 --> 01:00:18,076
Men like drama.
1553
01:00:18,118 --> 01:00:19,661
Hmph! I guess.
1554
01:00:21,496 --> 01:00:24,040
I come bearing pizza!
1555
01:00:24,082 --> 01:00:25,166
CROWD: Yay!
1556
01:00:28,253 --> 01:00:29,921
VICTORIA: You look
pensive, Cavendish.
1557
01:00:29,963 --> 01:00:32,108
Why aren't you sitting with
your young people over there?
1558
01:00:32,132 --> 01:00:34,509
ELOISE: I just wanted some
space to think about tomorrow.
1559
01:00:34,551 --> 01:00:36,928
Of course, my presentation is
all prepared and rehearsed,
1560
01:00:36,970 --> 01:00:39,264
but still... I like to
go above and beyond.
1561
01:00:39,305 --> 01:00:41,808
Oh, women always have to
to get what they want.
1562
01:00:43,351 --> 01:00:45,311
That's what I tell my students.
1563
01:00:45,353 --> 01:00:48,189
Well, I hope it's easier
for them than it was for me.
1564
01:00:48,231 --> 01:00:51,109
[sighs] I had to make a
lot of difficult choices.
1565
01:00:51,151 --> 01:00:54,154
There are many things I might
have wanted in an ideal world
1566
01:00:54,195 --> 01:00:56,364
that just weren't compatible
with an academic career
1567
01:00:56,406 --> 01:00:58,241
at the time.
1568
01:00:58,283 --> 01:00:59,492
I'm sorry.
1569
01:00:59,534 --> 01:01:02,370
Oh, no, I like to look forward.
1570
01:01:02,412 --> 01:01:04,748
And it's my dearest hope for
you, Professor Cavendish,
1571
01:01:04,789 --> 01:01:07,625
in whom I see so
very much of myself,
1572
01:01:07,667 --> 01:01:09,544
that you get every single
thing that you want.
1573
01:01:09,586 --> 01:01:11,796
The career, the acclaim.
1574
01:01:11,838 --> 01:01:13,548
Perhaps some fun on the weekends
1575
01:01:13,590 --> 01:01:15,300
[chuckles] And a partner.
1576
01:01:15,342 --> 01:01:16,509
Why not?
1577
01:01:16,551 --> 01:01:18,094
That is, if you
care to have one.
1578
01:01:18,136 --> 01:01:19,179
I care to.
1579
01:01:19,220 --> 01:01:21,056
Uh, he just has to
be the right one.
1580
01:01:21,097 --> 01:01:22,223
Mm-hm!
1581
01:01:22,265 --> 01:01:23,683
Isn't that the truth.
1582
01:01:23,725 --> 01:01:26,394
A world full of
Wickhams and Collinses.
1583
01:01:26,436 --> 01:01:28,063
If you stumble upon a Darcy,
1584
01:01:28,104 --> 01:01:29,522
grab him.
1585
01:01:29,564 --> 01:01:31,024
It's what Jane
would have wanted.
1586
01:01:31,066 --> 01:01:33,193
[chuckles]

01:17:45,874 --> 01:17:47,375
I'm just so happy for you.
1939
01:17:47,417 --> 01:17:49,544
Mmm! I'm happy for me too!
1940
01:17:49,586 --> 01:17:51,629
We're getting married! [Giggles]
1941
01:17:51,671 --> 01:17:53,757
[tapping on glass]
1942
01:17:56,426 --> 01:17:59,888
And now we actually will hear
from our keynote speaker,
1943
01:17:59,929 --> 01:18:01,681
Dr. Eloise Cavendish,
1944
01:18:01,723 --> 01:18:03,516
who will commence the dancing.
1945
01:18:03,558 --> 01:18:06,936
[applause]
1946
01:18:09,356 --> 01:18:10,732
Thank you. I, um...
1947
01:18:12,609 --> 01:18:13,777
Sorry.
1948
01:18:13,818 --> 01:18:15,904
I'm so sorry, it's just
1949
01:18:15,945 --> 01:18:17,989
my sister just got engaged.
1950
01:18:18,031 --> 01:18:20,241
[applause]
1951
01:18:22,744 --> 01:18:24,746
But I do want to say one thing
1952
01:18:24,788 --> 01:18:26,998
before we officially
begin the evening.
1953
01:18:32,921 --> 01:18:35,757
I have loved these novels
1954
01:18:35,799 --> 01:18:38,927
and these characters
since I was 13.
1955
01:18:38,968 --> 01:18:41,805
Back when Pride and Prejudice
was the most romantic book
1956
01:18:41,846 --> 01:18:44,849
I had ever read.
1957
01:18:44,891 --> 01:18:47,310
Since then, I have learned
so much more about Austen,
1958
01:18:47,352 --> 01:18:50,021
her world and the
compromises she had to make.
1959
01:18:51,815 --> 01:18:55,443
And it's still the most
romantic book I have ever read.
1960
01:18:56,778 --> 01:18:58,405
And that scares me.
1961
01:19:00,281 --> 01:19:01,449
I'm scared of emotion.
1962
01:19:02,992 --> 01:19:05,078
Scared of being swept away.
1963
01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:07,205
And I'm even scared of dancing.
1964
01:19:07,247 --> 01:19:09,457
Scared of looking like a fool,
1965
01:19:09,499 --> 01:19:11,918
and that's what can happen
on the dance floor, right?
1966
01:19:11,960 --> 01:19:14,963
Missing a step and making
a fool of yourself.
1967
01:19:15,005 --> 01:19:18,008
But if there's one thing
I learned this weekend,
1968
01:19:18,049 --> 01:19:20,260
one thing I've learned
from reading and re-reading
1969
01:19:20,301 --> 01:19:24,472
these books that
we all love so much
1970
01:19:24,514 --> 01:19:28,309
it's that fools and heroines
are not separate categories.
1971
01:19:30,145 --> 01:19:33,231
You have to risk being one
in order to become the other.
1972
01:19:33,273 --> 01:19:35,275
So, as we proceed
to the dance floor,
1973
01:19:35,316 --> 01:19:38,945
there's someone here with
a place on my dance card.
1974
01:19:40,864 --> 01:19:42,282
If he wants it.
1975
01:19:44,909 --> 01:19:47,162
[scattered applause]
1976
01:19:49,748 --> 01:19:52,167
[hopeful music]
1977
01:19:53,793 --> 01:19:54,878
Eloise...
1978
01:19:54,919 --> 01:19:57,088
CRISPIN: Professor Cavendish!
1979
01:19:57,130 --> 01:20:00,800
I understand congratulations
are in order.
1980
01:20:00,842 --> 01:20:02,802
Victoria told me
about Princeton.
1981
01:20:02,844 --> 01:20:04,095
Couldn't be more deserved.
1982
01:20:04,137 --> 01:20:05,263
That's very kind of you.
1983
01:20:05,305 --> 01:20:07,307
I heard you were up
for the same job.
1984
01:20:07,349 --> 01:20:10,060
- Me? [Scoffs]
- Whatever gave you that idea?
1985
01:20:10,101 --> 01:20:12,312
I'm wildly under-qualified.
1986
01:20:12,354 --> 01:20:14,773
But my aunt told me that you
were interviewing with her
1987
01:20:14,814 --> 01:20:16,066
at the conference.
1988
01:20:16,107 --> 01:20:18,985
I can't imagine
why she'd say that.
1989
01:20:19,027 --> 01:20:21,363
Unless she didn't want you
to know the real reason
1990
01:20:21,404 --> 01:20:23,615
we're spending so
much time together.
1991
01:20:23,656 --> 01:20:24,741
The real reason?
1992
01:20:24,783 --> 01:20:26,993
I'm retiring, Mr. Lee.
1993
01:20:27,035 --> 01:20:29,287
It's high time I think
about more important things
1994
01:20:29,329 --> 01:20:31,539
than career.
1995
01:20:31,581 --> 01:20:33,291
More important things like...
1996
01:20:33,333 --> 01:20:35,126
Aunt Victoria?
1997
01:20:35,168 --> 01:20:37,545
We were post-doctorate
sweethearts.
1998
01:20:37,587 --> 01:20:39,464
Can you believe it?
1999
01:20:39,506 --> 01:20:41,841
But I'd already been
bitten by the acting bug,
2000
01:20:41,883 --> 01:20:44,552
so I left academia, and her.
2001
01:20:46,554 --> 01:20:47,931
I was an idiot.
2002
01:20:49,057 --> 01:20:50,642
Luckily, she's very forgiving.
2003
01:20:52,477 --> 01:20:53,770
[clears throat]
2004
01:20:53,812 --> 01:20:54,938
This weekend
2005
01:20:56,898 --> 01:20:58,233
miracles indeed.
2006
01:21:00,110 --> 01:21:01,569
Well!
2007
01:21:01,611 --> 01:21:04,197
I suppose you young people are
done listening to me snivel.
2008
01:21:04,239 --> 01:21:06,408
Go, dance!
2009
01:21:06,449 --> 01:21:07,575
Excuse me.
2010
01:21:07,617 --> 01:21:09,869
Victoria...
2011
01:21:09,911 --> 01:21:12,539
Victoria, might I reserve
your first Maggot?
2012
01:21:12,580 --> 01:21:13,581
VICTORIA: Of course!
2013
01:21:14,791 --> 01:21:16,626
Huh.
2014
01:21:16,668 --> 01:21:19,129
He didn't even apply.
2015
01:21:19,170 --> 01:21:21,190
I've just spent the last
few days trying to separate
2016
01:21:21,214 --> 01:21:24,592
my aunt from her one true love.
2017
01:21:24,634 --> 01:21:27,012
I think we've all learned
a few lessons this weekend,
2018
01:21:27,053 --> 01:21:28,722
me especially.
2019
01:21:28,763 --> 01:21:30,390
Hm.
2020
01:21:30,432 --> 01:21:31,432
So
2021
01:21:32,392 --> 01:21:33,601
Are you ready?
2022
01:21:33,643 --> 01:21:35,520
Ready for what?

Really, you don't have to...
2027

Sam, if you try to weasel
out of this dance again,
2028
01:21:44,612 --> 01:21:45,905
I'm going to lose my temper,
2029
01:21:45,947 --> 01:21:47,633
and I wouldn't want to
give you that satisfaction
2030

a second time.
2031
01:21:49,451 --> 01:21:51,327
Was that a witty remark?
2032
01:21:53,163 --> 01:21:55,582
While dancing, yes.
2033
01:21:55,623 --> 01:21:57,959
[music continues playing]
2034
01:22:00,045 --> 01:22:02,088

Oh, that was all Rob.

was a little push.

- When?
- Next fall.

SAM: By the way, I
didn't do it for Rob.
2042

I didn't do it for Mia either.
2043

Why, then?
2044
01:22:30,283 --> 01:22:33,453
Turns out that some
women can't be charmed.
2045
01:22:33,495 --> 01:22:38,166
Some women can only be won by
doing something substantive.
2046

Oh, I was charmed.
2047
