Mr Dunwoody.

These papers are in order,
I have checked.

- Thank you, Mrs Frazer.
- Yes, Mrs Frazer.

Drummond, send this telegraph, will you?

Yes, ma'am.

And see that these
are posted right away.

- I want the delivery this afternoon.
- Right, Mrs Frazer.

Just a moment, there's one more.

Mr Dunwoody, you are aware the
Saratoga is paying off this afternoon?

- Oh, yes, Mrs Frazer.
- You've the money?

- Yes, Mrs Frazer.
- Have you checked it?

- Not yet, Mrs Frazer.
- Well, please do so.

Thank you, ma'am.

Right, I should be back within the hour.

Oh, do remember
the Good Hope is completing coaling.

I want her out on this afternoon's tide.

Yes, Mrs Frazer. Everything is arranged.

She was the most delicious little
dolly mop you've ever saw

and I just had two penny worth
on the ponies and come up 20 to 1.

So, I had the cash for a nice,
little night I'll tell ya.

- I got it all worked out beautifully.

- Good morning, all.

Oh, I'm afraid Mrs Frazer's just left,
Mr Spendilow.

- That's all right. I'll wait.
- Oh.

Mrs Frazer's away
on a matter of business, sir.

If you leave your card, Mr Spendilow,
I'll see she's advised of your visit.

Oh, there's no need
for formalities with me.

I only just called
to present my account.

There should be more than enough there
to cover it ample.

This is not due for another three weeks,
Mr Spendilow.

I can give you discounts,
very favourable terms.

It is not the practice of this office
to discount tradesmen's bills.

Part payment now,
little bit on account?

No.

Meet me halfway.
Couple of sovereigns to tide me over.

If you come back in three weeks,

your account will be paid in full,
Mr Spendilow.

Yeah, incidentally, I might mention
that your last consignment

of oakum left a lot to be desired.

I inspect every shred.

I'm warranted by no less a personage
than her most gracious Majesty herself.

Good morning. Mr Dunwoody about?

It was our impression that
a certain amount of inferior material

had subsequently been mixed
with the original.

Yes, Drummond, what is it?

Captain Harvey's arrived,
Mr Dunwoody.

He's waiting the pleasure
of a few minutes' conversation, sir.

Ah, yes, I shall be
with him immediately.

- This way, if you please, Mr Spendilow.
- No, I'll wait for Miss Elizabeth.

As you wish, but not in here.
In the common office, if you please.

Oh, yes. Thank you.

Mr Spendilow, take a seat there.
Won't keep you a moment.

My apologies for keeping you waiting,
Mr Harvey.

I'm simply overwhelmed with work.

- Hard task master, is she?
- Oh, it's bedlam, Mr Harvey, bedlam.

You know what she needs?
She needs a tight rein.

Oh, she'd never relinquish,
never for a minute.

Maybe. I won't keep you a moment,
Mr Dunwoody.

I've just dropped in to pick up
the pay for the Saratoga.

Ah, yes, well, if you would follow me.

Now then.

- What's wrong?
- Two ã5 notes are missing.

- Are you sure?
- Of course I'm sure.

I have the list from the bank.

Ah, who was in the office?

Oh, Mrs Frazer
and several clerks in and out.

Mr Spendilow.

Then we must organise
a personal search.

Oh, not Mr Spendilow?

Everybody.

I'm afraid I can't wait
any longer, old chap.

Oh, right, Mr Spendilow.

- Wonder if you'd oblige us, sir?
- What for?

There's a slight contretemps
in the office.

There's some money missing.
One of the clerks we think.

Perhaps you'd oblige us by calling
a constable on the way out.

Oh, certainly. You can rely upon me.
Discretion's my watch word.

And I'm sure you won't object.
It's merely a formality.

Hey, what do you think you're doing?
Stop that!

Here, those are mine.

That's my mark.

Arrested. Uncle Percy Spendilow.

As a common thief, no less.
Oh, that idiot Harvey.

He takes far too much
responsibility upon himself.

Elizabeth, you're allowing your tongue
to run away with you as usual.

- Now tell us exactly what's happened?
- I've told you.

So far all you've told us
is that Uncle Percy

is to be arraigned before a magistrate
and charged with a felony.

Ah, well, I heard it
on very good authority

that he was caught red handed,
stealing from Frazer's office.

Caught with his fingers
in the till, I'll be bound.

Well, in a manner of speaking.

Well, remember how we used
to steal sugar.

You mean you used to steal sugar
and Uncle Percy took the blame.

Oh, do stop calling him "Uncle."

Mr Spendilow is not
and never was related.

He used to help out in the shop
when Father was alive.

We always called him "Uncle."

He used to slip biscuits into me pocket
just before I went to school.

Stolen biscuits
and I used to get the blame.

I should point out, Sarah,
that when Father died,

Uncle Percy Spendilow went
into business on his own.

He opened a marine shop of sorts.

Lord, the rubbish that
that man bought and sold,

and he'd no head for business,
none whatsoever.

Now, tell us exactly the nature
of the charge.

Stealing ã10 from our petty cash.

- Oh, and on what evidence?
- The money was found in his pocket.

- Was it identified?
- Yes.

Mr Dunwoody marked the note
with his private mark.

I would describe that evidence
as quite conclusive.

It looks bad.

Yes, well, that's where
you might help, Robert.

- Me?
- Well, you could use your influence

as a Member of Parliament.

Do you mean to thwart
the course of justice?

Is that what you're suggesting?

Well, you have made speeches enough
on the subject of penal reform.

Now is your opportunity to prove that
you mean what you say.

Hmm, think of yourself
as a champion of the oppressed.

I have never supported any man
or woman who has been legally

and, no doubt, properly condemned
for his crime.

At the moment,
the prisons are nothing more

than a training ground for criminals.

I am toward the uniform application
of isolation.

The rule of silence.

With the crank and the treadmill
as a condign punishment

for those who break the rules.

- I quite agree.
- Do save your speeches for the hustings.

Now tell us precisely when is he
to appear before the magistrate.

- After luncheon tomorrow.
- Oh, well.

- Might still be time.
- To do what?

Subvert the hands of justice.

And I'd like to put your name
forward for a seat on the board.

The post carries with it
a small honourarium.

Plus a number of preferential shares.

And what would be expected from me
in return for this singular honour?

Well, we appreciate
that magistrates are busy people.

Your name would be recompense enough.

Uh, waiter, I'll take cheese and coffee.

Mr Onedin.

I have listened with as much patience
as I can muster

to an overlong dissertation
upon your family fortunes,

and although appreciative
of your proposal,

I am mindful that time is passing.

I have rather a heavy list of cases
before me this afternoon.

I would be obliged
if you'd come to the point.

Oh, I thought I had.

Mr Onedin,
your reputation is well known.

You will therefore forgive me
for questioning your motives

in extending so lucrative an inducement.

Under what circumstances
would I be expected

to fulfil my obligations to your board?

Oh, well, we might call upon
your knowledge of the law

from time to time, that is all.

Eh, thank you, no,
I take neither tobacco nor alcohol.

But indulge yourself if you so wish.

Well, as a matter of fact,

um, a little matter has arisen upon
which I would appreciate your advice.

An acquaintance of ours,
a man in a small way of business

finds himself in the
unfortunate position

of being accused quite wrongly

- of theft.
- Of what?

- Money.
- A felony? Once charged, he must plead.

Aye, well, that is the problem.

The evidence appears
to point to his guilt.

That's no problem, Mr Onedin.

If it is proved to be the case,
the man will be sent to prison.

He is not a young man.

Hmm. Eh, when does he appear?

This afternoon.

Before me.

I think you have said enough, Mr Onedin.

I shall forgo both coffee
and your offer of an appointment.

I've no knowledge of your involvement
in all this...

- And I have no wish to know.

But let me remind you, sir,
that the penalties

for attempting to influence one
of her Majesty's justices are severe.

Severe indeed, sir.

I bid you good day.

Now there's stretch of coast
round about here a ways.

Sand, swamps, scrub and a bit of timber.

Now nasty seas coming in, heavy swell,
shallow water in all anchorages, but...

This is the bay I told you about.

Now it's narrow at the neck
and it opens up just like a bottle.

Now once inside, the ship could be
as snug as a bug in a rug.

And how far off is the river?

Well, it makes a bend
about here, you see.

It comes no near than about 20 miles.

I suppose you could cut a canal.

The land in between is scrub
with a few salt flats, sir.

- Salt?
- Aye.

I thought you'd be interested in that,
so we brung a cask or two of samples.

Now then. This is the in letting detail.
I drew it up myself.

I took a jolly boat
and I sounded every foot of it.

Now, to see what,
you've got very deep water,

and inside five or six fathoms and
a fair stretch of beach to the north.

There is no one there,
except a few bow and arrow savages.

And there's enough timber
to build a mile of jetties.

We'll do it, eh.

We'll build a port
where there was no port before.

We'll make the whole
of that coast ours, eh.

We'll call it...

We'll call it Port Baines, eh.

Port Baines...

Hell, I'll drink to that
by God, sir. Port Baines.

Now.

Oh, what's up with you?

- Uncle Percy.
- Oh.

What was the outcome?

Guilty.

He was sentenced to 6 months.

On your feet, 341.

Supper.

The first three days you're on bread
and water and your sleep's hard.

Too much flesh. Hands like a lady.
We'll soon tone you up, my lad.

You can start with 1000 turns of a crank
before you get your head down.

I told you, 341,

1000 turns of a crank
before you get your head down.

If I catches you doing nothing again,
it'll be 2000.

One...

Two...

Three...

I don't know.

You know, she's late again.

Elizabeth really has
transformed this room.

I mean it's my duty as principal speaker
to be there on time.

I'd swear Elizabeth
dilly dallies deliberately.

We lack a decent size
withdrawing room.

All the important people will be there,
my Lord Mayor, my Lord Darby.

The most influential members
of the Chamber of Commerce.

We need a new address.

You what!

It's time we moved to a new house.

A new house?

What's wrong with the one we've got?

Oh, how can I be expected
to entertain persons of quality

in such cramped quarters?

My dear, you make an admirable hostess.

Everybody comments on it.

The kitchen's far too small.
I can't keep a decent cook.

Now compare our circumstances
to the style in which Elizabeth lives.

Elizabeth's got money to burn,
I haven't.

I did have in mind
the Croxteth Road area.

The Croxteth Road?

Have you taken leave of your senses?

Do you realise, I mean, it's full
of ship owners and cotton brokers?

Exactly, and a Member of Parliament
is required to have a good address.

I can't afford it.

Oh, Robert.

If James can use company money
in order to buy a port,

then you can have your share
to buy a new house.

- That's all very well.
- No, exactly. You're a company director.

- I know I'm a company director...
- So tax James with it

and if there is any profit,
then you should have your share.

I'm ready. Have I kept you waiting?

Good grief, girl.

We're only going to a dinner,
not a rout.

Oh, you think it too extravagant?
Oh, well, perhaps I should change.

No, no, it'll do very well.
Very well.

Come on, we haven't got all night.

Oh.

- Hello, Amy.
- Hello, Percy.

Are they treating you well?

Oh, it's hard

I'll not deny, but...

They're fair, they're very fair.

- Are you getting enough to eat?
- Oh yes, the food's regular.

And wholesome.

Three meals a day.

And wholesome.

I've lost a bit of weight.
You'll not know me when I come out.

Percy, your hands!

Yes, I know.

I'm not used to the
manual labour yet, but...

Oh, I'll harden up, I promise you.

- Is there anything I can bring you?
- No, no, no, nothing.

Nothing at all. It's not allowed.

Oh, Percy,
how could you bring us to this?

I'm innocent, Amy.

Can't hold me head up in public

and the landlord's threatening eviction.
I don't know what to do, Percy.

It'll be the poorhouse. I know it will.

Speak to Miss Elizabeth.

- Who?
- Mrs Frazer.

She'll stand by you.

Oh, no, I wouldn't dare.
She's too high and mighty.

Anyway, who was it that put you in here?
Them Frazers.

No, no, no, the Onedins has always been
very, very good to me.

Go and see her, Amy.

Miss Elizabeth will help you,
you'll see.

I don't know what's to become of me
and the children.

We shall starve.
We shall all starve.

Time's up, 341.

- Speak to Miss Elizabeth.
- Silence.

Yes, Mr Cringle.

Good morning, Robert.
What brings you here so early?

I'm here to ascertain the present state
of our company's finances.

And I'm not leaving here untill have
a full and satisfactory explanation.

Ah, help yourself.
You'll find them all over there.

Thank you.

Why? Do you think I've had my fingers
in the till like Uncle Percy?

That's uncalled for.

Uncle Percy's innocent,
as you perfectly well know.

Uncle Percy is and always has been
a feckless ne'er-do-well.

Why this sudden interest
in our finances?

Sarah and I have decided upon
a change of address.

- Yup!

It's therefore my intention to invest
in a choice property

in a better class residential area.

Oh, Robert, you can buy a dozen houses
if you've a mind to.

Just don't bother me
with your petty little problems.

Petty problems? And where'd you think
the money's gonna to come from, eh?

James, what's the matter?

It's Charlotte.

She's got diphtheria.

Oh, I'm sorry.

She's sleeping now.

The doctor thinks
she might have a chance.

He put the tube in her throat.

She was choking.
It was dreadful, dreadful.

How long has this been?

Four days, she was taken poorly.

- Four days?
- I didn't know what it was at first.

She seemed a bit pale and rather cranky.

I took her temperature.
It was up, but not alarmingly so.

I put her to bed
and gave her a little broth.

I thought it no more
than a childish ailment.

And then last night, well, fortunately,
I'd taken to sleeping in her room,

she had difficulty in breathing.

Naturally, I called
the doctor immediately.

- Aye, well, I'd better see the nurse.
- There is no nurse.

I can do everything that's necessary.

Four days? You can't have slept a wink!

- I assure you, I can manage.
- No, you cannot manage.

Miss Gaunt, you must learn
to delegate responsibility.

Now, who does the cooking
and the cleaning?

Well, I do it. It's only a small house.

Yes, well, I hired you as a governess,
not a skivvy.

I want you to hire a cook
and a housemaid.

And two nurses
to work turn and turn about, hmm?

Yes, Mr Onedin.

I know you meant well,

but we must think of what's best
for Charlotte.

I want a couple of Nightingale nurses,
not your gin-soaked drabs.

- What will you do?
- I shall wait here.

Whoa, that was an excellent dinner.

By heck, Elizabeth, you did us proud.

Them oyster patties.
You ought to give Sarah the recipe.

- Oh, I doubt my cook would part with it.
- No?

Do help yourself to brandy, Robert,
and smoke if you wish.

Oh, aye.

I trust you don't intend to appear
in public in that garment, Elizabeth.

It is... Well, it's a little risky.

It is the very latest
London fashion, Sarah.

Of course, not everyone can wear it.

Aye, well...

Yes, it's very nice.

And what do you think
of James' latest project?

- It does hold certain promise.
- You can't be serious.

Well, the country of Brazildoes have
enormous potential, Robert.

- Beg your pardon, madam.
- Yes, what is it, Alice?

- There's a person.
- A person?

Wishing to speak to you, insisting like.

Well, what sort of a person?

Female sort of a person, ma'am.

- Gives the name Spendilow.
- Spendilow?

- Mrs Spendilow?
- Yes, ma'am...

Very well, Alice,
show the person in, will you?

- Mrs Spendilow, I had quite forgotten.
- So had I.

- Poor Uncle Percy.
- Do stop calling that creature Uncle.

He was guilty.
The evidence quite conclusive.

Well, I don't know.

Well, for sometime past, Mr Dunwoody
has been missing small amounts

from our petty cash.

Why ever didn't you say so in court?
That could have cleared him.

No, you see, Uncle Percy
is a frequent visitor.

Oh.

The person, madam.

Oh, do come in, Mrs Spendilow.

- Robert, a chair for the lady, please.
- Aye.

Do sit down.

Would you care to take
a little something, Mrs Spendilow?

A drop of gin if you please
and thank you, ma'am.

I don't usually touch spirits,
except in a necessity, but...

Just now I'm so frightened.
Thank your kindness.

Poor Spendilow.
He's suffering pitiful.

Prisons is dreadful, hard places.

They're meant to be dreadful places,
Mrs Spendilow.

I don't know what's to be done?

Business is falling off with the police
poking and prying,

customers is shy, very shy.

There's no need for anyone
engaged in honest trade

to be afraid of the police.

I'm sure we all sympathise
with your predicament, Mrs Spendilow.

"Go and speak to Miss Elizabeth."
If you'll excuse the liberty, ma'am.

Those were Spendilow's very words.

Mrs Elizabeth will help.

Well, I'm sure I don't know
what I can do to help.

Oh, you've been kind, ma'am,
more than kind.

Taking a bale or two of oakum
off our hands from time to time.

Mr Robert buying casks of Tallow.

And Mr James letting us have first pick
of surplus stores, spoil ed of course,

but at very favourable prices.

Oh yes, you have all been most kind
over the years, but...

I'm lost without Spendilow
and that's a fact I'll not deny.

All right, I'm sure we'll all do
everything we can to...

Won't we, Robert?

What? Oh, yes, yes,
we won't leave no stone unturned.

My brother has considerable influence
in the field of prison reform.

Oh, thank you, sir, thank you.

Oh, well, I can't promise anything,
mind you, I can't promise anything.

But I'll... Well, I'll do me best.

I could have a word with the...

With the prison governor.
Aye, I'll do that.

Alice, come in here, will you?

Now, I think it's time
you were away off home.

Now, don't worry about anything.

You leave everything to us.
We'll do all we can.

Just one moment, Mrs Spendilow.

Here's a little something
just to tide you over.

Oh. Thank you, ma'am.

- You're too generous.
- I'm too generous.

Am I to understand that you two have
been supporting those creatures

by buying their rubbishy stocks?

Well, only the occasional oddment.

I mean, I looked upon it
as an act of charity.

Well, me too.

But trust James to turn a penny
even from an act of philanthropy.

We have been buying James'
cast-off rubbish.

One.

Two.

Three.

One.

Two.

Three.

One.

Two.

Three.

Pick him up, Mr Ayckroyd. Pick him up.

One.

Two.

Three.

One.

Two.

What on Earth are you doing here?

How's Charlotte?

- Past the crisis, thank God.
- Amen to that.

What arrangements have you made for her?

I left Miss Gaunt in charge.

I seemed to be getting in her way.

Quite lost her patience with me.

Bustled me out of the house.

Remarkable woman that,
you know. Remarkable.

Right then.
What seems to be the trouble?

Well, it's these. These accounts.

I just can't make head nor tail
of your accounting.

I mean, you moved the monies
from this company's account

to another over here
and then back again.

I mean, it's just a maze of figures.

How much do you reckon
that you're worth now, Robert, eh?

Well, that's what
I'm trying to find out.

When we started this company,

alll had was the Charlotte Rose
and you put up ã15.

- And you squealed like a pig.
- Of course I squealed like a pig.

But I coughed up and you went ahead
and formed a ã100 company.

Aye, how much do you reckon
that your 15 percent is worth now?

15 percent of what?

Close on one and a quarter million.

You...

15 over five...

That's well over ã180,000.

Hmm, not a bad return on 15 pounds,
is it then?

One hundred and...

I can afford to buy a palace.

Oh, you can, can you?

Yes, I've just got to sell
some of these shares.

Not unless I agree.

Now I own 70 percent shares.
You sell nothing without my say so.

I see, so I've got to whistle
for my money, is that it?

Well, no, James,
not this time you don't. Oh, no.

I am determined to buy that house.

And the cost of it is going
through the company's books.

- Oh, aye?
- Yes.

Otherwise that Brazilian venture
of yours

doesn't go through without my say so.

Because I shall refuse to put my name
to another document.

Where do you expect to find this palace?

- Croxteth Road.
- Hmm.

- It will be a palace.
- Well, the company can afford it.

So...

Ah, it sounds like
a good enough investment.

- Very well. Company will foot the bill.
- Thank you.

- Anything else you want to buy?
- Not for the moment, James.

Goodnight.

I'll have to wait in earshot, ma'am.
It's my bound duty.

Of course, I quite understand.

Uncle Percy!

I'm done for,
Miss Elizabeth.

What have you been doing to him?

It's the effects of prison, ma'am.
It affects many of them like that.

Uncle Percy, did you steal that money?

I've stolen nothing, Miss Elizabeth.

Very well. I believe you.

But if you didn't,
then someone else did.

Who, Uncle Percy?
Who else had the opportunity?

I don't... I don't know.

Well, think, Uncle Percy,
think who else was present.

I can't remember, Miss Elizabeth.

Well, there was Mr Dunwoody
and Mr Harvey.

No, no, no, Mr Harvey was
in the common office

and Dunwoody went speak to him
and I followed in.

And there was a lot of coming and going.
The office was very busy and I...

I think there was a clerk or someone.
I don't know, I don't know...

- I can't remember rightly.
- One of my clerks? Which one?

I don't know.
I didn't take no particular notice.

And anyway one clerk's
much like another, ain't he?

Well, don't give up hope, Uncle Percy.
We shall find the villain.

I shan't last six months,
Miss Elizabeth.

I shan't last...

Thank you again for your kindness,
Mr Cringle.

This is for your trouble.

- I shouldn't really...
- Are you married, Mr Cringle?

I have that good fortune, ma'am.

She must indeed be
a most fortunate lady.

- Are there any children of your union?
- Two.

A fine lad and the prettiest young girl
you ever saw.

One for the lad. One for the girl.

Three sovereigns?

And now you have four.
This one for Mr Spendilow.

Oh, no, I couldn't, ma'am.
The prisoners is not allowed money.

Oh, of course not, and quite rightly so.

But it could go
towards a little comfort.

All in me power, ma'am.

Good.

Well, I shall be back in a day or two.
We may resume our conversation then.

I look forward to that pleasure, ma'am.

Our company will be called
The Onedin Brazil Company.

Hmm, has a good ring to it,
don't you think?

Sounds not only respectable,
but profitable as well, sir.

Oh, that's what it certainly will be.

Here, how do you fancy your name
going down on the prospectus?

- Prospectus? What's that?
- Well, that's what I'm drafting now.

Invitation to the public
to buy shares, eh.

Captain Baines,
discoverer of Port Baines.

Oh, of course, your name should go down.

- Well, if you think so, sir.
- Right.

Now how many shares
shall I put you down for? 100? Hmm?

Shares, eh.
Well, I don't know about that.

Well, same as having shares in a ship.
Plenty of captains have that.

Well, begging your pardon, sir,
this is different.

I mean, this ain't no ship,
this is a company.

Could make you a lot of money.

Oh, no, no, I don't like touching things
I don't understand.

Anyways, I can't afford it.

- Well, I'll dock it off your pay.
- No, sir.

Of course, it'd be different
if this was a ship.

Well, it's not a ship.

Now do you want the shares or don't you?

Well, put like that, sir,
thank you, but no.

Oh, what a pity.

Your name would have looked good
on that prospectus.

Tell you what,
I'll put you down for ten.

- Oh, but sir...
- As a gift.

You can pay 'em back next year.

Warder's supper.

I've not much in the way
of an appetite these nights.

Sit you down, 341, sit you down.

Fine lady, that Mrs Frazer.

Got the power of faith, she has.

Oh?

In you, 341.

In you, so don't you go letting
her down now, nor me neither.

I want you looking spruce
and in fine fettle

next time she comes, do you hear me?

- Yes, yes, Mr Cringle.
- All right, sup up.

Yes, Mr Cringle.

Miscarriages of justice have
occasionally been known to happen,

the law being what it is.

When they does, you'll find that some
of us have sympathetic natures.

Now I've been considering
your case most carefully.

I've come to the conclusion
that you may be regarded

as a trustworthy inmate
of these confines.

You know what it means, 341?
No. No, no, Mr Cringle.

Trustworthy duties is the meaning,
fetching and carrying for the kitchen,

doling out victuals,
that sort of duty, is my meaning.

You start tomorrow.

Oh.

Thank you, Mr Cringle.

I trust you will acquaint the lady
with your good fortune

- on the occasion of her next visit?
- Oh...

Yes, yes, of course,
of course, Mr Cringle.

You'll be excused further heavy exercise
until further notice.

So there's no need to trouble yourself
with the crank.

Goodnight, 341.

Goodnight, goodnight, Mr Cringle.

You wish to retain your position here,
Mr Dunwoody?

Oh yes, indeed, ma'am.

Then may I suggest you start
to exercise your mind.

Now then, when Mr Spendilow was
in this office, who else was present?

Oh dear, I just cannot recollect.

Think, Mr Dunwoody, think.

- Steady as a rock.
- Ah, parlour tricks.

I came here to watch the fancy, not see
you supping like a heathen dromedary.

You having a bet?

Well, I thought to venture
a dollar on Tiny Tim here.

He's too old and he's too slow.
My money is on Wild Harry.

- Now he's too young and too eager.
- All right, I'll give you three to one.

- In guineas.
- Nah, don't be a fool.

- Five to one.
- Now be quiet, quiet.

I'll take that, mister.

This is a private conversation.

Hey, what's the matter with you?
You're spoiling for trouble.

Well, the fact of the matter is,
I'm out of favour.

I was doing all right for myself
and she's a lovely handful.

- Who?
- But headstrong, headstrong and wilful.

- She can be an almighty wilful woman.
- Who?

A widow woman, lovely as sin
and wealthy as Croesus.

What more could a man ask?

- Who are you talking about?
- As trim a craft as I ever saw.

Full rigged and pretty
as a painted picture.

And just who are you speaking about?

She gave me such a roasting over
that business about the stolen money.

Are you talking about Miss Elizabeth?

Oh, yes.

Now you take that back

'cause I'll throw you
through that window.

Thank you.

We haven't finished our business yet.

Well, if they start a book,

I'll have two pennies
on the fat fella.

Though I must say, our Mark
if I've got a choice,

I'd rather have cock fighting.

That's him, that's the one.
That man...

Who?

It was one of your clerks, Drummond.
I recognised him immediately.

It doesn't prove anything.

But he was in the office at the time.
Ask Dunwoody.

Dunwoody can't remember.

- But I can.
- Yes, a little late in the day.

Well, he was just a clerk
going about his business.

But any clerk who can afford
a half-a-crown entrance fee

and bet the way he was betting
is living beyond his means.

Betting heavily?

"In shillings and doubling up,"
so Baines says. He followed him up.

I stayed below
and I talked to the landlord.

He says that Drummond's a regular.

Yes, but in order to obtain
Mr Spendilow's release,

we require proof.

Well, a man who'll steal once
will steal again.

Only this time...

We make it easy for him.

Goodnight, Charlie.

- Oh.
- Not now, Mr Harvey.

I cannot take the responsibility.

- The banks are closed.
- Don't overdo it.

Uh, well, it still needs to be checked.
It's a lot of money.

I'll speak to Mrs Frazer about it.

Where have you been?

Well, I was waiting for the first clerk
to come out.

We want him to feel safe, don't we?

Is the money all accounted for?

Every penny.

Right then.

- Goodnight, Mrs Frazer.
- Goodnight.

- Goodnight, Mr Dunwoody.
- Goodnight, Mr Harvey.

- Oh, Drummond.
- Yes, Mr Dunwoody?

Would you be so good as
to take this note to Mrs Frazer?

Oh, yes, of course.

- From Mr Dunwoody, ma'am.
- Oh, thank you, Drummond.

Has Mr Harvey left?

Oh, yes, ma'am, just this minute.
Do you want me to run after him?

Oh, no, thank you.
I know where to find him.

I was just leaving myself, but...

I take it you are
a trustworthy young man.

Oh, yes, ma'am, of course,
upon me heart.

Good. Then would you oblige me
by counting this loose cash?

Oh, yes. Certainly, ma'am.

And do remember
to record each number separately.

Oh... Oh, yes, of course.

Otherwise we shall never trace
any discrepancy.

No. Leave it to me, ma'am.

- Goodnight, Mrs Frazer.
- Goodnight.

- Goodnight, Mr Dunwoody.
- Goodnight, Mrs Frazer.

I've checked the money, Mr Dunwoody.

Good evening, Drummond.
You off to bag a fancy again?

Oh...

Would you mind coming in here
a minute, please, hmm?

- Just a minute, please.
- I... I don't understand.

Thank you.

There's nothing to be alarmed about.

We just want to know
how good you are at counting money.

Will you sit down, please?

Well, it's all there, every penny.

If you don't believe me,
check it yourself.

I don't have to.

Mr Dunwoody.

This, I take it,
is a list of the numbers.

It's all there. Check it and see.

And afterwards,
I shall expect an apology.

A ã5 note is missing.
That is the number.

Let's have it, son.

She's asleep.

You've both been sleeping
for three hours.

- I've brought you supper.
- Three hours, eh?

She's certainly on the mend.

I know. That's why I've packed off
those two nurses.

- You don't want...
- Well, there's no good

in keeping a dog and barking yourself.

I can take over from now.

- Rabbit pie.
- Yeah.

While you're eating up,
I'll go and get a Hansom.

Oh.

Well, you have got a business
to attend to

and a good night's sleep
is what you need.

I think you enjoy bossing me around,
don't you?

- Well, someone's got...
- Huh?

Nothing.

Our new house will have
a separate games room.

It'll be much more commodious
than yours, Elizabeth.

Oh, yes, but older property does have
more character, don't you think?

But we haven't bought the house yet.

I mean we've looked over
one or two possibilities,

but no decision has been taken as yet.
No decision.

We'll have the corner site.
I've quite made up my mind about that.

Do you know what they're asking
for a house?

ã950. For a house, mind you. A house.

All right, everybody.
Carriage is at the door.

James, how is Charlotte?

Oh, showing great improvement. Mind you,
we may only stay for a few minutes.

Mustn't tax her strength.

Oh, I trust there's no longer
any danger of infection, James.

- We do have Samuel to think of.
- No danger whatsoever.

Mind you, her throat's still swollen,
so she has to stay to her bed,

you know, for the next few weeks.

- Beg your pardon, madam.
- Yes, Alice, what is it?

- There's two persons here.
- Well, which two persons?

I hope that we didn't catch you ladies
and gentlemen on the hop.

I merely wanted to tender
my most extreme gratitude.

We are obligated,
highly obligated, aren't we?

Oh, you've all been most kind.

Yes, well, we never doubted
your innocence for one moment.

- Did we, James?
- Well, not entirely.

What do you mean by that?

Well, always seemed odd to me

that a clerk familiar
with office procedure

should help himself to cash
that had already been counted.

But it was Drummond.
We know it was Drummond.

Oh, I've no doubt that your clerk

pilfered a shilling here
and a shilling there,

but it wasn't until you laid that trap

that he was tempted to take a bank note.

Aye, it was you, wasn't it, Percy?

- I only took what was mine by rights.
- Percy!

You will never set foot
in my office again.

And after me speaking
to the prison governor on his behalf.

I never had any doubt,
never for a moment.

Yes, well, what are you going to do
with yourself now, Percy, hmm?

Well, I suppose I shall try
and get started again, Mr Onedin.

It's all right for the rich, you know.
They've got resources.

I only took what was mine by rights.

I was entitled. Yes, entitled.

All right, everybody.
Let's not keep Charlotte waiting.
