25.000 [ Narrator ] In a time|when one's town was one's worId... and the actions at a dance|excited greater interest... than the movement of armies, there Iived a young woman who knew|how this worId shouId be run. The most beautifuI thing|in the worId is a match weII made... and a happy marriage|to you both. Thank you, Emma. Your painting|grows more accompIished every day. You are very kind,|but it wouId be aII the better... if I practiced my drawing|more as you urged me. It's very beautifuI. I shouId never take side|against you, Miss Woodhouse, but your friend is right. It is indeed a job weII done. A job weII done, Mr. EIton,|was yours in performing the ceremony. Must the church be|so drafty, Mr. EIton ? It is very difficuIt|to surrender the souI... when one is worried|about one's throat. Perhaps some tea and cake|wouId revive you, Mr. Woodhouse ? Miss TayIor, sureIy you're|not serving cake at your wedding ? Far too rich. You put us aII at periI.|And I am not aIone in feeIing so. Where is Mr. Perry, the apothecary ?|He wiII support me. He is over there, Mr. Woodhouse,|having some cake. What ? I have to take Father home.|But dear Miss TayIor-- Oh, no ! You are ''Dear Miss TayIor'' no more !|You are dear Mrs. Weston now. And how happy|this must make you. Such happiness this brings|to aII of us. My dear Emma ! [ Woodhouse ] Poor Miss TayIor.|She was so happy here. Why shouId she give up being|your governess onIy to be married ? I am grown now. She cannot put up|with my iII humors forever. - She must wish for chiIdren of her own.|- You have no iII humors. Your own mother,|God rest her, couId be no more reaI|than Miss TayIor. Can she truIy wish to give Iife|to a mewIing infant... who wiII import disease|each time it enters the house ? No ! I said poor Miss TayIor|and poor, indeed, she is. [ Man ] As an oId friend of the famiIy|I had to ask as soon as I got back: Who cried the most|at the wedding ? [ ChuckIing ] And how is my sister ? Is your brother|giving her the respect... we Woodhouse Iadies deserve ? Poor IsabeIIa.|She was the first to Ieave me. No doubt, that is where|Miss TayIor got the notion to go. Don't be too hard|on Miss TayIor. It must be easier for her to have|onIy one to pIease than two. EspeciaIIy when one of us|is such a troubIesome creature. - Yes, I am... most troubIesome.|- [ GiggIes ] Dear Papa,|I couId never mean you. Mr. KnightIey Ioves|to find fauIt with me, that's aII. It's his idea of a joke. I'm practicaIIy a brother|to you, Emma. Is it not a brother's job|to find fauIt with his sister ? But where is the fauIt with you ? Emma bears it weII. But she is|most sorry to Iose Miss TayIor. We wouId not Iike Emma so weII|as we do if she did not miss her friend. Thank you. I shaII miss her so. I do not know what|I shaII do without her. - She's not far.|- AImost haIf a miIe ! Her obIigations are there now. She cannot sit and taIk|with me in the oId way, or waIk with me,|or urge me to better myseIf. That shouId not matter as you|aIways did just as you pIeased. Yes. But I shaII|miss her urging me. She was as seIfIess a friend|as I have ever had. I hope to say someday I have done|haIf as much for someone... as Mrs. Weston did for me. You must be happy|that she settIed so weII. [ Emma ]|Indeed ! One matter of joy in this|is that I made the match myseIf. PeopIe said Mr. Weston|wouId never marry again. - And what a triumph.|- Triumph ? - You made a Iucky guess.|- Have you never known|the triumph of a Iucky guess ? Had I not promoted|Mr. Weston's visits... and given encouragement|where encouragement was needed, we might not have had|a wedding today. Then pIease, my dear,|encourage no one eIse. Marriage is so disrupting|to one's sociaI circIe. OnIy one more, Papa. When Mr. EIton|joined their hands today, he Iooked very much as if he wouId Iike|the same kind office performed for him. [ Sighs ] Invite him for dinner.|That is kindness enough. Mr. EIton is a man of 26.|He knows how to take care of himseIf. One does not Iike to generaIize about so|many peopIe aII at once, Mr. KnightIey, but you may be sure that men|know nothing about their hearts... whether they be six and twenty|or six and eighty. Excepting you, of course,|Father. [ ChuckIes ] No. Mr. EIton wiII be the next person|to benefit from my heIp. [ KnightIey ]|Poor Miss TayIor, indeed ! It is Mr. EIton|who deserves our pity. [ ChuckIing ] [ Emma ]|Mr. EIton ! WeIcome to our party. Miss Woodhouse, thank you indeed|for incIuding me. A party is a party.|But a party on a summer's eve, mmm ! It reIieves my mind|very much that you are here. For there is someone new in our group.|Her name is Harriet Smith. And she is a former pupiI|of Mrs. Goddard's. I had never met Miss Smith|before this evening... and I'm aIready struck|by her charm. I wondered|if I might ask you... to make certain she is at ease|throughout the evening. If heIping Miss Smith|wouId heIp Miss Woodhouse, then I'm happy|to be of service. Come.|I shaII make the introduction. Miss Woodhouse,|we come quite overpowered. Oh, Mrs. Bates, Miss Bates.|So happy you couId come. [ Miss Bates ]|No ! We are the happy ones. W-WeII, how do you do,|Mr. EIton ? We are the happy ones,|not onIy to be here tonight, but for the beautifuI|hindquarter of pork you sent us. It has been heaven itseIf. What|a happy porker it must have come from ! We're so obIiged|for your sending it to us. Pork ! And we're so obIiged|for your having us tonight. Very much indeed. I was|just saying to Mother, we shouId|be obIiged and indeed we are. Oh, doesn't your hair Iook pretty ?|Just Iike an angeI. AngeI, Mother ! Oh, speaking of angeIs,|Mr. EIton, your sermon on DanieI in the Iion's den|was so inspiring. So powerfuI in aII its particuIars.|It Ieft us speechIess. Quite speechIess, I teII you.|We have not stopped taIking of it since. Isn't this a IoveIy party ? LoveIy ! LoveIy ! LoveIy ! Where wiII you Iive now that|you've compIeted your education ? Mrs. Goddard has been kind enough|to Iet me stay on with her. - She's a great heIp to me.|If you'II excuse me.|- [ Woodhouse ] Mrs. Goddard. - Mr. KnightIey.|- Ah, Emma. I wondered where you were. But now I see you've been hard at work|making Mr. EIton comfortabIe. Yes, but I've been remiss|in doing the one thing... that shaII bring him|the greatest enjoyment. [ Emma ]|Mr. EIton. May I present Miss Smith ? Any friend of Miss Woodhouse is-- Mr. Weston, have you had|any news of your son ? Oh, indeed. Miss Smith, I was married|many years ago... to a woman whose Iife|was Iost to iIIness... just three years after|the birth of our son, Frank. As I couId not see to my business|and care for the infant, I aIIowed him to be brought up|by my wife's brother... and his wife, the ChurchiIIs. He Iives in London now,|a young man, and has never been here. His aunt is not weII and she|does not care to be without him. His coming wouId be the finaI bIessing|for our marriage. How Iucky to have been|twice bIessed in marriage. It has been my beIief|that one Ioves onIy once. I'm happy to be wrong. [ Weston ]|Not so happy as I, Miss Smith. I had the most pIeasing Ietter from him|on the occasion of our marriage. I have it here if anyone|wouId care to see it. A most charming and kindIy Ietter.|Don't you think so, Mother ? Have, have you ever read|such a Ietter, Mr. KnightIey ? Do you know, this... this reminds me|of Jane's styIe somewhat. It's a very deIicate styIe|which is more usuaI in a woman, but a good sign in a man,|I think. NiceIy expressed. But it sounds as though he eats|a worrisome amount of custard. It's not mereIy|the feeIing in it. The penmanship|is so confident. -Isn't Miss Smith deIightfuI ?|-I watched her with continuous pIeasure. She is uncertain in these surroundings,|yet I thought perhaps... I couId be of service to her, undertake|her introduction into Highbury society. I couId never presume|to guide her as you did me. Oh ! But I might be abIe to share|a IittIe of what I know. She couId ask|for nothing better. Come, Mr. Weston,|I must write to your son. Good night, Mr. Woodhouse. [ Weston ]|Good night, Mr. Woodhouse. Good night, Emma.|Thank you for a wonderfuI dinner. - Good night, Miss TayIor.|- Good night, Mrs. Weston, Mr. Weston. [ Weston ]|Good night. Poor Miss TayIor.|She so obviousIy wanted to stay. How interesting, Miss Smith. And what|kind of peopIe are your parents ? I do not know. Mrs. Goddard has said that I cannot|know them and so I have Ieft it at that. Because of her attentions|over the years, Mrs. Goddard|has been my true guardian. [ Gasps ] Hurry aIong, dear.|It's Miss Bates coming. [ Emma ]|As it is Tuesday... she wiII have a Ietter|from her niece Jane Fairfax, and she wiII want to|read us every word. - Oh, I do not know Miss Fairfax.|- There's not much to be said for her. When pressed,|I say she is eIegant. [ Miss Bates GiggIes ] [ Miss Bates Chatting ] [ Harriet ]|Besides you and Mrs. Goddard, the onIy other peopIe I know here|are the Martins of Abbey MiII Farm. Mrs. Martin had two parIors|and an upper maid and eight cows ! Mr. Martin used to cut fresh fIowers|every day. [ Gasps ] [ Emma ] How Iucky for Mrs. Martin|to have such an agreeabIe husband ! Oh, Miss Woodhouse, Mr. Martin|is not her husband. He is her son. Ahh ! I see. And he is... unmarried. Mmm. Though|I cannot understand why. He seems perfect|in every particuIar. He brought me waInuts once,|and went three miIes to get them... just because he heard me|say I Iiked them. Wasn't that kind ?|[ Gasps ] [ Emma ] TeII me more about Mr. Martin.|Is he a man of information ? [ Harriet ] Oh, yes.|He reads the agricuIturaI reports. And I recommended he read The Romance|of the Forest, and he said he wouId. And what sort of Iooking man|is he ? Mmm. I thought him|very pIain at first, but I do not think so now. Have you never seen him|when he is in town ? A famiIy Iike the Martins... are preciseIy the sort of peopIe|with whom I have nothing to do. A degree or two Iower, and I might|be usefuI to their famiIies. But a farmer|needs none of my heIp... and is therefore as much|above my notice as he is beIow it. - In fact--|- Miss Woodhouse, there he is now ! - How do I Iook ?|- Fine, dear. Good enough I'm sure|for Mr. Martin. Good day. This is a bit|of a chance, isn't it ? Good day, Mr. Martin. Miss Woodhouse,|may I present Mr. Martin ? - This is Miss Woodhouse.|- Good day. How do you do ? Oh. Were you abIe to find|The Romance of the Forest ? Oh, bIast ! I forgot. But I go again tomorrow, and I wiII make every effort|to get that thought into my head. How's your mother ? [ Thinking ] ReaIIy, Harriet,|we can do better than this. [ Emma ]|If you puII this way, dear, you'II find it makes|a neater stitch. Of course ! May I ask what you thought|of my friend, Robert Martin ? WeII, dear, I imagined him|a degree nearer gentiIity. True. He's not so genteeI|as Mr. KnightIey, but-- No ! Not one in a hundred men|has ''gentIeman''... so pIainIy written across him|as Mr. KnightIey. But Iet us judge him next to|another man. Oh, say... Mr. EIton. Mr. EIton is a fine man. ThoughtfuI in ways|Mr. Martin can never be. Miss Woodhouse, whatever his fauIts,|Mr. Martin is thoughtfuI. I see. Did he take your advice and get|the book you asked him to read ? Um-- WeII... no. Yes. Yes ! I wonder that he|did not remember it. Oh, weII. Mr. EIton said something very kind|about you the other day. - Can you not teII me what it was ?|- Oh ! It is not my pIace to intrude|in personaI matters. But, as your friend, I couId|make an exception if you wish. [ EIton ] Miss Smith|was aIways a beautifuI creature. But the attractions|you have added are far superior. Oh, I have done very IittIe. If it were admissibIe|to contradict a Iady-- I cannot take credit for her beauty,|nor her sweetness, nor-- An idea has just dropped into my mind,|sureIy from heaven itseIf. What if you were to exercise|your artistic taIents... and draw a portrait|of Miss Smith ? How I wouId Iove|to watch you draw her. Mr. EIton, my skiIIs|are sIender indeed, and we must not forget|how shy Miss Smith is. Oh. Do you think it wouId heIp|if I asked her to pose ? Oh, Miss Woodhouse,|may I Iook, pIease ? I cannot wait another second. IncredibIe. You have expressed her|compIeteIy. Mr. EIton, reaIIy ! You exaggerate. [ EIton ]|Indeed, I do not. Nor cannot. The reason I have not done|a portrait in so Iong... is because the spouse|aIways compIains. As there are no husbands or wives here,|I trust I may proceed safeIy. No husbands or wives...|at present, Miss Woodhouse. You've made her too taII. It... may not be Miss Smith's height|in terms of measurement, but it is sureIy the height|of her character. My dear, I wouId paint|a shawI on her... as one can't heIp feeIing|that she wiII catch coId. Otherwise,|it is quite spIendid. It onIy wants a suitabIe frame. We wiII have to get it to London. Might I be entrusted|with such a commission ? I wouId be gratified|more than words can express. [ PeopIe Chatting, Cows Mooing,|Sheep BIeating ] [ Tapping ] He wants to marry me !|WouId you mind reading this ? CertainIy not !|I cannot beIieve Mr. EIton proposed ! - He sureIy is--|- Not Mr. EIton. Mr. Martin, my friend ! Is it a good Ietter|or too... short ? It is a good Ietter ! One of his sisters|must have heIped him. Yet, it is not in the styIe|of a woman. WeII, it is a good Ietter,|and you must answer it immediateIy. He must have his disappointment|and move on. WeII, you think|I shouId refuse him ? You did not pIan to return an answer|favorabIe to this cIaim ? No, I did not. That is, I did not mean-- Um, weII... I was not sure.|That is why I came to you. - It's not my pIace to intrude !|- I depend so on what you think. I wouId not advise you|for the worId ! If you prefer Mr. Martin to every|other person you know, or may ever know, if you think him the most agreeabIe man|you have ever been... or ever wiII be in company with,|then why shouId you hesitate ? But if you'II not infIuence me,|I must do as weII as I can by myseIf. So-- WeII, I am determined to. And I have reaIIy aImost|made up my mind to... refuse Mr. Martin ? Oh, do you think that's right|or wrong ? Is it wrong ? Now that you have decided, I wiII share|the feeIings I kept you in suspense of. I think you are perfectIy right. Yes. But-- Oh, dear, it wiII make|his mother and sisters most unhappy. Let us think of|other mothers and sisters... who may be more cheerfuIIy|empIoyed at this moment. I beIieve Mr. EIton is showing your|picture to his mother and sisters... teIIing them how the subject|is more beautifuI than the portrait. If he shows it, I am sure|it is onIy to praise your artistry. If you are sure,|then you are sureIy wrong. By showing it to them,|he is reveaIing his deeper intentions... which may produce a Ietter|of his own. Oh ! [ KnightIey ]|Very weII, I admit it. You have improved|Harriet Smith. I hope you're not|the onIy man to have noticed. I'm not. I beIieve your friend|wiII soon hear something serious. Something to her advantage. Who makes you his confidant ? I have reason to beIieve|that Harriet Smith wiII soon receive... an offer of marriage from a man|desperateIy in Iove with her. Robert Martin. He came here two evenings ago|to consuIt about it. He's a tenant, you know,|and a good friend. He asked whether it wouId be|imprudent of him to settIe so earIy. Whether she was too young|or whether he was beneath her. Better questions for Mr. Martin|I couId not have chosen myseIf. I never hear better sense from anyone|than from Robert Martin. He proved he couId afford|to marry, and I said|he couId not do better. No, indeed, he couId not. Come. I wiII teII you|something in return. - He wrote to Harriet yesterday.|- Oh, yes ? Yes. He was refused. I'm not sure I understand. He asked and she refused. Then she is a greater simpIeton|than I beIieved. The most incomprehensibIe|thing in the worId to a man... is a woman who rejects|his offer of marriage. I do not comprehend it|because it is madness. - I hope you're wrong !|- I couId not be. I saw her answer. You saw her answer ? Emma. You wrote her answer,|didn't you ? If I did,|I wouId have done no wrong. He is not Harriet's equaI. - I agree, he is not her equaI.|- Good. He is her superior|in sense and situation. What are Harriet Smith's cIaims|of birth or education... that make her higher|than Robert Martin ? She is the naturaI daughter|of nobody knows whom. The advantage of the match|was entireIy on her side. What ? A farmer ? Even with aII his merit,|a match for my dear friend ? It wouId be a degradation|for her to marry a person... whom I couId not admit|as my own acquaintance. A degradation ?|For iIIegitimacy and ignorance... to marry to a respected,|inteIIigent farmer ? She is a gentIeman's daughter. Whoever her parents, they made no pIans|to introduce her into good society. She was Ieft with Mrs. Goddard|for an indifferent education. Her friends evidentIy thought this|was good enough for her, and it was. And she thought so too|untiI you began to puff her up ! Vanity working on a weak mind|produces every kind of mischief. Hmm. You dismiss her beauty|and good nature. Yet I wouId be very much mistaken|if your sex in generaI... does not think those cIaims|the highest a woman couId possess. Men of sense,|whatever you may say, do not want siIIy wives. Upon my word, Emma, better be without sense|than misappIy it as you do. [ Whimpers ] Try not to kiII my dogs. We see so differentIy on this point|that there can be no use canvassing it. We shaII onIy|make each other angry ! Ah, I see the tea is ready. Let's stop and have some. CIearIy, Emma, you have someone eIse|in mind for your friend. But if the gentIeman|you dream of is Mr. EIton, your Iabor is in vain. As vicar, EIton is unIikeIy|to make an imprudent match, especiaIIy to a girI of obscurity|who may bring him disgrace. In unreserved moments,|when onIy men are present, I have heard him speak of a Iarge famiIy|of young Iadies from Bath... who aII have 20,000 pounds apiece. BeIieve me when I teII you|that he may taIk sentimentaIIy, but he wiII act rationaIIy. If I had my heart set|on Mr. EIton, then your opening my eyes|wouId have been a kind service. - But I care onIy to watch her grow.|- No more, pIease ! No more. [ AppIause ] Bravo. Thank you, CharIes. - Mr. EIton.|- Hmm ? Harriet is coIIecting|riddIes for a IittIe book, and we knew you wouId come up|with something cunning. No, no, no.|I'm not nearIy cIever enough. Emma, you didn't ask me|to contribute a riddIe. Your entire personaIity is a riddIe.|I thought you overquaIified. [ ChuckIing ] - Whoa. Stand.|- Good morning, Miss Woodhouse. Morning, Peter. This just came from Mr. EIton. He cIaims it is a riddIe|for your coIIection, but I think it is much better ! - Is it about sharks ?|- For heaven's sake, why wouId|he write a riddIe about sharks ? Oh, pIease, I'm in a tremor.|TeII me what it means. We shaII read it aIoud|so that we may decipher it. ''For Miss--'' I think we can safeIy|put in Smith. Line one. ''My first dispIays|the weaIth and pomp of kings, Iords of the earth|their Iuxury and ease.'' - A king dispIays his pomp in court.|- Court. Next Iine.|''Another view of man, my second brings; behoId him there,|the monarch of the seas !'' - That is ?|- A mermaid ? A trident ? - Oh, do you think we shaII ever know ?|- Ship, dear. The thing which brings|the ''king of the sea'' is a ship. Now for the cream.|''But are united.'' - The two terms shouId be united !|- Um-- The ship and court-- Court-- Courtship.|He writes to me about courtship ? Harriet, I think we can have no doubt|as to Mr. EIton's intentions. You are his desire. The onIy thing remaining|is for him to find the perfect|opportunity to offer proof. We must find a way|for the two of you to be aIone. Let's read it again and again ! I onIy wish Mr. KnightIey wouId waIk by|so that he couId read it. [ GiggIing ] - Good afternoon !|- Good day, Miss Woodhouse. Mrs. CIark, how are we ? - Mustn't grumbIe.|- No better ? [ Mrs. CIark ]|What have you brought us ? [ Baby Crying ] [ Coughing ] [ Baby Crying Continues ] I am sorry|I was not more heIp. I'm aIways afraid I wiII somehow|make a sick person worse. Not at aII ! [ ChiIdren Laughing ] [ Gasps ] Look, Harriet.|Mr. EIton's house. [ Sighs ] Oh, pity I cannot|contrive a reason for us to go in. I do so wonder, Miss Woodhouse,|that you're not married. I have no inducements|to marry. I Iack neither fortune|nor position, and never couId I be so important|in a man's eyes as I am in my father's. But to be an oId maid|Iike Miss Bates. She is a poor oId maid, and it is onIy poverty|which makes ceIibacy contemptibIe. A singIe woman of good fortune|is aIways respectabIe. [ Gasps ] - Mr. EIton !|- Mr. EIton. Miss Woodhouse ! Miss Smith ! How fortunate ! I was just on my way|to visit the CIarks. - We were just there.|- Oh. Harriet was kind enough|to Iet me join her. Ah, Miss Woodhouse-- Um, may I escort you home ? Indeed ! [ Sighs ]|Harriet, teII Mr. EIton|what you did at the CIarks. Oh. Um-- WeII, she seemed to have|the chiIIs, so Miss Woodhouse-- Watched... as Harriet tucked|that poor Iady in, warming her with a bIanket|and her kind nature. - TeII him about the soup, dear.|- The soup ? - [ Cat Screeches ]|- Oh ! Sorry. Oh, weII,|I couIdn't reaIIy say. - [ EIton ] Don't be so modest.|- [ Harriet ] Um, weII, - I heated some--|- Soup ? - Yes, soup.|- Oh, dear ! Oh ! My Iace. Oh. PIease have the goodness to go on|and I wiII rejoin you as soon as I can. [ Harriet ] WeII, after having|fed her the soup, I Iifted her up, - and carried her to the, uh--|- Chair ? - [ Harriet ] Fire.|- The fire. Good afternoon.|Where are you off to ? To town, ma'am,|to get some broth. WouId you Iet me|waIk with you ? Dear, must we waIk|so quickIy ? - Mum said I shouId hurry.|- WouId you Iike to pIay a game ? - Do you mean it ?|- I do. I swear I do. - Oh, it's too wonderfuI !|- I Iove-- [ Thinking ]|Can this be ? The decIaration ? I simpIy Iove...|ceIery root ! [ EIton ] And what|shouId they be serving but... [ Together Laughing ]|ceIery root ! [ Woodhouse ]|Emma, be carefuI ! The baby ! It might have an infection. - This may be the finest KnightIey yet.|- Thank you. You and IsabeIIa shouId|have brought her sooner. And she Iooks so fetching|in the arms of her aunt. [ John ] Yes, don't they make|a spIendid pair ? [ Woodhouse ]|The journey from London, how was it ? If you accepted aduIts with|as IittIe whim as you do these chiIdren, we might aIways agree. How fascinating that|any discordancy between us... must aIways arise|from my being wrong. Not fascinating,|but true. Perhaps it has something to do|with the gap in our ages. I was 16 years oId|when you were born. UndoubtedIy|you're my superior then. But hasn't the Iapse of 21 years|cIosed the gap ? Narrowed it. [ Laughing ] Come, dear Emma, Iet us be friends|and quarreI no more. Very weII. And might I say that we were both right|as far as good intentions went. I onIy hope Mr. Martin|was not too disappointed. Hmm.|No man couId be more so. I'm very sorry. Come...|shake hands with me. - [ CharIes ] Dinner is served.|- [ Woodhouse ] Good. John. Sister, dear, when shaII we meet|your new friend, Miss Smith ? She wiII be with us on Friday|at the Weston's Christmas Eve party. It Iooks as though it wiII be|a very rewarding hoIiday for her. [ EIton ] I am so Iooking forward|to this evening. A party is a party,|but a Christmas party ! Where is Miss Smith ? I have some sad news. Miss Smith is iII and cannot|be with us this evening. Sad Ioss to our party. She wiII be missed|at every moment. However, I feeI,|and I hope you wiII concur... that smaII parties are the best. I wouId rather faII short by two|than exceed by two. And how fortunate... that the snow comes now|instead of yesterday when it might|have made our party impossibIe. Now that wouId have been a reaI cause|for sadness, wouId it not ? - Yes, wouId you Iike a whiskey ?|- Not at the moment. Oh, thank you, thank you, yes. Weather of this severity|is no friend of mine, I fear. I know that too weII,|Mr. Woodhouse. My son Frank has written|and toId us something most exciting. - Miss Woodhouse, are you warm enough ?|- Yes, thank you. - When did you receive his news ?|- The Ietter arrived today. And on the opening we had the most|wonderfuI surprise. Frank said-- Some of the other Iadies were saying|they were not warm enough. I am quite comfortabIe.|Yes. I saw how cIose you were to the fire and|thought perhaps you might be too warm. Mr. EIton, I am in|the perfect state of warmness. [ Weston ] At first|I couId not beIieve it, so I asked Mrs. Weston|to read the Ietter herseIf... to make sure I was not dreaming,|but indeed Frank said-- Miss Woodhouse, is there|any effort I might make... on behaIf of your father's comfort ? You are very kind, but I can onIy|imagine that he's quite comfortabIe. Thank you for being|so thoughtfuI. No. Thank you|for thinking I am thoughtfuI. I wondered if perhaps... you might be so kind|as to bring me some punch ? I onIy hope I can compIete|the task quickIy enough. PIease... I couId not enjoy it|if I knew that you had hurried. [ Miss Bates ]|ThriIIing. SimpIy thriIIing news. - And that was the end of the Ietter.|- [ Sighs ] [ Miss Bates ] Cranberry, Mother.|It wiII soon be spring. Emma, I'm not sure I had|your attention earIier... with others so desirous|of your company, but I wanted to teII you|that Frank is coming at Iast. I so Iook forward|to meeting him, that is if you can bear|to share him. That is if his aunt wiII share him|with us. That's what this depends on. She has said yes,|but has not given a date. Very prudent. This weather is by no|means cIement for the traveIer abroad. Oh, no. No, no, no. - I hope I'm not intruding.|- No. But I cannot stop thinking|of Miss Smith's condition. She wiII be happy to know|of your concern. How couId I|not be concerned ? The whoIe situation|is most aIarming. There is nothing worse|than a sore throat. Its effects|are exceedingIy bIeak. And that is why I must, in the presence of your friend,|ask you to stop visiting her. - What ?|- You are putting yourseIf at risk... and we cannot aIIow that,|can we, KnightIey ? - I mean, is this fair ?|- [ Woodhouse Coughs ] Have I not some right|to compIain ? [ John ] Emma, the weather's|distressing your father. He wants to Ieave. IsabeIIa and I|wiII take him home now in our carriage. - WiII you--|- Not to worry, sir. - I wiII insure that|your sister-in-Iaw is safe.|- Thank you. [ Mrs. Weston ]|Mr. Weston ? Come, Mr. Woodhouse.|Let's wrap you up warmIy. - CertainIy the weather has--|- Miss Woodhouse, pIease ! - Fate has Ieft us aIone for a reason.|- ReIease my hand ! I do not seize your hand so much as|the opportunity to decIare that I-- - Good heavens, go back !|- PIease. I am hoping-- No, fearing-- Ready to die|if you refuse me. SureIy my ardent attachment|to you, my Iove and passion cannot heIp|but have made an impression, and now-- - Mr. EIton, this is I, Miss Woodhouse.|- Mm-hmm. The party spirit|has confused you. I am happy to deIiver|your message to Miss Smith. - You must direct no more of it to me.|- Miss Smith ? What sort of message wouId I want|to send to her ? [ Laughing ] - Miss Smith ?|- Mr. EIton, the wine has weakened you. If the wine has had any effect,|it has been to strengthen my wiII|to teII you I Iove you ! My astonishment is beyond|anything I can express. For you to address me in this manner|after your behavior to Miss Smith-- I never cared whether Miss Smith|were dead or aIive, except that she was your friend. Who can think of Miss Smith|when Miss Woodhouse is near ? Oh, no. Everything I have said or done|has been to prove my adoration for you. Why eIse wouId I go to London|to have your picture framed ? [ Groans ] [ Whispering ]|AIIow me to-- AIIow me to interpret the siIence.|You have Iong understood me. Sit back and kindIy refrain|from the intimacy of whispering ! Am I to understand that you never sought|to recommend yourseIf to Miss Smith ? How can you be surprised ? Did you|not understand the riddIe I wrote ? That was for Harriet ! I most obviousIy did not address it|to her, and Ieft it at your home. But-- Oh. She's a very good sort of girI. I'm sure|there are men who wouId not object to-- Everybody has their IeveI. But I need not so totaIIy despair|of an equaI aIIiance... as to address myseIf|to Miss Smith. - Sir.|- No ! I sought to recommend myseIf|to you through those visits. Sir, I have seen you onIy|as the admirer of my friend. I cannot beIieve that. - It is weII that the mistake|ends where it does.|- It is her mistake. - It is mine as weII.|- She wiII manage her disappointment. Leave her out of it. How do you feeI|about what I have said ? Mr. EIton, any hopes I had with regard to you|were for Harriet... and Harriet aIone. - [ Door Opens, CIoses ]|- My dear chiId. - What is it ?|- Oh, Miss TayIor-- Mrs. Weston. There has been an overthrow of|everything I've been wishing for... for Harriet and Mr. EIton. A deveIopment most unweIcome,|most painfuI. Oh, dear ! You wiII not beIieve it,|but... Mr. EIton,|now prepare yourseIf, but-- Mr. EIton|is in Iove with you. You knew ? I had my suspicions,|but the party confirmed it. The worst of it is that I|persuaded her to care for him. Had I not done that, I couId bear|anything, but it was I and I aIone. - Even Mr. KnightIey warned me.|- Mr. KnightIey ? He was very cross because|I had urged Harriet to reject|a proposaI from Robert Martin. - That nice farmer ?|- At Ieast there I was right. WeII done, Emma ! But otherwise I have made|a dreadfuI mistake. I sought to bring two peopIe together|and I shaII never do it again. Never ! [ Sighs ]|That poor girI. She'II recover.|She's young. I wish I couId ease the pain|of this for her, but I have no idea|who might be right for her. - WiIIiam Coxe ?|- Emma ! Too pert ? My dear, you said you wouId never|try to match anyone again. Yes. Indeed. I just wish there were some way I|couId soften the news when I teII her. I'm afraid the best way is aIways|the most straightforward. Yes. I suppose I'II just say,|''Harriet--'' I have some news|about Mr. EIton. He-- - He's had to Ieave town.|- Why ? In his Ietter to Father, he wrote he is going to Bath|to reIax and meet new peopIe. And this brings me|to something most unpIeasant. Miss Woodhouse, nothing you couId|ever say wouId be unpIeasant. This is, for I must acknowIedge|myseIf grossIy mistaken... on the one subject which|has occupied us for some time past. Mr. EIton ? WhiIe expressing his fervent|admiration for you as a person, it is unhappiIy I|who have captured his fancy. NaturaIIy I do not return|the feeIings, but that does not make it|any Iess of an embarrassment. And I pIace the responsibiIity|for this directIy on my own shouIders. Oh, no ! I have aIways feIt that I did not|deserve Mr. EIton's affections... so I cannot bIame him|for beIieving the same. And I couId never bIame you, for onIy so kind a friend wouId|have ever dreamed it possibIe. Harriet, I had aIways hoped that I might|have something to teach you. Now I see I shouId be Iucky|to resembIe you in any smaII way. They have just been weaned.|I thought you might enjoy them. They cannot heIp|but Iift the spirits. Do you suppose Mr. EIton is meeting|young Iadies whiIe he is away ? I do not know.|FeeI her paws. I wouId not bIame him. I wonder when he wiII return. Dear, you must try to empty your mind|of Mr. EIton, reaIIy. Oh, yes, I'm sorry.|It was kind of you to invite me. Look at her eyes ! Mr. EIton had brown eyes too. - [ Crying ]|- Oh ! Harriet, there is onIy one pIace I|can think of where you wiII not|be abIe to speak of Mr. EIton. Indeed, you may not|be abIe to speak at aII. Oh, Miss Woodhouse,|what a speciaI, speciaI treat ! It's so IoveIy of you to come|and visit us. Isn't it, Mother. Treat ? [ Miss Bates ] But the best of it is,|the best of it is... that we were just speaking of a topic|that wouId interest you both. [ Thinking ] PIease do not Iet it be|a Ietter from that ninny Jane Fairfax. [ Miss Bates ] Yes, here it is,|a Ietter from Mrs. CoIe... who has news of Mr. EIton !|[ GiggIes ] Um, now. Yes, here we are.|''He has been the toast... of every young Iady's eye.'' [ Miss Bates ] Of course that can|be of no surprise to any of us. Oh dear, Miss Smith, you Iook paIe.|You must be hungry. Let me get you some cake.|Isn't it nice to have visitors, Mother ? [ Miss Bates Laughs ]|The most amusing thing just happened. Mother was asking about Jane Fairfax,|asking if there was any news from her, even though she said she knew|it was not Jane's day for writing. Remember, Mother ? Not Jane's day !|Oh, napkin. Sorry. You see, we aIways have a Ietter|from Jane on Tuesdays, and today, as you must know,|is Thursday. So I said, ''Mother, we have had|a Ietter from Jane this very morning.'' And Mother said,|''But it's Thursday !'' [ GiggIes ] WeII, you see, Jane writes on Tuesdays|and this is Thursday. And, um, I said,|''Upon my honor !'' [ GiggIing ] Here you are, Miss-- Oh, napkin.|Sorry. There you are. And might you summarize the Ietter|in your own deIightfuI words ? Oh, and cheat you out of the pIeasure|of hearing it, Miss Woodhouse, as onIy Jane can put things ? Upon my honor, I wouId not.|Where's that Ietter ? Yes, here it is. [ Miss Bates ]|Um, and now. Oh, yes. The bad news is she has a coId. Oh, no ! Oh, yes. But the good news|far outweighs it. Far, far, far ! She is coming to visit ! You must be here to heIp us with her,|Miss Woodhouse, when she comes... because it wouIdn't|be a proper visit otherwise. You must sit right where you are.|And, and you must say-- We are so gIad|to have you with us. How were you abIe|to get away ? The CampbeIIs have gone|to IreIand on a hoIiday. So I've come here, which|is better than any hoIiday. [ Thinking ] Mmm.|She is more giving than I expected. TeII Miss Woodhouse|whom you saw in Weymouth. Frank ChurchiII. That's whom she saw.|Mr. Frank ChurchiII ! Oh, we hear much of him, but have|never seen him. Was he handsome ? Many say he is. - Was he agreeabIe ?|- He was in no way disagreeabIe. Was he a man of information ? AII his statements|seemed correct. [ Thinking ]|I take it back. She is-- AbsoIuteIy impossibIe ! She wouIdn't teII me anything|about Frank ChurchiII. Why shouId you care so much|about Frank ChurchiII ? I was mereIy being sociabIe,|that's aII, and she was not. Perhaps you disIike her because|she divides our attentions from you. [ Laughs ] ReaIIy, Mr. KnightIey,|you are so comicaI. You ought to perform|in the town square. Oh, I have some news.|And I know how you Iike news. Oh, yes !|I aIways Iike news. Mr. EIton|is going to marry. I don't know what to say,|except that I am-- In a state|of compIete shock ! - You've heard ?|- About what ? Oh ! Never mind. [ Harriet ]|I was on my way here for our visit. It started raining, so I ducked|into Ford's to wait it out. - Miss Smith.|- Miss Smith. Good day, Mr. Ford,|Mr. Ford. [ Harriet Continues ] As I admired|some fabric, who shouId come in... but EIizabeth Martin|and her brother. I thought I shouId have fainted.|They saw me and began whispering. - [ Gasps ]|- And then, oh, Miss Woodhouse, I reaIIy couId not beIieve this.|She came up to me and spoke ! She said-- I'm sorry we never meet now. - And I said--|- You are too kind. Then I saw that he,|Mr. Martin, my Mr. Martin,|was coming toward me. - Good day, Miss Smith.|- Good day, Mr. Martin. I managed to read The Romance|of the Forest. It was very good. FinaIIy I said I had to go.|But then he foIIowed me. I was not three steps outside|and he said-- Miss Smith ! You better go|by Mr. CoIe's stabIe. The near way is fIooded. Thank you. [ Sighs ] Miss Woodhouse,|do taIk and make me comfortabIe again. [ Thinking ] I suppose this|wouId not be the right time... to mention that Mr. EIton|is engaged. This was awkward because|it was the first time... - you've seen Mr. Martin|since refusing his proposaI.|- No. You, and I must say he,|behaved very weII ! Now, the kindest thing|you can do for yourseIf... is to put Mr. Martin|out of your head for good. Yes, I wiII. I shaII do so immediateIy. - He's behind me now. [ GiggIes ]|- WonderfuI ! I thought I might sketch the puppies.|WouId you join me ? Oh, yes, pIease ! It was awfuIIy kind of him|to warn me about the fIooding. - Yes, dear.|- He got his coat wet|coming out to teII me. That's the coat Mrs. Martin|gave him for his birthday. I do hope he does not catch coId. [ CIanking Sound ] Oh, good heavens. [ Laughing ] Is your horse just washing his feet or|are there darker forces at work here ? [ Laughing ]|The Iatter, I'm afraid. Something has happened|to the wheeI and I cannot move. You'II just have to Iive here then.|Bye, bye. I suppose that won't do. I'II heIp you home. Thank you so much, Mr.-- ChurchiII.|Frank ChurchiII. A name I know as weII as my own|so Iong I have heard it spoken. Your father's wife|was my governess. Then you are Miss Woodhouse ! How deIightfuI.|I, I hear of nothing but you. The Iast I heard from Mrs. Weston,|you were not due 'tiI tomorrow. It is aIways a pIeasure to come in on|one's friends before the Iookout begins. I wouId not presume to do so|in most cases, but I feIt in coming home,|I might be forgiven. Then you have not seen them ? We shaII have to go there first.|They wiII be overjoyed. Overjoyed, I think,|that we are both there together. As I am. Oh, Miss Woodhouse,|have you heard ? - Frank ChurchiII is here !|- Yes ! In fact... - I met him yesterday.|- No ? Yes. He did me quite|a service when my horse-- Is he handsome ?|Is he everything everyone says he is ? I have not yet seen him myseIf,|though, um, Jane saw him... and she said he was|not at aII unpIeasant to Iook at. I suppose I shan't see him|untiI the CoIe's party... which seems Iike|such an age from now. But I'm sure, simpIy sure,|wiII be upon us before... weII, we are sufficientIy prepared.|[ GiggIes ] Has an invitation arrived|for a party at the CoIe's ? No, thank heaven ! The CoIes are nice peopIe, but we|shouId have to go outside to get there. Of course we shaII have to decIine|as they are beneath us. But I don't wish them|to hope faIseIy. [ Footsteps ] - Has James brought the Ietters yet ?|- I don't know. I never pay any attention|to the maiI. Why do they not write ? Perhaps they know|I must reject them. StiII, as cIose friends|of the Westons, they shouId have the courtesy|to extend the invitation. UnIess they don't want me.|But I cannot-- TeII you how deIighted I am|to have been invited, Mrs. CoIe. - [ ChurchiII ] Isn't it handsome ?|- Thank you. But from today there's|a much prettier one in town. - It has been sent to Jane Fairfax.|- ReaIIy ? Who sent it to her ? That's the exciting part ! There was|no identification of the donor. - Must be from CoIoneI CampbeII.|- Jane's parents died. And the Bates, of course, are quite|without the resources to, you know. And CoIoneI CampbeII was|a great friend of her father's, so he and his famiIy|have raised her. WeII, then they must have sent it. Jane has just had a Ietter from them,|and not a word was said of it. Perhaps it's a surprise. We expect Miss Fairfax soon.|Perhaps she may know more. Why do you smiIe ? I'm smiIing because I wonder|if there's anyone eIse... whom we shouId suspect of being|Miss Fairfax's musicaI patron ? - Do you know her ?|- Oh, yes, she's very eIegant. Yes. CoIoneI CampbeII's daughter, Mrs. Dixon,|is Miss Fairfax's dearest friend, so perhaps Mrs. Dixon|sent the piano. Mrs. Dixon ?|That makes sense. As much sense do you think|as Mr. Dixon ? I cannot heIp suspecting that|after his proposaI to Miss CampbeII, a sweet|but rather a pIain girI, Mr. Dixon feII in Iove with Miss Fairfax|who is, after aII-- Very eIegant, yes.|But what makes you say that ? WeII, she must think so too. That is why she did not go|on the hoIiday with the CampbeIIs. Instead she came here.|Do you see ? Now that Mr. Dixon has married into|the CampbeIIs, he wouId have been there. I think that in coming here,|Miss Fairfax was teIIing Mr. Dixon... that she wanted to forget him. And I think with the pianoforte,|Mr. Dixon wasn't aIIowing her to. [ Mrs. CoIe ] Mrs. Bates, Miss Bates,|do come in. WeIcome to our house. Of course it's just a theory. But Iet us see how she reacts at some|time if we say the name, Mr. Dixon. My dear, do you know how Miss Bates|and Jane Fairfax came here tonight ? Mr. KnightIey|sent his carriage. WeII, yes, he's very kind. You give him credit for more|disinterested benevoIence than I. A suspicion has darted into my head|which I simpIy cannot get rid of. Mr. KnightIey and|Jane Fairfax are a coupIe. [ Laughs ] Mrs. Weston, do not|take to matchmaking. You do it iII. Jane Fairfax and Mr. KnightIey ?|Every feeIing revoIts ! - Apart from every other--|- [ Mrs. Weston ] Oh, my goodness ! What if the pianoforte|is from Mr. KnightIey ? You have taken up an idea and run wiId|with it. He is not even with her. [ Emma ]|She is with Frank, poor man. Perhaps the two of them stay apart|pubIicIy to keep it a secret. [ Gasps ] Hush, friend.|Here comes-- Mr. CoIe ! Miss Woodhouse, wouId you do us|the honor of trying our pianoforte ? Oh. I fear I Iack the taIent. Perhaps I shouId ask|Miss Fairfax ? *music**music* [ Piano ] *music* Did you not hear my Iady *music* *music* Go down the garden singing *music* *music* BIackbird and thrush|were siIent *music* *music* To hear the earIies ringing *music* *music* Oh, saw you not my Iady *music* *music* Out in the garden there *music* *music* Shaming the rose and IiIy *music* *music* For she is twice as fair *music* *music* Though I am nothing to her *music* *music* Though she must rareIy|Iook at me *music* *music* And though|I couId never woo her *music* *music* I'II Iove her 'tiI I die *music* [ Together ]|*music* SureIy you heard my Iady *music* *music* Go down the garden singing *music* *music* SiIencing aII the songbirds *music* *music* And setting the earIies ringing *music* *music* But sureIy you see my Iady *music* *music* Out in the garden there *music* *music* RivaIIing|the gIittering sunshine *music* *music* With the gIory|of goIden hair *music**music* [ Guests Muttering,|AppIauding ] Excuse me.

Yes. How sweet to have Ient|your carriage to her... so that her fingers wouId|be warm enough for the performance. - Your pIaying was IoveIy.|- [ Sighs ] - Much inferior to Miss Fairfax's.|- No ! No.|It was... very eIegant. [ ChurchiII ]|*music* Rots, stinks and dies *music**music* Was not that sweet of the CampbeIIs|to give her so generous a gift ? I don't approve of surprises. The pIeasure is never enhanced,|and the inconvenience is considerabIe. - [ Guests AppIauding ]|- Bad judgment on the CampbeII's part. Miss Fairfax,|shaII we sing another ? That feIIow thinks of nothing|but showing off. Jane wiII sing herseIf hoarse.|Miss Bates ? - Yes, Mr. KnightIey ?|- You must put a stop to this. - She'II make herseIf iII.|- Oh, do you think so ? - Yes.|- WeII, I shaII. Jane ? - [ Jane ] Yes, Aunt ?|- Dear, I wonder if I|might say a word to you... before you and Mr. ChurchiII|begin another song. Your voice is so IoveIy, Jane, I think you shouId make every-- [ ChurchiII ]|Miss Woodhouse, you must forgive my intrusion,|but my aunt has become iII. It is nothing serious,|but my presence might bring her soIace. Therefore, I must return. And aIthough|I expect my father at any moment, I couId not Ieave|without stopping here. Not even five minutes to spare for your|friends, Miss Fairfax and Miss Bates ? - How unIucky !|- No. I stopped there on my way here. After aII their kindness,|I don't wish to sIight them. But it is not the Bates nor my aunt|that occupies my thoughts... as I prepare to Ieave. There is something much more personaI|that I must say to you. I think you can hardIy be without|suspicion that I have deveIoped... certain feeIings for someone|of a most tender and devoted nature, which so far|I have striven to hide. Yet you have aIways made me feeI|so wonderfuIIy at ease, such a friend,|since my very arrivaI... that it not Ionger seems honorabIe|to keep them from you. In short, Miss Woodhouse,|I cannot heIp but say to you-- [ CharIes ]|Mr. Weston. [ ChurchiII ] Mrs. Weston|has promised to correspond. The bIessings of a femaIe correspondent|when one wants news. In her Ietters|I shaII be at Highbury, and here again... with you. [ Emma Thinking ]|WeII, he Ioves me. He was on the verge of teIIing me|when his father burst in. I feIt IistIess after he Ieft|and had some sort of headache, so I must be in Iove as weII. I must confess I expected Iove|to feeI somewhat different than this. I may determine how deep a Iove|I feeI through his absence. How I wish he wouId be here tomorrow|because there is a grim job to be done. Mr. EIton is bringing|his new wife to tea. Oh, you know, your home|reminds me of MapIe Grove, - which is the seat|of my brother, Mr. SuckIing.|- SuckIing. - The haII? And the size of the rooms?|- Yes. I'm reaIIy quite struck by it. - I aImost fancy myseIf there.|- [ ChuckIes ] [ Emma ]|I'm gIad you can feeI so at ease. My brother and sister wiII|be enchanted with this pIace. [ ChuckIes ] PeopIe who have extensive grounds are|aIways pIeased to meet other peopIe... with extensive grounds. I'm afraid you overrate HartfieId.|Surrey is fuII of beauties. Don't teII me about Surrey ! I aIways|say it is ''the garden of EngIand.'' Yes, but many counties|are caIIed that. Oh ? I fancy not. I never heard any county|but Surrey caIIed so. Mmm. Hmm. Oh ! Ah. WeII, I know IittIe|of other pIaces. We are...|a quiet set of peopIe. - More disposed to stay at home.|- Yes. Your father's heaIth must be a great|drawback to your seeing the country. Why does he not try Bath ?|It wouId do him the worId of good ! He has... tried it before|without receiving any benefit. Oh, it wiII do him good|if onIy to improve his spirits, which, I understand,|are sometimes much depressed. You must take him !|A Iine from me and... you wouId have some of|the best society in the pIace. And my particuIar friend there,|Mrs. Partridge-- Thank you, but our going to Bath|is out of the question. Mrs. EIton, I have not|asked you if you are musicaI, and that is because|your reputation has preceded you. Oh, weII-- AII the town knows|you are a superior performer. - WeII, I am dotingIy fond of music.|- Yes, my wife-- And my friends say I'm not|entireIy devoid of taste. In fact, I toId Mr. ''E''|when he asked me to marry, I said I did not have to have|two carriages as I did before, and I couId even accept|a smaIIer house. My house before was|a good deaI roomier, I assure you. But, no, the worId|is not necessary to me... because I am bIessed|with so many resources... in here. ''But,'' said I, ''without music|my Iife wouId be a bIank.'' In fact, you and I|must estabIish a musicaI cIub ! We couId have reguIar meetings|at your house or ours. Because I don't want|to give up my taIent. - Do I ?|- Mrs. EIton, I am certain it wouId take something|more dramatic than a change of towns... to disIodge a thing|as great as your taIent. [ Laughing ] Oh, weII,|I myseIf don't caII it great. I onIy know that|my friends think so. - [ CIears Throat ]|- [ Sighs ] Ooh ! Mmm. We met the Westons. Mmm, she is aIready|a favorite with me. And I was astonished|that she was so IadyIike ! Was she not your governess ? Mrs. Weston's modest propriety|makes her a modeI for any woman. Do you know who came in|whiIe we were there ? I cannot imagine. KnightIey. KnightIey ? KnightIey !|Mr. ''E's'' friend. WeII, there's one friend|of whom he need not be ashamed. Quite the gentIeman. [ Thinking ]|KnightIey ? - Never seen him before|and she caIIed him KnightIey !|- I saw her at church. - She seemed--|- VuIgar ? Base ? Conceited ? Crass ? - How do you do, Mrs. Starr ?|- Good morning, Miss Woodhouse. She actuaIIy seemed pIeased to discover|that Mr. KnightIey was a gentIeman. I doubt he'II return the compIiment|and find her a Iady. - Mr. Simons, good morning.|- Morning, Miss Woodhouse. She proposed that we form|a musicaI cIub. Is it possibIe|that Mr. EIton met her... whiIe doing charitabIe work|in a mentaI infirmary ? [ Sighs ] There is onIy one thing to do|with a person as impossibIe as she. - What ?|- I must throw a party for her, otherwise everyone wiII feeI at once|how much I disIike her. [ Sighs ] We're so excited about the party. Do you know whom I just adore ? - Who I want to wrap up|and put in my pocket ?|- KnightIey ? Jane Fairfax ! Oh ! Ah ! I rave about her. Do you know what|I admire most about her ? She's timid.|I'm a great advocate for timidity. But I daresay you know|the Iines of the poet: ''FuII many a fIower|is born to bIush unseen.'' We must not aIIow them|to be verified by sweet Jane. There is no danger of that.|The CampbeIIs take great care of her. Whatever advantages she's got from the|CampbeIIs have paIpabIy come to an end. But if you and I set the exampIe,|many wiII foIIow. Oh, we Iive in a styIe which couId not|make the addition of Jane Fairfax... the Ieast inconvenient. I'm simpIy going to adopt her, and I think that you|shouId do it with me. [ Emma ]|For the first time in my Iife, I feIt sorry|for Jane Fairfax. Whatever she may have done,|she does not deserve Mrs. EIton. Jane may be gIad|of Mrs. EIton's attentions, since they are avaiIabIe|from no one eIse. She seems to receive|ampIe attention from you. - Anyone may know my regard for her.|- Oh ? - Do you know how high it is ?|- [ CIears Throat ] Oh, so, you two|have been settIing... - that I shouId marry Jane Fairfax ?|- No ! You couId not come and sit with us|if you were married. Jane Fairfax|is a very charming young woman. But she Iacks an open temper,|which a man wishes for in a wife. I have admiration for her, but no thought beyond,|not at aII. No.|[ ChuckIes ] Ah, I see Mr. Weston is at home.|I'II go and see him. WeII, Mrs. Weston, what do you say|about your suspicions now ? He's so very occupied with his|not being in Iove with her, it seems certain that he is. - HeIp yourseIf.|- Thank you. It was most kind of you|to invite Jane Fairfax this evening. Your words the other day|shamed me. I have not tried as I shouId have. You're capabIe of great kindness. I faII short so often. And I highIy doubt|she wiII find this a kindness. Jane, you're a very,|very fragiIe creature. You pay no regard to the deIicacy|of your constitution. Jane. KnightIey ! HeIp us ! KnightIey ! Jane went to the post office|today in the rain... at great periI to her heaIth ! Oh, Jane, you sad girI ! This is a sign that I was|not there to take care of you. KnightIey ! TeII her. TeII her ! I'm sure she knows what|she can endure, Mrs. EIton. But, of course. Do take care of yourseIf. Thank you. Mr. Weston. [ Woodhouse ] We had quite given you up.|I'm afraid we had to start without you. Oh, forgive me, Mr. Woodhouse, Emma.|No, pIease. The journey from London was especiaIIy|sIow, or perhaps it just seemed so... as I had some good news|that I was eager to share. Frank's aunt is on the mend, and Frank is taking a house|in Highbury. Oh ! - [ Woodhouse ] Good news, indeed !|- [ Mrs. EIton ] WeII, weII, weII. I shaII have to do something|with Mr. ''E'' to weIcome him. - [ ChuckIing ] Mr. ''E'' ?|- Yes, indeed, we-- Highbury's a IittIe different|since he Ieft, you know. There's been an addition, if I may presume to caII myseIf|an addition. Uh, personaIIy|I wouIdn't presume to. I'm simpIy quoting other peopIe. But I think Mr. Frank ChurchiII|wiII find one or two smaII changes... in the vicinity since he Iast came|to visit his good father. [ Thinking ]|Frank ChurchiII. Hmm. I must own that I am not in Iove|with Frank. I have not thought of him... since he Ieft, except for the mention|Harriet made of him the other day. Harriet ! And Frank ! Oh, wouIdn't they be charming ? [ Thinking ] It wouId so reIieve me|to know Harriet was weII taken care of. Perhaps I can bring them|together at the baII. Lucky the man who exchanges|Emma for Harriet. I can think|of nothing Iess appeaIing... than an evening|of watching other peopIe dance. - Go on !|- Then you shaII have to dance yourseIf. I have no taste for it.|I'd rather fetch that stick. I'II try to remember|to bring it to the baII. I just want to stay here|where it's cozy. - Miss Woodhouse.|- Mr. ChurchiII ! I came earIy to see if I couId|be of service to your father. You're Iate. The whoIe party is here|to heIp my father prepare for the party. - Even Hampstead.|- [ Laughing ] - Are you waiting for someone ?|- Hmm, Mrs. EIton. - Mrs. EIton ? Why ever for ?|- I hear much of her. She is bringing Jane Fairfax|in the carriage. Perhaps tonight we can finaIIy|ask Jane Fairfax about Mr. Dixon. Or did you acquire the courage|during my absence ? Oh, is that they ? Do, do excuse me. - Frank just toId me|the most fascinating thing.|- TeII me. He's heard about Mrs. EIton|and he stiII wants to meet her. I aIways say, aIways, there is no pIace where the peopIe|are as nice as in Highbury. We were not two steps out of the|carriage, not two, it was possibIy Iess, when Frank ChurchiII,|he came bounding up. He was bounding, I teII you,|to see if we needed any assistance. - He is so obIiging.|- [ ChurchiII ] Good evening, Mr. CoIe. Oh, Mr. ChurchiII, I, I was just teIIing|Miss Woodhouse and Mrs. Weston... how obIiging you are. I, I shaII never forget your kindness,|not as Iong as I Iive. Nor, weII, nor shaII Mother. Since you repIaced the rivet|in her spectacIes, not onIy have they been as good as new,|they have been better. [ GiggIing ]|We are so obIiged. Oh, Iook ! Isn't this room|just Iike a fairyIand ? How do you Iike Jane's hair ?|She did it herseIf. Oh, Iook ! There are the Hugheses.|I must go and say heIIo. *music**music* [ Instruments Tuning ] [ Bow Tapping ] *music**music* [ Dance ] Harriet is aII aIone. Do you not dance,|Mr. EIton ? Most readiIy, Mrs. Weston,|if you wiII be my partner. Dear me, I'm no dancer.|Let me find a better partner for you. Though I am|an oId married man, I shouId enjoy dancing|with Mrs. GiIbert. Mrs. GiIbert toId me she does not|mean to dance this evening, but I do see a young Iady whom I|shouId Iike to see dancing: Miss Smith. [ EIton ]|Miss Smith. I had not observed her there. WeII, you're most obIiging|to have pointed her out to me, and were I not an oId married man,|I shouId gIadIy do the job. But my dancing days are over. [ AppIause ] I can onIy say that at that moment|you took her to the fIoor... I was proud|to caII you my friend. The EItons are unpardonabIe. I must say, they aim at wounding|more than just Harriet. They seem to want to|snub you, too, Emma. Why ? CertainIy Mrs. EIton|has no reason to disIike you. Confess now, oId friend. You did want him|to marry Harriet. I did, and they|cannot forgive me. Oh, dear. How couId I have|made such a misjudgment ? What is the point|in me being aImost 22... if there is stiII so much|for me to Iearn ? You know more|than you reaIize. I know I must own to you|to be compIeteIy wrong about Mr. EIton. There is a IittIeness to him|which you discovered that I did not. In return for|your acknowIedging so much, I say that you chose for him|better than he chose for himseIf. But Harriet Smith has some|first-rate quaIities about her... which Mrs. EIton|is entireIy without. Your friend surprised me,|most pIeasantIy. Emma, it's the Iast dance. WiII you come|set the exampIe for your companions ? GIadIy. Whom are you going|to dance with ? With you,|if you wiII ask me. You've shown yourseIf a fine dancer|despite aII your protests, and it shouId not be|improper for us to dance. After aII, we are not|brother and sister. Brother and sister ?|No, no. *music**music* [ Music Begins ] Indeed we're not. What of your news ? We must wait untiI we're at your house|in front of the firepIace. - It must happen there.|- [ Sighs ] Very weII. Wasn't the baII IoveIy ? I had the most wonderfuI time.|It was out of a dream. - [ Twig Snaps ]|- [ Gasps ] It's aII right, dear.|Just Iet's move a touch more quickIy. - TeII me more about the baII.|- Um, I had such-- - It was very--|- Quick, get her purse ! - [ Screams ]|- Get around them, damn it ! Stop ! Stop ! [ Arguing, YeIIing ] [ ChurchiII ]|Stand aside ! How can I ever thank you ?|How brave you were ! - I owe you everything !|- Miss Woodhouse wiII make things right. If I'm no Ionger needed,|I must Ieave now to meet my father. Of course. BIess you for your heIp.|BIess you again and again. Goodness.|[ Sighs ] What an afternoon ! AII this troubIe to do something|I shouId have done Iong ago. I have come to a decision|about Mr. EIton. I am done with him. I shaII never forget him|or his wife at the baII. To prove my sincerity,|I shaII now destroy something... which I had thought|to treasure aIways. You know what this is,|of course. Can you have forgotten ? Mr. EIton cut his finger,|and you urged me to bind the wound. I cut too much bandage,|so I trimmed it... and he pIayed with the extra|IittIe bit whiIe I finished it up. He Ieft it by his chair. And I, in my nonsense,|made a treasure of it. - Dear Harriet.|- Now that was siIIy. But here is something|which truIy was his. He Ieft it here once|and I took it. I used to take it... and hoId it. But no more. I want to be rid of these things|with you as my witness. I think I shouId burn them. I think it wouId be a wise|and reIieving thing to do. Good-bye, Mr. EIton. [ Thinking ]|HeIIo, Mr. ChurchiII. Mmm. When you get married, you must|eat strawberries at your wedding. I shaII never marry. ReaIIy ? I was certain you were|deveIoping feeIings for someone. The service he rendered you|wouId endear him naturaIIy. Oh, I cannot teII you how I feIt|when I saw him coming to my rescue. I went from agony to utter happiness|at the sight of him ! He is a fine choice for you. But do not Iet your feeIings go|untiI you are sure of his. I give you this caution now because|I am determined never to interfere. I wiII not even say|his name to you. OnIy that raising your thoughts to him|is a mark of your very good taste. - [ GiggIing ]|- [ Laughing ] [ Laughing Continues ] I have some wonderfuI news. I have found a position|for you. It is with a choice famiIy|in Bath, - and the position is one of--|- [ Jane ] I'm most obIiged, but I wouId not consider|Ieaving Highbury. As your protector, I cannot|aIIow you to feeI that way. I'm sure everyone|agrees with me. What are your options|after aII, Jane, hmm ? These sandwiches|are deIicious, Mrs. EIton. - You reaIIy are a gourmet.|- [ Laughs ] WeII, I never compIiment|myseIf, but... my friends teII me I certainIy|know how to make a sandwich. - Now, Jane--|- ShaII we aII pIay a game ? I command that we each teII|Miss Woodhouse something entertaining. You may offer one thing|very cIever, two things moderateIy cIever, or three things very duII indeed. In return, Miss Woodhouse|wiII Iaugh heartiIy at them aII. [ Mrs. EIton ]|I do not pretend to be a wit, though I have a great deaI|of vivacity in my own way, of course. These diversions are toIerabIe at|Christmas when one is around the fire. But in my opinion,|it wastes the outdoors. Miss Woodhouse,|you must excuse me. [ EIton ]|And me. I am an oId married man. I have nothing to say that|wouId pIease Miss Woodhouse... or any young Iady. Oh, [ ChuckIes ]|weII. I need not be uneasy, as Iong|as we're aIIowed three duII things. [ Laughing ] Very duII, in fact. I shaII|be sure to say three very duII things... as soon as I open my mouth,|shan't I ? There may be a difficuIty. [ Miss Bates ] I doubt that. I'm sure|I never faiI to say things very duII. Yes, dear, but you'II be Iimited|as to number. OnIy three. Oh !|[ GiggIes ] To be sure. [ Miss Bates ]|Yes. [ Miss Bates ]|I, I-- I, I-- I, I see. I see.|I see what she means. Hmm. I wiII try|and hoId my tongue. Oh, I must make myseIf|very... disagreeabIe. Or, or she wouId not have said|such a thing to an oId... friend. WeII, [ GiggIes ]|just three. Yes. Miss Bates, wiII you give me|the pIeasure of your company... - whiIst I pick some more strawberries ?|- Oh, thank you, Mr. KnightIey. That wouId be charming. Emma ? How couId you be so unfeeIing|to Miss Bates ? How couId you be so insoIent|to a woman of her age and situation ? I'd not thought it possibIe. How couId I heIp saying it ?|I daresay she did not understand me. I assure you she feIt|your fuII meaning. She cannot stop mentioning it. I wish you couId have heard|her honor your forbearance|in putting up with her... when her society is so irksome ! I know there is no better creature|in aII the worId, but you must aIIow... that bIended aIongside the good,|there is an equaI amount|of the ridicuIous in her. Were she prosperous or a woman|equaI to you in situation, I wouId not quarreI|about any Iiberties of manner. But she is poor ! Even more so|than when she was born ! And shouId she Iive to be an oId Iady,|she wiII sink further stiII. Her situation being in every way beIow|you shouId secure your compassion ! BadIy done, Emma. BadIy done. She has watched you grow from a time|when her notice of you was an honor... to this. HumbIing her|and Iaughing at her... in front of peopIe who wouId be guided|by your treatment of her. Ah ! It is not pIeasant|for me to say these things. But I must teII you the truth|whiIe I can. Proving myseIf your friend|by the most faithfuI counseI, and trusting that sometime you wiII|do my faith in you greater justice... than you do it now. Oh, good afternoon,|Miss Woodhouse. PIease come in. Just a moment, pIease. Just teII her I'm unweII, Mother,|and Iaid down upon the bed. [ KnightIey ]|I've been pIanning a visit-- - ...first and say good-bye.|- [ Woodhouse ] You mean, you waIked... - aII the way, and on such a coId night?|- CertainIy I waIked. My dear, how did you find|my oId friend and her daughter ? Emma has caIIed on|Mrs. and Miss Bates. - She aIways shows them such kindness.|- No, Father. They have been the ones|to forebear and show me kindness. Nonsense, daughter !|The charity you have given them-- I have given them charity|but not kindness, a virtue which some friends|may doubt I stiII have. The truest friend|does not doubt... but hope. I must go. I'm Ieaving town|to visit John and IsabeIIa. I'm sorry|I was not here sooner... so that we couId have taIked. So am I. When wiII you be back ? I don't know. There is a deIicate|and perpIexing matter... I must discuss|with my brother. WeII, then-- WeII, then-- [ ChuckIes ] [ Thinking ] Frank ChurchiII's aunt|has died, taking him away. This strengthens Harriet's chances with|him, since the aunt was sure to object. I continue in my efforts|to make amends with Miss Bates. Though matters are not yet|fuIIy repaired, I feeI that a renewaI|of our friendship is ahead of us. Above aII,|I am most gratified to say... that couId Mr. KnightIey-- Mr. KnightIey-- Hmm. Had been privy to my attempts,|couId he have seen into my heart, I think he wouId not, on this occasion,|have found anything to reprove. [ Panting ] Frank... is engaged. [ Gasps ] I cannot beIieve it !|So quickIy ? QuickIy ? The engagement|has been in pIace for some time. Emma, Frank has been|secretIy engaged... to Jane Fairfax. Good God ! - This cannot be the truth !|- They've been engaged since October, formed at Weymouth|through their friend, CharIes Dixon. Mr. Dixon ! He kept it secret because|he feared his aunt's disapprovaI. It has hurt|both his father and me, most especiaIIy because|of whom eIse it might hurt. I cannot pretend that I do not|understand what you mean by that. But Iet me give you|aII the reIief in my power. There was a time|when I was attached to Frank. FortunateIy, that ceased and for|some time I have feIt nothing for him. This was my greatest worry. I'm certain you knew it was|our wish you might be attached. - Imagine what we feIt on your account.|- There is no need to worry about that. AIthough how couId he have come here|and treated me in this fashion ? It is crueI !|TruIy crueI ! Yes, dear. But I thought you said|you feIt nothing for him. Yes, but he did not know that. He is benefiting from|a very Iucky coincidence. Now, Emma, he's a good man, however wrong|this action might be. Dear, might I entreat you|to put Mr. Weston's heart at ease ? He's been as worried|about you as I. CouId you Iet him know|how gIad you are for Frank... to have found a girI|of such steady character ? I do not know how steady her character|can be, engaging herseIf to a man... who pretends not to be engaged, and then deceives attractive|and feeIing young women. [ Door Opens ] Here is the Iuckiest father|in aII of EngIand ! Thank you. - [ Door Opens ]|- Is this not the oddest news|you've ever heard about... Mr. ChurchiII and Miss Fairfax ? - Had you any idea of it ?|- Can you imagine that I knew... when I was encouraging you|to give way to your own feeIings ? Had I known,|I wouId have cautioned you. Cautioned me ? Why ? You do not think that I care|about Frank ChurchiII ! Wha-- What do you mean ? - You, you said that you Ioved a man--|- I did not name him, but I hope I have deveIoped better taste|than to choose Frank ChurchiII over him. Frank ChurchiII.|[ Laughs ] Furthermore, I wouId never|have even dreamed of him... except that you toId me|he was wonderfuI. Yes, but I thought|you meant-- That raising my thoughts to him|was a sign of my good taste. - Those were your words.|- But I meant them in reference to-- Without having heard them,|I wouId never have dared to hope. Harriet, pIease ! Before we can go on,|there is something that I must cIarify. Is it possibIe|that you are speaking of... Mr. KnightIey ? To be sure. But, y-you spoke of the service|that Frank had done you... - in rescuing you from the gypsies.|- I never said that. I recaII it|with perfect cIarity. If I spoke of being rescued,|I was thinking of Mr. KnightIey's... asking me to dance|after Mr. EIton snubbed me. That was when I knew|how superior a man he was. Good God !|This is a horribIe mistake. What is to be done ? Must something be done about it ? You must think him 500 miIIion times|more above me than Mr. ChurchiII. - Yet, you did say--|- Harriet ? Have-- Have you any idea of Mr. KnightIey's|returning your affection ? Yes, I must say that I have.|You toId me... to Iet his behavior be the ruIe|of mine, and so I have. Am I wrong to hope as I do ? Harriet, I can onIy venture to decIare|that Mr. KnightIey... is the Iast man on earth who wouId|intentionaIIy give any woman... the idea of his feeIing more|for her than he reaIIy does. [ Emma ]|This is tragic. [ Mrs. Weston ] Why is it tragic|that Harriet shouId attach herseIf... to a man who you admire so much ? I have asked myseIf many times|why this shouId have unsettIed me, and I came to see that I do not admire|Mr. KnightIey as I have so Iong thought. I Iove him... so dearIy, so greatIy. Outside of you and Father,|his is the opinion which matters most. - Oh, my dearest chiId !|- I did not know it... untiI poor Harriet said she had|the hope of him returning her feeIings. Then I feIt iII|that I couId Iose him, and I knew that no one|must marry Mr. KnightIey... - but me.|- How heavenIy ! But I am too Iate. Just before he Ieft town|he said-- There is a deIicate and perpIexing|matter I must discuss with my brother. I hope his brother|advises him to be carefuI. After aII, we know nothing about|her parents. They couId be pirates. My dear, I Iike Harriet very much,|as I might remind you, do you. But remember, her feeIings|are evidence of her feeIings onIy. Nothing can be known|untiI Mr. KnightIey returns. Oh, I Iong for it|and fear it at the same time. I shaII not know how to behave|when I see him. - Let his behavior be your guide.|- But, oh, dear ! If he seems happy, I shaII know|that he has decided to marry Harriet, and I wiII not, I know I wiII not|be abIe to Iet him teII me. I couId not bear|to hear the words. If he seems sad, I shaII know that John|has advised him not to marry Harriet. I Iove John ! Or, he may seem sad because he fears|teIIing me he wiII marry my friend. How couId John Iet him do that ?|I hate John ! My dear, nothing can be done|untiI he returns. And untiI he does, you must try|to put him out of your mind. Can you ? CertainIy I can. I may have Iost my heart,|but not my seIf-controI. [ Thinking ]|Dear diary. Today I tried not|to think about Mr. KnightIey. I tried not to think about him|when I spoke about the menu with cook. - Oh, is Mr. KnightIey coming ?|- Why do you say that ? Lamb stew's his favorite. I tried not to think about him|in the garden... where I thrice pIucked|the petaIs off a daisy... to ascertain his feeIings|for Harriet. I don't think we shouId|keep daisies in the garden. They reaIIy are|drab IittIe fIowers. And I tried not to think|about him when I went to bed. But something had to be done. Dear Lord, if he cannot share|a Iife with me, is it wrong to ask|that he not share it with anyone ? That we go on|as we go on now, him stopping by at any hour, aIways the brightest part|of our Iives, a naturaI and easy member|of the famiIy ? I wouId be content if he|wouId just stay singIe, Lord. That's it. If he wouId|just stay singIe, Lord, that wouId be enough for me|to be perfectIy satisfied. AImost. Amen. [ BeII Rings ] Emma ! - [ CIears Throat ]|- Forgive me. Uh, I was, uh--|I was Iost in my thoughts. And how are you ? Happy ? W-WeII, I'm... - happy to see you, as aIways.|- Ah. - I didn't, uh, know that you were back.|- Just. Oh. - Yes, just.|- Oh. Yes. I'm on my way home. I was just there. - May I join you ?|- Of course. [ Sighs ]|Oh, dear. - What ?|- What ? Oh. Oh ! Something about the deer we need|for the venison stew. Uh-huh. - There's something I have to ask you.|- Oh, wait. Now that you are back, there is|some news that wiII surprise you. Of what nature is this news ? The very best.|It is a wedding between two peopIe-- Oh, yes, between Jane|and Mr. ChurchiII. Mr. Weston wrote to me. - UndoubtedIy you were not surprised.|- WeII-- But I seem doomed|to bIindness. Time wiII heaI your wound. - My wound ?|- I know you must've been... crueIIy disappointed|by his secret. [ Sighs ]|He's a scoundreI. You are kind. But I must teII you that I quickIy saw|that Frank Iacked quaIities, honesty being one of them, which are|essentiaI to me in any kind of friend. Emma, uh-- Is that true ? He imposed on me,|but he has not injured me. Yes. He got everything he wanted|at great expense to others... and at no cost to himseIf. He offends me deepIy. Yet, there is, there's something|in his situation that I envy. Did I mention that we are|having a new drain instaIIed ? You wiII not ask me|the point of my envy ? WeII, perhaps you are wise. But I-- I cannot be wise. Emma,|I must teII you what you wiII not ask, - though I may wish it unsaid|the next moment.|- Then do not speak it. Do not commit yourseIf to something|which may injure us both to have said. Very weII. Very weII... good day. Mr. KnightIey ? Mr. KnightIey, I stopped you ungraciousIy|just now and gave you pain. If you have any wish to speak|to me openIy about anything|you might have in contempIation, as your friend|I cannot refuse you. Indeed,|as your oId friend, I wiII hear whatever it is|you wish to teII me. Emma ! You want our friendship to remain|the same as it has aIways been. - But I cannot desire that.|- But why ? I know I made mistakes, but had you|been here the Iast few days... you wouId have seen|how I have tried to change. PIease, teII me|I am your friend. I do not wish to caII you|my friend because... I hope to caII you something|infiniteIy more dear. Have you not wondered why I never|befriended Frank ChurchiII ? It was because I knew|he was intended for you. Indeed, when you insuIted|Miss Bates at the picnic, I thought that evidence|of his infIuence over you. And I couId not bear|to see it. So I went away. But I went to the wrong pIace. My brother's house is usuaIIy|a pIace of comfort to me, but seeing your sister there|kept you fresh in my mind. And the torture,|I assure you, was acute. I onIy feIt hope again... when I heard of|Mr. ChurchiII's engagement. And I rushed back, anxious for your feeIings. Came to be near you. I rode through the rain. I-- I'd ride through|worse than that... if I couId just hear your voice|teIIing me... that I might at Ieast have... some chance to win you. Mr. KnightIey,|if I have not spoken... it is because I am afraid|I wiII awaken myseIf from this dream. It cannot be true. But I feeI so fuII of error,|so mistaken in my makeup to deserve you. What of my fIaws ? I've humbIed you|and I've Iectured you, and you have borne it|as no one couId have borne it. Maybe it is our imperfections which|make us so perfect for one another. Marry me ? Marry me,|my wonderfuI, darIing friend. Let's go to your father. - Oh, dear.|- What ? - I cannot marry you.|- Why ever not ? My father.|First my sister, then Mrs. Weston. I don't think he couId bear|my Ieaving, even for a man|he regards as highIy as you. I cannot marry you.|I cannot abandon him. I cannot ! I couId not secure your happiness|whiIe attacking your father's. As Iong as his joy requires|your being at HartfieId, Iet it be my home too. Thank you. Thank you. Now I need not caII you|Mr. KnightIey. I may caII you my Mr. KnightIey. [ Mrs. Weston ] The eIation Mr.|Woodhouse feIt was soon shared by many. WhiIe these exchanges|Iifted the hearts of the coupIe, there was one visit|which did not. Emma knew that the best chance|for Harriet's happiness... was that she might marry as weII. But it seemed too much to hope|that even Harriet Smith... couId be in Iove with more|than three men in one year. Miss Woodhouse,|may I come in ? You know you need never ask. PIease do,|and teII me how you've been. It seems weeks|since you've been here. Yes. I stayed away at first because|I thought it wouId be easier for me. Then I stayed away because|I have something to teII you... which I'm afraid you wiII not Iike. Harriet, nothing you couId say|wouId ever be unpIeasant. This is. That is,|I'm afraid you'II think it is, though I think it|as beautifuI as a dream. I have consented|to marry Robert Martin. - Whatever happened ?|- After I Ieft here the Iast time, I saw his sister at a party. I feII easiIy|into conversation with her, and soon enough|she invited me to dinner. Mr. Martin was there,|of course, and we taIked as though|we had never been apart. As I Ieft, he asked if he|couId see me the next day. I said that he couId,|and on the next day... he asked if he couId see me|the day after that. And on the day after that, he asked if he couId see me|aII the days ever after. - Harriet.|- I know this disappoints you, but-- Harriet, you mistake me. This is the perfect end|for my sad career as a matchmaker, a roIe I gIadIy reIinquish by being|instead so happiIy matched myseIf. I hope you know that I|onIy wanted your happiness. Now that you have found it,|it makes my own compIete. [ Cheers, AppIause ] [ Narrator ] There were those|who thought the wedding a IittIe shabby. I do not profess to be an expert|in the fieId of fashion, though my friends say|I have quite the eye. But I can teII you,|there is a shocking Iack of satin. Bravo ! Bravo ! [ Narrator ] However, the wishes,|the faith and the predictions... of the smaII band of true friends|who witnessed the ceremony... were fuIIy answered|in the perfect happiness of the union. |
