GOLDENROD REVISIONS 20.10.09 9.
At an upstairs window we can see Beth hold a dress up to
herself and then abandon the idea.
TESS:
Did it sell?
GLEN:
Well my kind of books aren’t about
sales. I mean that’s not why I
write. So... no.
TESS:
What are you working on next?
Upstairs, through a window, we see Beth is putting on a
blouse.
17 INT. EVENING. STONEFIELD. BETH’S BEDROOM. 17
Beth is looking at herself in a cheval mirror. She’s full of
hope that Nicholas will take her out - and dread that he’ll
find some excuse.
18 EXT. EVENING. STONEFIELD. THE GROUNDS (PATIO). 18
GLEN:
Thomas Hardy.
DIGGORY:
Is there anything left to say about
that maudlin bore?
GLEN:
Excuse me but there is nothing dull
about Hardy. That is a
misconception.
TESS:
At least you’ve been published. I’m
seething with envy; I’d love to be
published.
EUSTACIA:
I publish myself on the internet.
TESS:
Oh, do you earn money doing that?
EUSTACIA:
No.
GLEN:
So what do you write?
EUSTACIA:
Lesbian crime.

Casey drops a potato in Glen’s wine.
EUSTACIA (CONT'D)
I’m here picking up tips from the
master.
GOLDENROD REVISIONS 20.10.09 10.
19 INT. EVENING. STONEFIELD - DOWNSTAIRS. 19
The door to the garden is open, letting in the eveing air.
Nicholas is waiting for Beth by the mirror. He is full of
unease - but can’t help finding himself handsome. His phone
bleeps; a text. He reads it anxiously.
NICHOLAS:
(calling)
Beth, why don’t I just pop out on
my own?
Beth, determined to force things, comes downstairs.
BETH:
But I’m ready. Come on.
She’s on her way to join him.
NICHOLAS:
Is that - I mean - are you wearing
that?
BETH:
Oh.
NICHOLAS:
Just looks a bit... hot.
Now Beth knows she is right. She takes her jacket off,
gutted.
NICHOLAS (CONT'D)
You know, Haddition’s always packed
with pissed Londonites on a Friday. I
doubt we’ll get a table anyway. Let’s
do it properly next week; make an
occasion. I’m always taking you for
granted. I’m vile I know; you should
kick me really, but
He’s about to leave. Beth speaks calmly.
BETH:
Who is she?
The question hangs in the air. Nicholas’ smile is frozen.
NICHOLAS:
What?
For a moment, he tries to find a lie.
NICHOLAS (CONT'D)
Oh come on, Beth.
BETH:
Tell me. Who?
GOLDENROD REVISIONS 20.10.09 11.
NICHOLAS:
Look, it’s nothing. It’s been once
or twice, that’s all. Beth, it’s
not anything.
