Can I unbutton the dress?
Oh, yes. Please.
- You aren't English, are you?
- No, miss. I'm Italian.
And this is the Italian room.
That surely cannot be coincidence.
No, miss. I came here
with an Italian lady.
40 years ago.
This was her room.
Hello!
You're Lavinia, aren't you?
Shouldn't you be in bed?
What's the matter? Couldn't you sleep?
Were you frightened?
There's nothing to be frightened of.
Show me what a brave girl
you are and go back to bed.
Would you try if I go with you?
Yes.
Come along, then.
There, you see! There's
nothing to be afraid of.
Now, into bed with you.
Oh, cold toes!
Down quickly.
Who are you?
I'm your Aunt Blanche.
I've come to look after you.
Do you think you're going to like me?
Listen, Lavinia, you try and
go to sleep like a good girl.
I'll leave the door open so you can see
the light from the passage. Will that do?
Come in.
Uncle Simon, can Lavinia
have a candle for her bedroom?
Sit down, please.
I should tell you, Blanche,
I don't wish you to make
a mollycoddle of Lavinia.
I shall ask you to look
upon yourself as a governess.
- A kind one but a strict one.
- Yes, Uncle.
I shall also ask you to undertake the
supervision of the household in general.
In return I shall provide you with your
wardrobe and an allowance of 25 a year.
And another thing, Blanche.
You already met our
steward Philip Thorn.
He's not a very pleasant fellow
and he has a grievance
which makes him even less so.
I only employ him
because of an obligation.
Surely he can have no
grievance against you, Uncle?
I'll explain very frankly
what it is, Blanche.
This property came to us because the last
of the Furys, Adam Fury, had no children.
I say he had no children. I should
say he had no legitimate children.
He had indeed some romantic
adventure with an Italian woman.
He has, of course, no
claim at all to the estate.
But as I say, he cherishes a grievance.
I think you're very kind
to keep him on, Uncle.
Oh, he runs this place extremely
well. But he's inclined to be familiar.
Remember that he's a servant.
I shall certainly treat him as such.
Is he in?
Good afternoon, Mr. Thorn.
And what brings you here?
The fact that I'm tired
of waiting, Mr. Calamy.
You know, my friend, I
asked you to be patient.
Patient!
Would you be patient, employed
on an estate that should be yours?
But, Mr. Thorn, we have yet to
prove that it should be your estate.
That's what I'm waiting for you to do.
Are you handling this case or aren't you?
Mr. Thorn, I told you many years
ago when you first came to me
that we had very little
to rest your case on.
