Yes, I suppose so.
Well...
-Elsa, I'm glad you were able to come.
-Your message said it was urgent.
It is.
What's the matter?
My brother arrives in Calcutta today.
-How do you know?
-Word came through from headquarters.
Now you'll understand
why it was so urgent for me to see you.
Geoffrey's coming here.
Elsa, there's something I must know.
-You do love me, don't you?
-Oh, Perry.
I know we both try to be loyal to Geoffrey
by hiding our real feelings...
...but now he's coming back
and we can't go on pretending.
You do love me, don't you?
Oh, Perry, I've tried so hard not to,
but I do love you.
-I knew it.
-But I'm still engaged to him.
We must tell him when he gets here.
I must tell him, it's my responsibility.
When he knows how we feel,
he won't stand in our way.
-Suppose he doesn't understand?
-He will.
Darling, I know him better than anyone.
I've got to tell him.
It's the only decent thing to do.
Yes.
Yes, it is.
I must be getting back.
Father will be worrying about me.
Yes, you're right.
Will I see you tonight at the ball?
Yes, Perry. Tonight.
It's only now that the strategic importance
of the situation becomes apparent.
The safety of the northwest
hinges on Lohara...
...the base for the three advance garrisons,
of which Chukoti is the most important.
Therefore, two of our ablest officers
must command at Lohara and Chukoti.
I'd have to transfer Woodward...
...because I'm afraid he's too well on
in years for an active command.
With the Surat Khan
just across the Suristan border...
...in the position to make the approach
to the pass uncomfortable...
...I feel confident that with you,
Campbell, at Chukoti...
...and you, Warrenton, at Lohara...
...we should be able to handle
any aggressive complication that may arise.
-Captain Vickers, Sir.
-Show him in.
-Yes, Sir.
-Just a moment.
-Captain Vickers reporting for duty, Sir.
-Been expecting you, Vickers.
on a very important mission.
Oh, splendid, Sir.
You're going on an expedition to buy
cavalry horses in the Tartar countries.
Does that mean
we're preparing for war?
Whatever it means, you are
to deliver the horses you purchased...
...to our fleet at Batum,
on the Black Sea.
From there they are to be shipped
to the Crimea.
-That clear?
-Yes, Sir.
Oh, Warrenton, Campbell,
you know Vickers.
Yes, of course. Geoffrey, my boy,
how very nice to see you.
Glad to see you too, Sir.
-How do you do, Vickers?
-How do you do, Sir?
-Have you seen Elsa?
-No, not yet, Sir. How is she?
-She'll be very happy to see you, I know.
-I can hardly wait until I see her either.
-Good morning, Sir.
