LUCILLE:
Oh. I was rather hoping it might be
you, Susy. Or you, Clara. So I
could try them all on and you could
tell me if ... And you could see
our chandeliers and feel how thick
the carpets are ...
DENISE:
If you would care for a morning
fitting at home, Mrs Ballentine,
that can of course be arranged.
LUCILLE:
Yes. I like the sound of a fitting.
We could have tea and scones. Oh,
but perhaps scones are only eaten
in the afternoon?
DENISE:
My apologies, Ma’am, what I meant
to say was:
an afternoon fitting.She’s made LUCILLE laugh. Still she doesn’t want to leave.
MORAY and DUDLEY are passing through.
6.
DUDLEY:
Of course we must mark the
occasion. Window displays, flags
and bunting throughout the place --
Paradise, hung from the ceilings.
All manner of decorations.
MORAY:
I appreciate the sentiment, Dudley,
but are these times for us to revel
in our position?
DUDLEY:
Every bright bauble will be a poke
in the eye of Tom Weston. I like
the thought of him seeing what we
have achieved here.
MORAY:
Yes. Then let us do it.
6 INT. THE THREE CROWNS - NIGHT 6
EDMUND is at the bar with SAM and MYRTLE when DENISE comes in
with SUSY and CLARA.
DENISE:
Uncle Edmund, that’s the third
night I have found you in here.
Audrey will be wondering where you
are.
EDMUND:
Don’t fret, our Denise. Hell’s
teeth. I sent her a note to say I’m
on my way.
SAM:
Far be it for me to interfere in
another man’s marriage, but ...
Wouldn’t it have been better if
you’d taken the note yourself?
SUSY:
Yes. Then you would have been there
so you wouldn’t have needed a note
to say why you’re not there.
They ALL look at her as they figure this one out.
And SUSY is trying to fathom it herself.
MYRTLE:
Have a sit down, Susy. Rest your
mind a while.
7.
CLARA:
You must admit, Mr. Lovett, youdon’t have any cause to stay when -EDMUND
(adamant)
Yes I do.
SAM:
I’m not one to meddle in affairs of
a marital nature, but what is yourreason, Edmund?
EDMUND:
I can’t sell my shop -- because it
looks so worn-down and decrepit. IfI paint it up, you watch me, itwill be a more agreeableproposition for any buyer. A fewdays of sweat and toil will makeall the difference. You’ll see ...
They’re joshing and teasing him, which spurs him on.
EDMUND (CONT’D)
I will prove to the lot of you I amonly here because I intend toleave!
Which brings roars of laughter.
7 INT. KATHERINE’S BEDROOM. BELVILLE HOUSE - NIGHT 7
KATHERINE wakes to find TOM standing in her room. He saysnothing: just stands there like and ghost ... and then heleaves.
KATHERINE is spooked to her bones. There will be no moresleep tonight.
8 EXT. TOLLGATE STREET - NIGHT 8
The GIRLS are heading homewards.
CLARA:
She’s done it, hasn’t she. Mrs.
Ballentine. She’s got what we all
hanker after. Bagged herself awealthy husband, living the grandlife.
SUSY:
I don’t. I want a kind husband.
