I Capture the Castle Page #4

- No.

I mean, they were incredibly

well-turned-out,

but not naturally

good-looking, like some people.

- Miss Cassandra?

- I wished you'd stop calling me "Miss."

It's just not the way things are anymore.

The first day we ever came here,

my mother said that you

and Miss Rose were young ladies

and that I ought

to address you respectfully.

You always did.

She said that I was never to presume.

Would I...

Would I be presuming if I asked

you to come for a walk with me?

When?

When the bluebells are out.

No, you wouldn't.

The very thought of you

And I forget to do

I'll practice this one for next time.

It uses the keys that don't stick.

The very thought of you

Rose thinks she gave an

irresistible performance.

I ought to tell her the truth,

but I can't bear to.

She's the only woman in the house

with a smile on her face.

And everyone ought to do

Pass the salt, Rose.

Pass the salt.

Pass the salt,

pass the salt, pass the salt.

Rose!

You know he's got a perforated eardrum!

And I suppose he'll go deaf now, or die,

and I'll be held responsible!

Stop it, stop it!

When will you learn

to control yourselves?

I haven't lost my temper for years!

Just as well, when you think

what happened last time.

That's enough, Rose.

You don't think they found out

about Father, do you?

No, I'm sure they didn't.

How could they?

So why didn't they come back?

I went out of my way to be

flirtatious and provocative.

That's what men are meant to like.

There's no way out now, is there, Cassie?

- Calm down.

- I'm quite calm.

I'm quite calm, thank you.

Just shut up! Just shut up!

- Sit down and stop all this noise!

- No, I won't sit down.

Stop it!

Stop it!

And I posit to you, my

lord, that to kill one's wife

with a cake knife would be an

extraordinarily tedious business

involving sawing her to death.

Take him down.

We've been living in a boarding house.

Only for four months.

It won't happen again.

Girls?

Girls? Girls!

Aunt Millicent is dead

and she has left you

a portion of her wardrobe.

I hope it's the door.

But furs? She hated furs.

And what are they doing

in a shop? They're not new.

The lawyers put them in cold storage.

I'd give up everything I have for a

little bright suit and suede accessories.

Come on.

I'd give up everything.

Rose, can you smell bluebells?

I can smell heaven.

I'll take a dozen pairs, please.

Rose!

Come on.

I look like a bear.

It is bear, madam,

and young madam's is monkey.

How much do you think they're worth?

If I might point out, madam,

this is a high-class department store.

We do not deal in second-hand goods.

We only refrigerate

the furs of favored clients.

Aunt Millicent had a house
