- Good evening Chris.

- Good Evening, Nick.

How much credit you allow him?

I trust enough to make him happy

Beatrice

Oh, good.

Call him.

Pair of kings?

Three sixes.

One moment.

Why? What's the matter?

How many sixes of diamonds

are there in this pack?

No wonder your luck turned.

Cheating like a clumsy pot boy

I apologize I've never done that before.

You whine and call until

I let you play on credit

I had to play.

You played your last game here, get out.

Just a minute you left some wine

Willy, show Mr Hatton out.

I think I know my own way

I'm sorry, gentlemen, I shouldn't

have let him play.

Sit down.

- Who is dealing?

- I've finished tonight.

We haven't yet started,

Fennell you are not going.

Thanks, I had enough

Stephen.

The cursed gentleman he got off lightly.

It's no good, I don't

like your manners Nick.

Thank you.

- Where is Mrs Helmar?

- I don't know, Sir

Fred.

Where's your missus?

I haven't seen Mrs Helmar

since dinner, Sir.

Where is Mr Sedley?

I haven't seen Mr Sedley either, Sir.

Not since dinner

Beatrice

Beatrice.

What are you doing up this hour?

I'm just going to bed.

Where's your mother?

I don't know.

Where is your mother?

She's gone into the garden.

Go to bed

Nick I..

Nick.

No.

No.

Stop.

- Don't you see you're killing him.

- Why not?

I love him.

That's no reason. How long

has this been going on?

Since June

I knew your mind, I didn't think you dare?

I hate you I've hated you for years.

I knew there was someone

I'm going away with him.

I shan't stop you.

Mrs Helmar is never to

enter this house again.

See that all the servants know that.

What do they care? What cart

wanting in a week they say.

We are all at her pity.

But it's all we can pay.

Tell him your children are starving,

and what do they say?

Your children, why aren't so many?

I tell you, Tom Woodroofe while we

sticks to talking they sticks to talking.

And talk don't fill no man's belly.

Does burning their ricks fill your belly?

Maybe we will not stop at ricks.

Burn down their houses, I think we can do.

If you start burning ricks and

houses they call out the soldiers.

How are you to fight against them?

I'll fight anyway and I won't

lie down like a dog.

Now listen to us.

I know that women and children

starving that's got to stop.

But rioting and rick burning

won't stop anything.

What will then?

Reason and justice.

Where is your reason and

justice coming from, Tom?

From the farmers and landowners.

Tell them how things stand

and they'll help us.

We've got to put up our

case to all of them.

We got to speak up there.

Do no evil and put our trust in the Lord

I'm for starting round the landlords now.
