5. Let's Have Another Look at Your Past Perfect (第1季)【完整台词】

1 ANNE LISTER: Rawson's men are stealing significant amounts of coal.

I've told you before, it's a nasty business.

She's bluffing about sinking her own pits because how could she possibly afford it? Miss Walker will let Miss Lister dip into her purse, and whatever else she's been letting her dip into.

- LISTER: What's the matter? - ANN WALKER: I've had a letter.

- LISTER: From? - WALKER: Mr.

Ainsworth.

I think he wants to marry me.

LISTER: You're going to have to make a decision.

There's clearly more to it than you're able or willing to tell me.

WALKER: He already thinks I'm his, and I couldn't tell anybody bacause he said it would reflect just as badly on me as it did on him! LISTER: He took advantage of you.

WALKER: What are you going to do to him? I haven't decided yet.

[TV STATIC DRONES] [BRIGHT TONE] [BRIGHT MUSIC] Anne? Good morning.

[SIGHS] What time is it? 22 minutes past 10:00.

Is it? [SIGHS] How are you feeling? [MOANS] I had the same pain here - Here.

- All night.

[SIGHS] I heard the clock strike 5:00, and then I don't know.

Exhaustion must've got the better of me.

How long have you been here? Not long.

I sat with Miss Parkhill at breakfast, during which we had a very polite skirmish about which one of us would come up and see if you were awake.

Hmm.

I won.

[SOFT MUSIC] I'm wondering if perhaps you shouldn't say anything to Mr.

Ainsworth, should he if he turns up on the doorstep.

Why? I think he'll be angry.

Well, he will be angry if he thought that I'd told someone else about what went on.

Angry? Embarrassed, humiliated.

You did absolutely the right thing to tell me about what went on.

And if that makes him angry, embarrassed, or humiliated bad luck.

Why don't you get washed and dressed, come downstairs? It'll make you feel brighter.

[WATER SPLASHING] I was going to ask.

What? Could I borrow some money? It's just a temporary thing a temporary loan.

I'm going to sink a coal pit.

[CHUCKLES] How much? Of course you can.

[JAUNTY MUSIC] Gentleman Jack 1x05 Let's Have Another Look at Your Past Perfect I was hoping, while I'm here, to see Miss Walker.

I hope you don't think it appears unfeeling or indecorous, me coming here so soon after, um The event.

But I have scrutinized my conscience, and I am persuaded that Mrs.

Ainsworth would've been disappointed if I'd postponed my meeting with the church trustees here on her account.

Life goes on.

You echo what I know would have been her sentiments.

I've collected together a few items I imagined Miss Walker might like.

Brought the drawing room scrapbook as a memento of one particularly happy visit.

She isn't well, Miss Walker, since the news of your wife's death came.

It seems to have hit her very hard.

Oh, I am sorry.

She was obviously very fond of her.

Well, yes, that explains I wrote her after the event and received no reply.

All the more reason to call in and offer what comfort I can.

I'm sure she'd be pleased to see you.

Her Aunt Walker at Cliffhill invited Miss Harriet Parkhill to stay with her for a few weeks to keep her company.

So there'd be no impropriety if you wanted to drop in.

[DOOR CLICKS OPEN] Oh, well done, Miss Lister! You've persuaded the invalid downstairs.

Shall we order some fresh tea? Yes.

Let's do that, Miss Parkhill.

And a note arrived for you, Ann.

The Priestleys' servant brought it from New House.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC] Ah, Miss Walker acknowledges receipt of my note.

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY] And she says she is too Ill to receive guests.

As I say, it has hit her really very hard.

Are you all right? I thought it might comfort us both, a chance to reminisce.

Of all people, I thought she might Oh.

See me.

I'm sorry.

I am so sorry.

I barely know you, and you've been so kind, and here I am, just crying like a child.

Are you sure you feel up to this meeting with the church trustees tomorrow afternoon, Mr.

Ainsworth? It can be postponed.

No.

I'm determined.

It's, uh it's what Mrs.

Ainsworth would have wanted.

When Miss Walker used to visit us, my wife, more than once, she would say only in fun, you understand "Whenever anything happens to me, Miss Walker, you must look after Thomas.

" We laughed.

And yet the three of us were such kind friends, I do wonder now if she meant it and if it gave her some comfort to think that after she was gone Perhaps, Mr.

Ainsworth, if you were to parcel up the drawing room scrapbook and whatever else you brought with you to give to Miss Walker in remembrance and sent it to her with a kind note, it would Yes! Perhaps she does feel the impropriety of a visit so soon, but Small steps, Mr.

Ainsworth.

Small steps.

I agree.

Well, there isn't She isn't [SIGHS] There isn't someone else.

I wouldn't be intruding - on someone else's - No.

No, no.

No one else.

You wouldn't be intruding at all, Mr.

Ainsworth.

Quite the opposite.

The first thing to understand, Miss Parkhill, about Monsieur Cuvier is that he sets aside the biblical interpretation about how life on Earth began and pursues a more scientific understanding.

But does he not worry that that makes him a heretic? No.

It's curious.

Some of the most talented scientific men I've ever met are also some of the most profoundly religious.

[CHUCKLES] The more we understand about what complex and sophisticated beings we are, the more in awe of our creator we become, surely.

What made you pursue this man in Paris? Did he not think you were extraordinary? [BELL RINGING] Morning, sir.

Could I leave this for Miss Walker? Now, I know she's feeling under the weather and isn't receiving guests, per se, but could you tell her that Mr.

Ainsworth is here? Reverend Thomas Ainsworth.

Is that him? [KNOCK AT DOOR] [DOOR CLICKS OPEN] Ma'am, the Reverend Thomas Ainsworth is at the door.

He brought this parcel for you.

And he's asking if he might see you for just a few moments.

No.

I'm ill.

I'm not receiving visitors, other than these two, and perhaps you could remind him he was sent a note to that effect only this morning.

Yes, ma'am.

Sorry, ma'am.
