:04:03
Now I have a small
disappointment for you.
:04:05
Perhaps you're aware of it already.
:04:08
For the first time in 58 years...
:04:11
...Mr. Chipping has been unable
to attend first-day assembly.
:04:15
Chips, and you'll allow me
to refer to him as Chips...
:04:18
...seeing that 37 years ago
this autumn...
:04:21
...he gave me a thrashing
for sheer bone laziness.
:04:28
Well, Chips has a cold.
:04:30
And a cold can be quite a serious thing
for a young fellow of 83.
:04:35
So Dr. Merivale has ordered him
to stay at home.
:04:38
It was quite a battle.
:04:41
But our old friend was
finally induced to surrender...
:04:44
... and he is now sitting, under
violent protest, by his own fireside.
:05:09
- Oh, sir. Sorry, sir.
- What is this? A scrimmage?
:05:12
No, sir. I'm looking for assembly.
:05:15
Oh, are you? So am I.
Hang onto my tail. Come on.
:05:27
Locked out.
:05:30
Well, I'll be...
:05:35
Well, we'll have to wait.
That's all there is to it.
:05:48
- So you're a stinker?
- A stinker, sir?
:05:52
A new boy. That is what we call
them here. "Stinkers."
:05:55
- What's your name?
- I'm Dorset, sir.
:05:57
Duke of Dorset? I taught your father.
He was always late. Always late.
