:02:00
Wouldn't dare, Mrs Leiningen.
Very tough man, your husband.
:02:05
I haven't had a chance to ask before,
but how well do you know Mr Leiningen?
:02:11
I brought him upriver on this same boat
about 15 years ago.
:02:15
1886. July '86.
:02:19
What kind of man is he?
:02:23
I beg your pardon?
:02:25
What is Mr Leiningen like?
:02:27
I thought you were his wife,
Mrs Leiningen?
:02:30
I am, but i've never seen him.
:02:33
You've never seen your husband?
:02:38
I know it's not polite to ask questions,
and i won't,
:02:41
so i'd better get back to my work
before i can't stand it.
:02:48
The captain's confused.
:02:50
I've been asking questions about
my husband. Now it's your turn.
:02:54
We're getting close to
your husband's land.
:02:56
It begins just beyond that next bend.
:02:58
I'd better start getting my things together.
:03:01
There's no hurry. We won't reach
his dock until tomorrow.
:03:05
- Is it that large?
- There's more to it than size.
:03:09
This is another world, Mrs Leiningen.
:03:11
Beyond that bend, your husband
has more power than a king.
:03:19
You know about me, don't you?
:03:21
You haven't mentioned it the whole trip,
but i think you know all about me.
:03:27
Your name was Joanna Selby. You're 25
years old. You come from New Orleans.
:03:31
You married by proxy.
You've never seen each other.
:03:34
You know a great deal.
:03:36
When your part of the marriage
ceremony was performed,
:03:39
Mr Leiningen's brother acted in his place.
:03:41
When the ceremony was performed
here, i took your place. I was good.
:03:45
I also performed the ceremony.
:03:48
You're almost one of the family.
:03:50
As commissioner of this area for my
government, i have to know everything,
:03:54
and besides, i'm what you call nosy.
:03:58
Will you be stopping off
at my husband's place?
