:42:06
Well.
Thank you, Miss Brodie.
:42:10
I feel sure you and I have come
to understand each other better.
:42:13
I'm always
at your command, Miss Mackay.
:42:15
I am delighted
to hear it.
:42:17
Good day, Miss Brodie.
:42:20
Oh, chrysanthemums.
:42:24
Such serviceable flowers.
Mmm.
:42:33
May I have a word with you,
Miss Gaunt?
:42:42
Miss Gaunt, you are, of course,
aware of the problem...
:42:46
when a teacher has tenure
and the loyalty of her pupils.
:42:51
It's not going to
be easy, Miss Gaunt.
:42:53
However, no doubt,
in due time...
:42:56
some advantage will
be vouchsafed us.
:42:58
In the meanwhile, I would deem it
a sincere service to the school...
:43:02
if any indiscretion
that might reach your ears...
:43:06
should also reach mine.
:43:08
Also, your brother...
:43:11
is a deacon of Cramond Kirk,
is he not...
:43:13
and naturally eager
to preserve its sanctity?
:43:20
Thank you, Miss Gaunt.
:43:41
What are you writing?
:43:45
"My dear, delightful Gordon...
:43:48
"your letter has moved me deeply,
as you may imagine.
:43:50
"But, alas, I must ever decline
to be Mrs. Lowther.
:43:53
"My reasons
are twofold...
:43:55
"I am dedicated to my girls,
as is madame Pavlova...
:43:58
"and there is another
in my life.
