1:37:01
not even you, dear Emilie,
1:37:04
and that is respect
for the temporal gifts.

1:37:08
I think you've misunderstood
an essential point, dearest Henrietta.

1:37:12
But I suggest we postpone this discussion
to a more suitable time.

1:37:16
Forgive me, dear Emilie.
I am forgetting myself.

1:37:20
I'm sure you're a more capable
housewife than I.

1:37:22
I'll ask your advice in all things.
1:37:25
Edvard has admonished me
a hundred times.

1:37:29
It's not easy to realize
1:37:32
one has become superfluous!
1:37:35
That will do, Henrietta.
1:37:57
Perhaps I may be allowed to share
1:38:00
that we are early risers in this house,
both weekdays and Sundays.

1:38:05
At 6:00 we gather
for morning prayers in Edvard's study.

1:38:09
I'd also like to mention that we make
our own beds and tidy our rooms.

1:38:14
In this house, punctuality,
cleanliness and order are the rule.

1:38:18
Don't be alarmed, children.
1:38:20
My sister makes it sound
worse than it actually is.

1:38:23
We'll start out very gently.
1:38:25
I'm not sure I understand.
1:38:27
If you mean to apply
a new method of upbringing -

1:38:30
Not at all, dear Emilie.
1:38:34
I'm convinced that the children
will soon realize

1:38:37
how fun it is to perform
one's duties conscientiously.

1:38:40
It's all to be like a game.
1:38:43
My children don't care
for that sort of game,

1:38:46
and neither do I.
1:38:47
Time will tell, dear Emilie.
