:18:01
This house will be merrier
now that she's here.
:18:04
- Thank you.
- Beaufort, pull up that tuffet.
:18:07
I want a good gossip.
:18:09
You already know about May and me.
:18:11
She scolded me for not telling you.
:18:14
Of course I know, and I'm so glad.
:18:16
One doesn't tell such news
first in a crowd.
:18:20
Careful there.
:18:22
Don't catch your ring on your sleeve.
:18:24
Goodbye.
:18:28
Goodbye.
:18:31
Come and see me someday.
:18:36
It's a mistake for Ellen to parade up
5th Avenue with Julius...
:18:40
...at the crowded hour...
:18:42
...the very day after her arrival.
:18:45
He's so flagrant. Even his wife
must know about Annie Ring.
:19:00
Sillerton Jackson enjoyed his
frequent visits to the Archer home...
:19:04
...more than the actual dining.
:19:07
Newland Archer's mother...
:19:09
...and his sister Janey were both
shy women and shrank from society.
:19:13
But they liked to be well-informed
and doted on their bachelor friend.
:19:18
Certain nuances escape Beaufort.
:19:20
Necessarily.
Beaufort is a vulgar man.
:19:24
Not in business. Most of New York
trusts him with its affairs.
:19:29
My Grandfather Newland
always told Mother:
:19:31
"Don't let that Beaufort
be introduced to the girls."
:19:37
At least he's had the advantage
of association with gentlemen.
:19:40
The Archers and the Mingotts
were the sturdiest branches...
:19:44
...of New York's tangled family tree.
:19:47
Granny Mingott's family could
embrace May's traditionalism...
:19:51
...and tolerate Ellen's
unconventionality.
:19:54
But Archer's family held fast
to the old ways.
:19:58
His mother and sister relied
on him for every security.
